"...but that doesn't answer my question."

I did answer that, because they contradicted the Bible, or core elements thereof.

Here are some of them, they can be entertaining. -> Link

"I don't see how it would support my story at all."

If your story contained an account of how Boomberg's predecessor was a cross-dressing RINO, it would be hard to believe. Then, of course, the archaeologist finds a picture of Rudy.

"He was their Messiah wasn't he?"

Yes, and I will not let you drag me into a fight with the Jews over this, so quit asking me why they aren't Christians.

"What is the specific scripture that unambiguously foretold of the coming of Jesus."

There are many, but my favorite is Isaiah 9:1-7.

Thank you for the link. I had no idea that there were so many 'writings' that could have been included in the Bible. I thought you had been talking about the extra books the Catholics include.

If your story contained an account of how Boomberg's predecessor was a cross-dressing RINO, it would be hard to believe. Then, of course, the archaeologist finds a picture of Rudy.

LOL Sometimes truth can be stranger than fiction.

I looked up your scripture that is supposed to be an unambiguous prophecy of Christ.

6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this.

I can certainly see why the Jews didn't think that Jesus fulfilled that prophecy. Especially the part, "from that time on and forever". Also if I recall correctly there were lots and lots of 'Christs' at the time all claiming to be God.

I was honestly hoping for a little clearer Prophecy, not one that is open to a ton of misinterpretation.
