Bridging The Gap is an attempt to clarify the Biblical Story of the prophecy concerning the promised Messiah fulfilled in the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem. The lineage promised to Abraham was through his seed, and this is clearly recorded in genealogy of Jesus by St. Matthew 1:1-17. Jacob foretold that the descendants of Judah would be the Tribe through whom Kingship will pass (Genesis 49:8-12), and the Gospels show this to be fulfilled (Matt. 1:2-3; Luke 3:33). The Messiah promised would be God in the Flesh (Isaiah 9:6-7)these all important names given to the Messiah reveal His deity. St. John tells us that the Messiah is God among us in the flesh (John 1:1-14).
