Jesus of Nazareth, indeed, fulfilled the shadows of the spring Appointed
Times with perfect precision in their timing and substance some 2,000 years
ago, proving beyond a shadow of doubt that He is the Messiah of God.

"Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it
remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit."
