![WANT TO KNOW THE FUTURE? [5 of 5]
One the most significant evidences for the divine origin of the Bible is prophecy—2500 prophecies—2000 already fulfilled. It is statistically impossible for the Bible's detailed prophecies to have been fulfilled by chance, (as opposed to man compiling his guesses in a book, adding Christianese, and giving us today's false, world religion and cults). The Bible has been thoroughly verified, and explicitly warns against adding to or taking away from what God has given. The Bible repeatedly tells us to stick to the Bible and not add another word. Here are a couple examples: "You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor take away from it (Deuteronomy 4:2),” and "Whatever I command you, you shall be careful to do; you shall not add nor take away from it (Deuteronomy 12:32).” With all due respect, all false faiths outside the Bible completely go against what God just commanded there. They have constantly
added man's teachings and rewritten, chopped, and spliced God’s Word. Here is more from the Bible: "Every word of God has proven to be true. He is a shield...Do not add to His words or He will reprove you, and you will be proved a liar (Proverbs 30:5-6).” If we will only stick to God's Word in the Bible, it will be a shield to protect us from man's harmful lies and false teachers ripping us off. Here's more from Revelation 22:18-19: "I testify to everyone who hears the words this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which were written in this book; and if anyone takes away from the words of book this prophecy, God will take away his part in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are written in this book.” So God's message is this: Don't add to or take away from Scripture; leave it alone because I, God, have put my stamp of approval on it 2500 times. Isn't that good enough? Why do we have to keep going somewhere else? Just like
the Old Testament stories of the people groups constantly straying and
coming back, only to stray again, even today we are looking for some
other ideas, theories, or prophets to guide us. Why can't we just
get in the Bible and enjoy it straight from the mind of God!? | image tagged in bible,prophecy,god,future,jesus,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5iarb8.jpg)

All this Bible prophecy taking place in front of our eyes is better than Christmas! With all due respect, it's even better than a wedding; although, my marriage is strong so don't misconstrue what I'm saying. My point is this: In a healthy-engagement scenario, you would think the closer you get to the wedding day, the more exciting it gets, right? Now I know it's also hectic, and it can get stressful before Jesus comes back too, but the overall feeling is one of joyous anticipation, right? Without giving away the day or hour, and using Bible prophecy, God is letting us know what will happen in advance, so we can be sure His book came from Him
—period. It’s like this: when you were growing up, did your mom tell
you things more than once, or even more than ten times? In fact, how many times did she say, "I told you a million times..." and you were maybe thinking, "Yeah mom, you probably did because, man, here we go again..." Well, it’s the same with God: throughout the Bible, with precise predictions, (2000 of which have come true already), 2500 times He told us, “THIS BOOK CAME FROM ME!" So, why do we want to listen to anything else! God is probably thinking, "What more do I have to give you people?" But again, with all due respect to the so-called shepherds in our Church today, if they keep Bible prophecy out of their messages, it's no wonder 50% of their congregation doubts the Bible. If we'd only listen to the Bible, it would save us from a
whole lot of trouble, which includes those not saved being left
behind to go through the Seven Year Tribulation! | image tagged in bible,prophecy,future,god,jesus,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5iaqr8.jpg)
![WANT TO KNOW THE FUTURE? [3 of 5]
To know we're living in the last days, other signs the Bible gives us are the push for a one-world-government, -religion, and -economy, with the accompanying big-brother society, persecution of God's people across the whole planet, figures like the Antichrist and False Prophet rising, the technology developed to control the buying and selling across our entire world, and some Mark-of-the-Beast system to identify people through something put on their right hand and forehead. Again, God is not going to tell us the day or hour because we'd probably goof off
