how people can predicted the future using the Bible?

Question

I am reading a book which content the israel history,URRS, an the antiCristh,but it is refered to the Bible which histories are true and you can prub it by reading some capituls of the Bible

Answer 1

There is a book called The Bible Code and it claims there is a code to reading the bible that predicts future events. It has to do with using the original Hebrew text and counting numerical patterns of where certain letters are used. The History Channel has done a special regarding the book. Some people believe that the code works and it has predicted events that have happened such as the Iraq war or WWII. They use a computer algorithm that looks for patterns in the letters. So say in a paragraph there might be a pattern that will give a year and words. For example 1939 World War.

Some people disagree with the idea of the code and claim that it doesn't really predict anything. I would suggest reading the book and investigating yourself.

Also the book of Revelation contains prophesies regarding the end of days. Also in the Old Testament there are more prophesies. A Bible Commentary book might help you in reading through the bible such as the John MacArthur Study Bible because it provides notes about the text.

Hope that helps.

I'd recommend checking your grammar and spelling before posting anything here, but to answer your question...

The Bible has been used to predict the future by countless soothsayers, self-proclaimed prophets and general swindlers for, oh, the past 1600 years or so. Because it's a translation of a translation, it's text is very open to interpretation, and you can whatever prophecies you want into it. None of the attempts to use it to predict the future have been very accurate, and you can always say after a major event that it was foretold in such-and-such a chapter and verse. In the event that someone actually guessed right, they use that as validation of the prescient power of the Bible rather than simple luck or a broad enough prediction that it will probably happen eventually. You can say that it fortells the rise of a great nation-state that will wage a war against all the world, and you'd probably be right -- you don't give a time scale, and given human nature, there probably will be some country whose leadership completely loses it and declares war on the rest of humanity. You can say a child will be born who will become a leader of men and speak to the masses on the coming Apocalypse, and I suppose that could come true too -- great leaders are born from time to time, and if one happens to be born before some cataclysm or world war, you can point to him and say, "Aha! That's who the prophecy was talking about!"

99.999% of prophecy is bunk; they don't actually predict anything that wouldn't happen at some point by chance anyway. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then...

Answer 3

If I could understand this question, I might have some insight, but I have no idea what you're looking for. People often try to use the Bible to predict the future, as in the nutcases who today think that Revelation recounts the current war in Iraq. They discount the fact that war is a continuous cycle and one war resembles the one before it. Of course there are similarities between the present and the past. It doesn't mean that we can predict what will happen in the future.

Answer 4

They can't. How many of them can predict their own future?

You should look into perfecting your english, then pick on some serious matter, that's how you will build a nice future for yourself
