So, according to the New Testament authors, “ALL” of the prophets of old should have testified of the coming of Christ. Where are ALL those records in the Old Testament? Who were they, and what did they say?
And, the NT authors also claim that those prophets of old who testified of Christ were stoned and killed because of it. Where are those records? Who were they? Who succeeded at erasing this OT history?
How could a real Christian contend that the Bible is the complete, the full word of God, the ONLY scripture in existence, infallible, or any similar argument? It was obviously censored and altered.
Who were these prophets that knew about the coming of Jesus Christ? Where are their prophecies? Wouldn’t we want them?
How do Christians reject most of the Apocrypha found and also The Book of Mormon? These writings afirm the NT claims and match the missing Christian themes we should expect from the OT. How can they be discredited for being “too Christian” and said to be “not historical” when the NT says that they should exist?
Matthew 23:37 (Jesus speaking): “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!”
Matthew 23:29-31: “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.”
Acts 3:18 (Peter’s sermon): “But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.”
Acts 3:21-24: “Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.
