Robert Campbell tells us the gospel from the Old Testament.
The Messiah is God, he is the everlasting Father1 and being God he has always existed.2,3 He was there at the creation.3
Christ’s birth
Born of a virgin,4 in Bethlehem2 surrounded by women weeping bitterly for dead children,5 begotten of God,6 born in the normal way,2 he has no air of majesty to make him desirable.7 Born as a Jewish8 child,1 a descendant of David,9 who David calls Lord,10 he is God’s son.9,6 For a while he will be lower than the angels,11 but he is righteous and brings salvation with him.12 God will put his Spirit upon him,13 he is a servant in whom God delights.6
