Hey does anyone know of any prophecies fulfilled after the bible was written? I know of a few for example: Israel becoming a nation in a single day (Isaiah 66: 7-8) & God also revealing it would happen in May 1948. There was math involved converting from God's calendar to our modern day calendar for month/year (Ezekiel 4: 3-6/Leviticus 26: 18, 26:21, 26: 24/Jeremiah 25: 11) :D.
In a way i'd like to witness to some people online. I feel that if they can see prophecies revealed after the bible was written, they'll begin to see that there's MUCH more to the bible than just being historic:bouncy:.
friend the bible speaks of babylon returning.babylon is modern day iraq.They have returned the the national scene and have become a power in the world.saddam did rebuild the city of babylon.He put statues of himself all over the city by the nebbaknezer statues.So, the city has been rebuilt, fact not fantasy.Saddam tried to restore the old empire but failed. The anti-christ and the false prophet will come from the area of babylon.Dennis
WHAT CITY WILL BE THE HEADQUARTERS OF 666 OR NERO CAESAR??
Most Bible scholars believe that the book of First Peter was written shortly after the beginning of Nero�s Roman persecution of Christians in AD 64 because of I Peter 4:12,13 & 5:8,9. We know that Peter and his wife were living in Rome at this time. Peter was inspired to write in I Peter 5:13: �She {Peter�s wife} who is in *BABYLON* {Nickname for *ROME*!} sends you her greetings, and so does my son Mark.� Apparently some Christians including Peter were inspired to call ROME �BABYLON� after Nero�s terrible persecution of Christians starting in AD 64. This is very interesting since the evil city of the End-Times is called �BABYLON� 6 times in Revelation 14:8; 16:19; 17:5; 18:2,10,21.
All encyclopedias agree that Babylon was completely evacuated in 275 BC and completely destroyed by 141 BC. The Wikipedia encyclopedia states, "By 141 BC, when the Parthian Empire took over the region, Babylon was in complete desolation and obscurity." The only question that remains is: Was Babylon rebuilt so that there could be people living in Babylon around AD 65 when Peter wrote 1 Peter 5:13??? Which leads us to the promises of God in Jeremiah 50:1-3,13: This is the word the Lord spoke through Jeremiah concerning Babylon.."Babylon will be captured... A nation from the north will attack her and lay waste her land. No one will live in it; both men and animals will flee away!" Also read Jeremiah 52:52:61-64: And God ALWAYS keeps His promises.
If you check out the latest Iraqi Tour Guides you will notice the following statement: "Today, Babylon lies COMPLETELY in ruins. A large and splendidly carved stone lion is all that remains of its former glories." There are no statues of Nebuchudnezzar in the ruins of Babylon! There are no statements in God's Word that 666 or his False Prophet will come from Babylon, Iraq.
I was a missionary in Jerusalem and Jerusalem was never known as they city on 7 hills. It has always been known as the city on 6 mountains {Not Hills} as per Wikipedia {Jerusalem Mountains} which are {1} Mount Herzl {2} Mount ofOlives{3}MountZion{4}MountScopus{5}TempleMount{6}HarMenuchot.
�Babylon� {Nicknamed Rome by Peter} is a �GREAT SEAPORT� in Rev 18:17-19; JUST LIKE ROME and UNLIKE Babylon whose ruins are NOW 4 miles from the very shallow Euphrates River; and UNLIKE Jerusalem which is 2000 to 3000 feet above sea level and 35 miles from the Mediterranean Sea. Babylon is also completely FLAT whereas the End-Time "Babylon" will be a city built on 7 Hills JUST LIKE ROME!!� Rev 17:18: �The woman you saw {Rev 17:3--Who sits with the Beast with 7 heads} is the great *CITY* {Rome--nicknamed Babylon in I Peter 5:13--See Rev 17:5a} that will rule over the kings of the earth.�
The headquarters of 666:devil: will be destroyed about 2 weeks before the Last Day. Rev 18:19: �Woe! Woe, O great city, where all who had ships on the sea became rich through her wealth! In one hour she has been brought to ruin! Rejoice, saints and apostles and prophets! God has judged her for the way she treated you.� See Rev 17:5,6; & Rev 18:24.
Luke 21:24: Jesus says, �Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.�{Or AD 70 to June 7th, AD 1967?}
In 1948 Jordanian Gentiles destroyed 34 of the 35 Jewish synagogues in Jerusalem and kicked almost all the Jews out of Jerusalem. On June 7th, 1967 the Jews took over complete control of Jerusalem for the first time in 1897 years "And the times of the Gentiles was fulfilled":applause:
Quotes from Obama on May 20th, 2011: �Israel must learn do defend itself **BY ITSELF**!!� �Israel must return to **PRE-1967 BORDERS**!!� Obama would like the Jerusalem borders to go back to their 1948 borders!!Nations from all over the world have heartily agreed with King Obama's 2 statements including the European Union, Russia and the United nations.
�WHAT WILL BE THE SIGN IF YOUR COMING AND THE END OF THE AGE??�
Matthew 24:3:: The disciples asked Jesus, "What will be the sign of your coming and the END of the age?
Matthew 24:7b,8 tells about events to occur JUST BEFORE the Great Tribulation mentioned in Matt 24:9-13.
In Matthew 24:7b,8 Jesus says, �There will be FAMINES and EARTHQUAKES {Like Japan} in various places. These are the BEGINNING of birth pains.� And in Luke 21:9 Jesus prophesied "When you hear of wars and REVOLUTIONS {Such as Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Algeria, Syria, Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan, Nigeria, Afghanistan, Iraq etc} do not be frightened. These things must happen first." With the WAR in Libya causing oil prices to skyrocket the cost of transporting greatly inflated food prices caused by the greatest wheat and corn FAMINES in history will skyrocket even higher. Food riot REVOLUTIONS are rapidly spreading in the Mid East; throughout Europe and the rest of the world as the cost of a loaf of bread already costs a full days wages for over 2 billion people {as per Rev 6:6} in over 60 countries. **AND THEN**......
� Matthew 24:3,9-13:� The disciples asked Jesus, �What will be the sign of your Coming and the end of the age?? Jesus answered�.. {During the Great Tribulation} �Then *YOU* will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and *YOU will be hated by all nations because of Me.� At that time many will turn away from the Faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of *MOST* will grow cold,{THE GREAT APOSTASY} but he {The Called, Chosen & Faithful-Rev 17:14b} who stands firm to the End will be saved.�:rolleyes:
