WANT TO KNOW THE FUTURE? [1 of 5] The Bible contains 2500 prophecies, of which about 2000 have already come true. Just as there were 300 Bible prophecies successfully predicting Christ’s First Coming to earth, there are another 300 telling us about Jesus’ soon Second Coming. However, I don't care how nifty you are with a calculator, or deciphering the constellations, the Bible lets us know that no one will know the day, nor the hour, even though we are given signs to know when the time is close. Let me give you a quick look at some of those prophecies, so you can judge whether they are lining up now: Israel will return to the land, become a nation again, become a united nation again in one day, become a powerful military, their currency will go back to the shekel (happened in 1980), they will become a source of world conflict, and they will blossom as a rose in the desert (it used to be barren, lifeless land but now they are the breadbasket of the Middle East). With the source of world conflict, I think it's funny that people wonder how we can know when the time of Jesus' return is close. Well, just turn on your TV, right? What is on the news so many nights? It's little, bitty, teeny, tiny Israel as a source of conflict for the whole world. That's Bible prophecy! Here are more predictions from the Bible: Israel will rebuild the temple, which they are ready for and want to do that right now. The world will see an increase in travel, knowledge, unrest, earthquakes, famines, pestilence, war, strange events in the sky, global catastrophes, a false Christ, false teachers, and increased wickedness. Hey, it's a good thing we see none of those signs today, right? Wrong! They all either happened or are being fulfilled today!
