The “anointed one” translated ”Messiah” or “Christ” came as God’s prophets of old told long before and He did dwell among us and was raised up on a tree to suffer and die for my sins and yours.
They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. Psalm 22:13-18 This around 1,000 years before Christ entered time and space for you and me.
