![DO PEOPLE ASK YOU FOR PROOF OF GOD? [3 of 3] Here's another fulfilled prophecy from God: In the book of Ezekiel, Amos predicted the city of Tyre would be attacked by many nations and its fortresses would fail. Also, the remains of the city (stones, timber, and soil) would be thrown into the sea and the leveled city would be used to spread fishing nets. By now you know it happened just that way. Several different nations attempted Tyre's destruction but the people would retreat to their island fortress out in the bay, probably taunting the attackers who could not reach them. Finally Alexander the Great came along, dismantling
the houses and other structures of Tyre, and throwing them into
the sea to make a land bridge out to those people on the island. Would you say the Tyre folks probably stopped taunting Alexander's army by the time they were half way there? So, Alexander the Great wiped the city of Tyre completely clean because the ruins all went into the water to make his land bridge. And do you know what the area of the original city is used for today? It's a flat, barren rock that is used as the perfect place to spread fishing nets. All that is exactly what God predicted, and it was well in advance. Over and over again, God prophesied the rise and fall of nations. And God did these sorts of specific predictions 2500 times in the Bible, with 2000 having already come true.
I mean, give me a break! How much more proof do we need? With
each one, God is telling us, "The Bible came from Me!" | image tagged in god,bible,future,prophecy,truth,heaven | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/59ldx6.jpg)
![DO PEOPLE ASK YOU FOR PROOF OF GOD? [1 of 3] Well, here’s some: how about God's track record with His predictions (prophecies)? I will give you a couple examples but just know that, so far, God has fulfilled over 2000 predictions He made, and we can read about of them in the Bible. In fact, God's predictions aren’t vague like those of psychics. Yet, even with very specific prophecies, God has been 100% correct and His remaining 500 predictions are all lining up right now during these last days before Jesus’s return. In Daniel 2, God predicted the rise of nations, telling us about these four future empires that then came to be and also in the Bible’s historical order: Babylon, Medo-Persian,
Greece, and then Rome. God also predicted the fall of nations. In the Bible's book of Nahum, God predicted Nineveh would be permanently destroyed by fire, easily captured, their army officers would desert, and those officers would even be drunk in their final hours. As specific as God was, of course it happened just that way. Archaeologists have not only discovered Nineveh, but also uncovered a layer of ash in its ruins, showing it was destroyed by fire. Also, ancient Babylonian records reveal how Nineveh was easily overtaken and that their officers fled the scene. Another Greek historian records how the king gave much wine to his soldiers that night, causing them to be drunk.
It was exactly as God said it would be and that prediction
was not your average psychic-type generalized con like,
"You're going to meet someone new.” Yeah, ya think? | image tagged in god,bible,prophecy,truth,death,heaven | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/59ldei.jpg)
![DO PEOPLE ASK YOU FOR PROOF OF GOD? [2 of 3] Here’s another specific prophecy from God that was perfectly fulfilled: The book of Isaiah talks about how Babylon would be overthrown at the hands of Medes, with the gates opened by a guy named Cyrus. And in the end the area would be reduced to swampland. Guess what happened. History shows it was exactly that: the Medes joined up with the Persians to conquer Babylon, despite the incredible defenses, which included Babylon's outer wall being so huge (tall and wide), they would hold chariot races on it. No one should have been able to get into Babylon. Still, God being the ONLY one who knows the future ends from the beginning, history today shows that a guy named Cyrus diverted the flow of the Euphrates River, which had run under the walls of Babylon, marched into the city along the river bed, and archaeological excavations reveal that part of Babylon today cannot be
dug up because it is under water, making it swamp-like. | image tagged in god,bible,prophecy,evidence,truth,eternity | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/59lcvc.jpg)
![SHOULD THE BIBLE BE OUR ONE SOURCE OF
AUTHORITY ON THIS PLANET? YES! And we Christians need to keep that truth! Don't just give the idea lip service, have it on your website, or only make it one more doctrinal statement. Praise God that we can stick to that truth and never be steered wrong. Take it, cherish it, and hold tight to it! Instead of an empty statement, this truth has to drive our behavior. Many people, including professing Christians, do not follow the dictates of the Bible for what they believe and how they behave. Instead, they more value their own personal opinions, as well as those from secular society, the educational system, the media, and their friends. In practice, those are what people really believe in. But all that is just a hodgepodge of everything from a fallen society, rather than taking direction from God's
Word in the Bible. Just keep your path clean and pure with God because
He never gets it wrong. Stick to the Bible as your only source of authority. The sixty-six books of the Bible constitute God's ONLY written revelation to mankind—and if it were possible, we should be emphasizing the importance of that word, ONLY, with exploding fireworks all around it, and huge dragon heads shooting fire at it, just to emphasis the word more. When Joseph Smith, other Mormons, New Agers, Hindus, or anyone, including professing Christians, try to tell you they have a “new revelation,” or new “Word from God” for you, what should be your response? You should firmly respond with something like, No, you do not! The Bible is sufficient for me. "The Bible...is the inspired, verbal [the very words,] plenary [all of the words,] infallible [trustworthy because it is without error in the original manuscripts,] Word of God. The Bible is the sole authority for faith and practice (Matthew 5:18; 22:31-32; Galatians 3:16; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; Hebrews 4:12; 2 Peter 1:20-21)." Unfortunately, that is not the practice for many professing Christians.