until the time comes; however, He is telling us when it's close, not so we can prepare for horrible times, but to encourage us by knowing the time is near when we get to see Jesus! If we love Him, aren't we longing to see Him? God knows we are longing to be with Christ, so all these prophecies are His way of saying, "Hey, Jesus will be there to rescue you soon!" Why would we run from that? I want to see Him, say thank you, and hopefully give Him a big hug. And I want to have something I've done for Him to lay at His feet. I can't wait to be part of Jesus' Millennial Kingdom! I also want to see and be a part of the New Heavens and Earth. Why wouldn't
we want to hear all the great Bible prophecy, which tells us the time is close
(again, without letting us know the specific day and hour)? | image tagged in bible,prophecy,future,god,christian,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5iaq8g.jpg)
![WANT TO KNOW THE FUTURE? [2 of 5] Another sign the Bible gives that we’re living in the last days, is that the Church will go into apostasy. For those of us looking at Bible prophecy, I think sometimes we focus on the number of earthquakes rising, wars, and rumors of war; but I want to say, "Hey, don't just look on the outside of these Church walls." If we want to know we're in the last days, the Bible tells us to look inside at our own camp. Two thousand years ago, Paul wrote to Timothy about how the Church will know when we are living those last days. What he wrote must've blown Timothy's mind. Paul basically said, "Listen, we won’t know the day or hour but imagine this: Christians will still be attending Church services but all they will get from the pulpit will be fluffy stuff and stories made up.” Paul tells Timothy the last days will involve the Church gathering around themselves teachers who will just tickle their ears ("knetho" in Greek, which means
only "pleasant things"). He says people will turn aside from the truth
and only listen to myths or stories made up ("mythois" in Greek). During the last days, Paul is saying we'll see this mindset happen in the Church. It won't just be out in the world with all that wickedness, wars, earthquakes, famines, and pestilence; Paul says the Church will only be giving us pleasant topics and stories made up. Hey, it's a good thing we see no signs of that, right? Wrong! It's everywhere today! Regularly these days we get calls from here in the US, Canada, South America, Europe, and as far as Australia, always with the same legitimate complaint: "I can't find a healthy Church!" or "I can't find someone who will preach the Bible." Sometimes they'll add, "Now I'm the weird one for asking my pastor to preach the other third of the Bible (prophecy) he's been leaving out." And with many supposedly-Christian Churches, they don't even give the other two thirds. All their people hear is, "Hey, we're going to help you become a better you," or "Let's talk about how to be financially successful," or "Let's build up your self esteem.” But my Bible says we need to esteem others more than ourselves. We are to deny ourselves, pick up our cross, and
follow Christ every day. Oops! Today’s congregations gather fluff preachers
around them, which is a major sign we're living in the last days! | image tagged in bible,prophecy,future,god,christian,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5iap4g.jpg)
![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! | image tagged in bible,prophecy,future,god,jesus,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5iaod8.jpg)
![WHY DO MORMONS OFTEN HAVE LARGE FAMILIES? The Mormon doctrine that teaches followers to have a lot of children is not from the biblical idea that children are a blessing given by God—or how a husband and wife become one. Instead, with all due respect, Mormons are taught that they must hurry and crank out the linoleum lizards (kids) because their Mormon god and his many goddess wives have a bunch of spirit babies in heaven that are waiting to inhabit a human host baby here on earth. And we can imagine Mormon leadership telling followers to get
moving so those spirit babies aren’t born into “wicked” households
like Pastor Billy’s, or other non-Mormons—like Christians. That's why they have so many children, and it blends into their other false teaching of multiple wives. Brigham Young said, “[Multiple] wives was revealed so that the noble spirits [spirit babies,] which are waiting for tabernacles [bodies] might be brought forth.” In other words, they don't have time to stick with just one bride because their god needs them to crank out the kids like an assembly line. Mormonism teaches that it is every Mormon's duty to have as many children as possible, as a way of donating bodies for their god's spirit babies. Without Mormonism, those
spirits will supposedly never make it back to heaven to be gods themselves.
That’s why Mormons typically have large families. | image tagged in mormon,cult,god,bible,jesus,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5f1td2.jpg)
