Christians, I keep hearing that the bible is true because "prophecies have been fulfilled". .....?

Question

Can you spell out those fulfilled prophecies for me please?

So no one can even give me ONE??

Do you guys even know any at all or do you just repeat what your priest tells you?

Answer 1

i think the prophecies in the bible are from the old testament being fulfilled in the new testament....

but I couldn't name you any....

Answer 2

Here are 10 ... There are many, many more ...

1) God's salvation would reach the ends of the earth. Bible passage: Isaiah 49:6

2) God promised another prophet like Moses Bible passage: Deuteronomy 18:15-18

3) Isaiah foreshadowed the virgin birth of Jesus. Bible passage: Isaiah 7:14

4) The Messiah would come from the tribe of Judah. Bible passage: Genesis 49:10

5) The Messiah would be born in Bethlehem. Bible passage: Micah 5:2

6) The Messiah would be preceded by a messenger. Bible passage: Isaiah 40:3

7) Daniel predicted when an anointed one would be rejected.
Bible passage: Daniel 9:24-26

8) The Messiah would enter Jerusalem while riding on a donkey. Bible passage: Zechariah 9:9

9) Jesus was betrayed by a friend. Bible passage: Psalm 41:9

10) Zechariah foreshadowed the betrayal of Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. Bible passage: Zechariah 11:12-13

There are so many others! The odds of them being fulfilled in one man are so insane that it is nothing short of miraculous!

Answer 3

The part where it states that the Jews and the Arabs will never be at peace with each other, and that the entire world would be held captive to this mutual distrust and hatred. Who could have made such a prediction from two insignificant little tribes from an insignificant part of the world? Even by themselves? Where are the Spartans today? Where are the Visogoths and Vikings now? Why did the mighty Anglos and Danes, Cossacks and Huns, Mayans and Aztec people groups all evaporate, yet not the Jews nor the Arabs? Despite the dispersion throughout the world? Why do they still hold to their social indentity, and not all the rest? We're waiting.......

Answer 4

I was just reading the other day about God's promises to Solomon. It was a covenant that had great benefits and dire consequences. I believe that everything God said would happen to Israel has taken place. I also believe all the prophecies about the Messiah are fulfilled in Jesus.



Hm-mm...was do not cast your pearls before swine a prophesy? I cannot remember. If it was I would say that one is fulfilled repeatedly

Answer 5

These 10 Bible prophecies said that Israel would become a country, that it would be destroyed, that its people would be scattered worldwide and persecuted, that they would have a worldwide impact, and that they would return to Israel. Each of these prophecies have been fulfilled or are being fulfilled.


Threre are 100 so far and because of the limits of space on here, I will just direct you to a web site that give you all 100.

Answer 6

In 1948, Israel was recognized as a sovereign state, and this has ramifications for the student of scripture. God promised Abram that his posterity would have Canaan as “an everlasting possession” (Genesis 17:8), and Ezekiel prophesied a physical and spiritual resuscitation of Israel (Ezekiel 37). Having Israel as a nation in its own land is important in light of end-time prophecy, because of Israel’s prominence in eschatology (Daniel 10:14; 11:41; Revelation 11:8).

Answer 7

well being rational, prophets from hundreds and hundreds of years ago said that Christ would be born, which he was, (eg. Isaiah), and then told of the death of Christ, which happened. Then there are prophesies about the great apostacy, which happened, about the true church of christ being split up into lots of other churchs, and then the restoration, which happened, in about 1830, so now we have the restored church of Jesus Christ on the earth again.
So now we have living prophets and apostles, so obviously we have the modern day revelation which is all about preparing for the second coming, which will be just around the corner, and other prephesies for the saints in the latter days. So you have your basic main fufilled prophesis, "Christ will be born" "Christ will die" "Christ will establish his church" "His church will be destroyed" "Apostacy and darkness will fill the earth" (black plague/great depression) "Restoration of the Church", and then the ones to follow "Christ will come again (second coming)" and so forth. Anyway by the way you asked your question you neither care no have real interest so I will leave it at that. Any other questions, email me. cheers.

Answer 8

You waited just 4 minutes before you you judged that we don't have a single fulfill prophecy? You do have patiences I'll say that for you...
Psalms 22 14-18
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
If you need help understanding it just ask... When you get this one handled in you mind there are many others... Jim
