Messianc Prophecies are those portions of the Bible that declare attributes of the Messiah to be realized in future fulfillment. The two branches in the stream of messianic prophecy are 1) the prophecies of a Kingly Messiah and 2) the prophecies of a Suffering Messiah. In the case of Jesus Christ, many messianic prophecies of a Suffering Messiah were fulfilled when by his life during the early years of the first century A.D.
