What does the Bible say about the prophecy of Christ's coming?

The prophecies concerning the coming of Christ are central to understanding God's revelation to humanity. Isaiah 9:6-7 describes Him as a child who will be born and will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. These titles highlight Christ's dual nature as both God and man, His roles in redemption, and His sovereign rule. Throughout the Old Testament, these prophecies imbued God’s people with hope and expectation as they awaited the fulfillment of God's promise through the Messiah.
