Did you know that the Crucifixion of Jesus Proves that God Exists?

While Jesus was dying on the cross - He called out the first line of Psalm 22 which was written five hundred years earlier. Jesus quoted Psalm 22 to signify that the prophecy in the Psalm was being fulfilled. In recorded history, the only parallel for the prophecy in Psalm 22 is the crucifixion of Jesus. Only God could know the specifics of the death of a single person that would change the world five hundred years before it happened. Jesus fulfilled Psalm 22 by dying on the cross so that you would know that God exists!
