To Christians:
What passage or passages convince you that Jesus is the Messiah?
And are the passages upheld by the Hebrew scriptures?

Shouldnt we first decide from which of many bibles we would take the verses ?

KJV 1607 Original anyone ?

“If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. But if you drown a man in a fish pond, he will never have to go hungry again🐟

"Only Experts in Reformed Egyptian should be allowed to critique the Book of Mormon❗"

"Joseph Smith can't possibly have been a deceiver.
For if he had been, the Angel Moroni never would have taken the risk of enthrusting him with the Golden Plates❗"

I'd say that is a pointless question.Indoctrinated Dogma convinced them Jesus was the messiah; what they were told. Maybe they found something to back that up in the Bible,maybe not, but I would guess that mostly the conviction came before thet y even opened the Bible. And even not the expected Flood of convincing Bible -passages seems a bit sparse... O:)

At the risk of a use mention error I give you these verses.
Matthew 16:15-17

15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
2 Timothy 1:9 KJV

9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
John 6:65 KJV

65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
Romans 8:30 KJV

30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
1 Corinthians 2:14 KJV

14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
