Baneeshkhan, all the important facts on the life of Jesus Christ is based on the prophcies on the Bible on his birth, life, crucifixion, and resurection. The Bible is not just only focused on the law of Moses and the history of Israel in the time of the Bible, but on the prophets and what they have said about Jesus and his life, from birth, to death, and to resurection.

The most important of these prophecies were of his crucifixion and resurrection. Isaiah spoke of Jesus as being the "suffering servant ". It is written in Isaiah chapters 52:12-53:12 and is read in Christian churches on Good Friday. Psalm 22, which includes the words that Jesus said, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? " is another prophecy on one of the last seven words of Jesus.

The Bible is true because what was said about Jesus was realized. Also in the gospel of John, chapter 19:31-37, proves that Jesus did suffer and die on the cross because not only was two prophcies fullfilled, "not to brake any of his ( Christ's ) bones", "but of looking upon him whom they have picered". There was also eyewitness testimony that had witnessed the death of Jesus on the cross. Also to add, a soldier thrust a lance into his side and what came out was both blood and water. This is the most lasting proof that Jesus suffered and died on the very same cross.

Paul later on in his letter to the Philippians said in chapter 2:6-11, speak not only on the humiliation and exaltation, in a form like a poem, most likely, an early Christian hymn speaks of Jesus in the divine form before he was willing to give up in order to take on human form. In all, the Bible proves it is not corrupt by what is written about Jesus being fullfilled.
