BACK TO THE FUTURE!!!
Many people are nostalgically looking back to 1985, and the popular movie that came out back then called Back To The Future 2. This picture is a shot of the time machine control panel where today's date was programed. It is quite interesting to look back and see what we thought life would look like in 2015 from 1985 minds. There are many aspects of 2015 portrayed in the movie that have not come to pass. There are many things that have come to pass here in 2015, that are not represented in the movie.
This is a period of only 30 years, and the producers got so many things wrong. Where are the flying cars?! My main point here is that man cannot predict the future. Man can make educated guesses, but when you look out a thousand years, there is no way man can accurately guess the outcome of any specific things.
Man can't, but God did. God predicted 2500 years in advance in the books of Isaiah and Ezekiel, that Israel would be re-established as a nation after being scattered all over the world. God also predicted in the book of Daniel that the empire that would be in power when the Messiah would come (Rome), would break into pieces and then in the last days reform into a weak union. The European Union fulfilled this prophecy. God predicted in the book of Zechariah that Israel would be the center of conflict in the world, and that every nation around her would want to destroy her. God predicted that the Gospel would be preached throughout the entire world, and that many would believe, but in the last days there would be a great falling away from the faith. We are seeing that great falling away happening right before our eyes.
There are literally hundreds and hundreds of detailed prophecies in the Bible that have been fulfilled. This proves to us that man did not write the Bible, but God wrote it through the prophets and Apostles who penned the books of the Old and New Testaments.
God created time, and is outside of it. He has decreed all that would come to pass, and all comes to pass for His purpose and His glory. He, by His grace is calling His people to come unto Him, and He has given us every reason to believe.
