How do we know the fulfillment of prophecies about Jesus is true?

Answered in 1 source

The fulfillment of prophecies regarding Jesus' first coming was precise and documented, demonstrating God's sovereignty.

The fulfillment of prophecies regarding Jesus, especially in His entry into Jerusalem, serves as a testament to the truth of Scripture. For instance, in Matthew 21:4-5, the specific details of His riding into Jerusalem on a donkey exemplify the exactitude with which God's Word is fulfilled. This reflects not only historical accuracy but also divine sovereignty; prophecies spoken over five hundred years prior came to fruition in Christ's life. Moreover, the literary and purposeful method in which these fulfillments are recorded escalates the conviction that the same God who fulfilled His promises then will also fulfill those regarding Christ's second coming. This expectation underlines the unwavering reliability of God’s promises throughout Scripture.