Besides the Bible, there has been no other written revelation given by God. Again,
there IS NO other written revelation from God besides the Bible—period! | image tagged in bible,god,jesus,truth,eternity,death | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/59lbv0.jpg)
![HAVE SUCCESSFUL PREDICTIONS OF THE FUTURE ONLY BEEN THROUGH GOD IN HIS BIBLE? [Part 3 of 3] Unlike God's prophetic ability, our study of "World Religions, Cults & the Occult," has shown that man cannot be successful in his prophecies. God made 2500 predictions, which He gave us through the Bible. And 2000 have already come to pass. Through Bible prophecy, God is saying, I wrote this book! You cannot say it came from man because logically I did what only the Supreme Being can do: only I am above and beyond time, seeing the beginning from the end. I made thousands of predictions before the events later happened, many of which I gave in great detail. God's prophecies give very specific
details, unlike psychics that only throw out vague predictions like, “I see you meeting someone new.” Ya think? Give me a break! It's crazy how ambiguous they are, just leaving people to fill in the blanks. But God’s predictions are full of detail and then He nails the outcome every single time. So, is it any wonder that those in the Christian Church who are not taught Bible prophecy start to doubt the Scriptures? Bible prophecy isn't just about what our future is going to be like. Prophecy proves God wrote the Bible. I really think the neglect of feeding the flock from the whole Bible, especially Bible prophecy, is part and parcel of why much of the Church today is doubting the Bible. Again, over 2000
prophecies from Scripture have already been fulfilled. | image tagged in bible,prophecy,prediction,future,god,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/578463.jpg)
![HAVE SUCCESSFUL PREDICTIONS OF THE FUTURE ONLY BEEN THROUGH GOD IN HIS BIBLE? [Part 2 of 3] Here's another important point: Why are half the people in the Church today professing to be Christians yet they don't know if they can trust the Bible? Why are they not confident in God's Word? It's because they are not being taught Bible prophecy, which makes up a third of the Bible. With all due respect to your pastor (and I am one), I want to ask them this: How can you sit there and say you are being a faithful shepherd if you deliberately and purposely keep a third of the Bible away from your congregation? How would those here at Sunrise Bible Church react if I said,
"Hey guys, as your pastor you know I love you and only want the best for you, but with that in mind and for your own good, I want to announce that we as a church will be tearing out a third of my Bible that you and I don't need to hear because it's doom and gloom. If I said that, what should they do? They should immediately kick me out! And because that’s true, why is it acceptable for pastors behind the pulpit to deliberately refuse to equip their people with a full third of the Scriptures? Pastors today won’t preach about how Bible prophecy demonstrates the authenticity of the Bible, which then proves it truly came from God because only He knows the future! Whether Old or New Testament, Bible prophecy is God loudly declaring, "Hey, I wrote this book! I did what man cannot do: over and over
I predicted future events that you have seen come to pass!” | image tagged in prophecy,bible,prediction,god,jesus,future | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5783g5.jpg)
