Shadowing Practice: Was Jesus really the Messiah foretold in prophecy? - Learn English Speaking with Video

Creando lección...
1
Over the course of this entire series of Drive Through History,
2
we've mentioned ancient prophecies about a future Messiah that the Gospels say were fulfilled in the life,
3
ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
4
Remarkably, scholars count hundreds of these prophecies in the Hebrew Scriptures, over 300 in fact.
5
Even more remarkable, these predictions were made by multiple authors over the course of about a thousand year time period.
6
When the resurrected Jesus was eating fish with his disciples on the Sea of Galilee, he reminded them of the things that had happened during his ministry.
7
For the first time, Jesus opened their eyes to all the prophecies that had been fulfilled by him.
8
He said, This is what I told you while I was still with you.
9
Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.
10
Luke 24, 44.
11
Again, we're talking about Jesus being the fulfillment of over 300 prophecies without missing a single note.
12
The odds of that happening by chance are zero.
13
And so for any person to fulfill them all, it would take their circumstances being divinely orchestrated.
14
In fact, that is the claim of the Gospels.
15
Now, while many of the prophecies of the future Messiah were general in nature, some were very specific, like where the Messiah would be born and how he would die.
16
The Messiah will be a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Judah, of the house of David.
17
He will be conceived by a virgin, born in Bethlehem, and taken to Egypt as a child.
18
The Messiah will be heralded by the messenger of the Lord and anointed by the Holy Spirit to minister in Galilee,
19
perform miracles, and preach good news.
20
He will cleanse the temple, enter Jerusalem as a king riding on a donkey, be rejected by the Jewish people,
21
and betrayed by a friend for 30 pieces of silver.
22
The Messiah will die a humiliating death involving rejection, mocking, beating, the piercing of his hands and feet
23
and the piercing of his side he will be crucified with thieves
24
and his executioners will cast lots for his clothing they will give him gall
25
and vinegar to drink but unlike the other victims none of his bones will be broken
26
in the end he will be buried in a rich man's tomb but will rise from the dead and ascend into heaven.
27
We'll be right back.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
