Many prophecies have been fulfilled. A few examples:

  • The fact that Abraham is revered to this day, close to 4,000 years after his lifetime (Genesis 12:2).
  • God having fulfilled his promise (Genesis 35:12) to give Israel (Canaan) to Jacob's descendants.
  • The Israelite slavery in Egypt (Genesis 15:13) and their later Exodus (Genesis 15:14).
  • The fact that the Arabs are very numerous (Genesis 17:20).
  • The Edumeans having been subjugated by the Israelites (see Genesis 25:23 and 1 Kings 22:48).
  • The fact that Edom (Petra) is today an uninhabited desert (Jeremiah 49:17-18).
  • The existence of the Davidic dynasty (Genesis 49:8-10).
  • The destruction of the Temple (1 Kings 9:7).
  • The scattering of the Jews (Deuteronomy 4:27).
  • The destruction of Babylon (Isaiah 13:19).
  • The hatred against the Jews, and the canards that have been hurled at them (Deuteronomy 28:37).
  • The fact that the Jews continue to exist despite their exile (Leviticus 26:44)
  • The fact that billions of people have come under the influence of the Abrahamic belief, with the Greek, Norse and Roman gods now long-defunct. This is an (as yet) partial fulfillment of Isaiah 2:18.

Other prophecies are being fulfilled even now. A couple of examples are the mass return of Jews to Israel (Deuteronomy 30:3-5), and the fact that Israel is considered a significant force in the Middle East, with a number of victories (see Micah 5:7).

How do you tell the Bible is true?

As with anything else, you put it to the test. Jehovah God is the author (2 Timothy 3:16), and He used men to physically write what He told them via His holy spirit. (2 Peter 1:20-21) With that being the case, it would make sense that we could trust the wisdom of a being whose thoughts are higher than our own. (Isaiah 55:9) For a more specific example, consider this. Jehovah says that if people would listen to His commandments, then people would be able to have peace and live good lives. (Isaiah 48:17-18) Consider just a handful of those: Don't steal (Exodus 20:15), don't murder (Exodus 20:13), no adultery (Exodus 20:14), don't lie (Exodus 20:16), don't covet (Exodus 20:17), and treat people the way we want to be treated. (Matthew 7:12) If everyone around the world one day decided to abide by just these few commands, imagine how drastically different life would be...and for the better, just like Jehovah said it would be. Another example would be how the Bible foretold what kind of attitudes would be common in today's society. (2 Timothy 3:1-5) Despite such thinking and actions being detrimental to society, the average person does know and or practices those very attitudes today. No other book has such knowledge within it that can be trusted as much. (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)


Who is the true author of the Bible?

The scriptures tell who the author of the Bible is: Jehovah God. (2 Timothy 3:16) Though men physically penned the Bible, it was Jehovah by means of His holy spirit that told those men what to scribe. (2 Peter 1:20-21) (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)


Where does visions of future telling comes from?

In the Bible, the majority come from God. The Bible states specifically that if a man is a prophet, then every prophecy must come true 100 percent. If a man had any errors or inaccuracies, then he was not considered a prophet of God.

Did your astrology predictions come true?

There's no denying that astrology can be incredibly accurate. Many people find that their astrological predictions come true time and time again. Of course, not every prediction will come true for every person. But if you're curious about whether or not your astrological predictions have come true, there are a few things you can look for. One of the most common ways that people find out if their astrological predictions have come true is by looking at the events that have taken place in their life. If you've been experiencing a lot of the things that your astrologer predicted, it's likely that at least some of those predictions have come true. Another way to tell if your astrological predictions have come true is by looking at how you're feeling. If you're feeling particularly good or bad about something that's going on in your life, it could be because the planets are affecting you in the way that your astrologer predicted. Of course, there's no surefire way to know if all of your astrological predictions will come true. But if you're paying attention to the events and feelings in your life, you may be able to get a sense of whether. You can do it online through consultation with the best astrologer in India.
