Accurate Predictions

1. Introduction

We’ve all seen castles in various conditions. They can be virtually intact, ruins, or just a few foundation stones in the ground.

The same applies to cities and nations. Some seem to thrive and prosper while others decline or disappear altogether.
Who could have predicted the future of any particular city or nation?

As we shall see in this booklet, the Bible prophets have done just that and got it right every time.

Overview

In this section we shall look at predictions relating to several nations and cities.

We shall see that they are:

Clear and precise – there is no doubt what they mean
Known to have been written down before the event
100% accurate
Written by people who had no power to make them come true
Fulfilled by people who were not aware they were doing so

We shall also see that contrasting fortunes are predicted for different cities and nations, but that the Bible writers made the correct prediction every time.

Finally, we shall contrast this with how people today attempt to foretell the future. Again we’ll see how remarkable the Bible predictions are in contrast to man’s efforts at predicting the future.
