Answer 1

In the book of Daniel the prophet, he interprets a dream for the persian king. In this dream there is a vision of a ram with 2 horns. This ram is interpreted by daniel as the kingdom of the persians and Medians. Then appears a he goat with a single horn which charges the ram and destroys it. The He goat has a single horn which represents the first king and King of Greece according to the prophet. The single horn of the He goat is then broken afterwards and replaced by four other horns. The prophet Daniel interprets this as the splitting of the original kingdom into four parts.

This prophecy gives an exact account of the coming of Alexander the Great. He was the Greek King who destroyed the persian empire and in coins of his time he is always shown with horns of a ram. furthermore, he died at the young age of 33 due to malaria, and his huge kingdom was then split into four parts by four of his generals. this explains the meaning of the single horn breaking into four horns in the dream of the persian king. This can all be found in the book of Daniel chapter 8 lines 4-22.

Answer 3

Well...

the book of Revelation describes an event that everyone in the world will be able to see at the same exact time. 100 years ago much less 2000 years ago that would be impossible. With satellites and internet it is now totally possible.

It goes on to describe a new world order. That is already here minus a couple of more "attacks"

A world in which nobody would be able to buy sell or trade without an electronic marking chip implant to counteract terrorists activities is already ready to be implemented. A national ID law has already been passed and is about to be enforced in the US

I'm sorry but Israel is huge. Jesus said the last war would be over it.

The last generation would witness the rebirth of the fig tree(Israel) This happened in 1948.

The revival of the Roman Empire (European Union) in 1999

So how many do you need? There are a few hundred at least.

Let me ask you this: if someone sets out to fulfill a prophesy and does what the prophesy says, is it fulfilled?

Scripture says several things that Jesus did so that prophecy would be fulfilled.

Answer 6

There will be wars and rumors of wars.... WOW who needs a crystal ball for predictions like that? I used to sell commodities, the whole gig was to tell enough people different things and get a sale. when 5% of your customers hit it big, they were happy, and you looked like a hero to them and they would invest more and more, generating higher and higher commissions for yourself and your company. The 95% who got screwed were simply tossed by the side. If you make 1000 differing predictions and 5% of them turn out to be right, that's 50 predictions you can point to that "Prove" your ability to predict. The game is as old as prostitution, there's a SUCKER born every minute ( on both sides of the deal)

Answer 7

The Bible has predicted no more events than Nostrodamus has. To think it could predict specific events is ludicrous,I predict the sun will come out tomorrow! Big Deal.

Answer 8

Evidence we are living in what the bible calls "the last days" that is the last days of mans ruling the earth before God steps in. Jesus gave his followers many "signs" to identify this period of time just prior to God's Judgment Matt 24:7 "nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom ...therewill be food shortages in one place after another, Luke 21:11 There will be great earthquakes, in one place aftter another pestilences, Matt 24:11,12 Increasing in lawlessness and the love of the greater number will cool off, Luke 21:25,26 Men become faint out of fear and expectation of the things coming upon the inhabited earth, 2Tim 3:1-7 "But know this that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here, for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanders, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures rather thatn lovers of God, having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power, and from these turn away. There are many more historically and geographically accurate prophecies that can be proven if you want my help to research these please email.

Answer 9

In the book of Daniel it talks about the kings of the north and south, and it prophesized how the king of the north would fall. The king of the north @ one time was Germany and the south was US. If you remember history Germany fell. If you have time read the book Daniel and take your time and think about everything that has gone on in history... :)
