BULLSEYE!
ACCURATE
BIBLE KNOWLEDGE!
“THE
BIBLE IS SIMPLY A HISTORY BOOK”
DOES
IT ALSO TELL THE FUTURE?
QUESTION:
“Where can I get a book that will tell me what my future will be
and
secondly, what’s going to happen to the planet?”
The King James Bible is simply a 7,000 year history
book of pure facts. It will tell you where you will spend eternity and
also the
future of earth.
It is different from all other history books as it
tells the future history before it happens. All other history
books can
only give you the past history. The Bible declares past,
present
and future history. This is called prophecy. Prophecy is not
about predicting which can be hit or miss. Prophecy is not guess work.
Prophecy
foretells the future before it happens. Prophecy
is 100% accurate history that is
foretold before it happens.
That all the prophecy in the Bible has come true over
time is God simply telling us that what is foretold and prophesied for
the
future is as certain as the nose on your face.
One third of the Bible is prophecy that fore-tells of
events before
they happen.
It is a book crammed full of facts and figures,
dates, times, places, events, names, amounts, quantities, people … and
these are all factual and verifiable.
(A “testament” is a testifying or declaration.)
THE OLD TESTAMENT is about the nation of Israel with three basic
promises
Jesus
Christ comes out of heaven two times:
2. Jesus
Christ will come in the air at the rapture
of all
true Christians.
The theme of
the Bible is the return of Jesus Christ to sit on the Jewish throne
of David
in Jerusalem. (See Revelation chapter 19)
This is commonly called the ‘church’ age, the
end of which, Christ appears at the rapture, with all true
Christians
being physically caught up to meet the Lord in the air. The following
diagram
shows these three comings of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Between the rapture and Armageddon, God pours out his wrath on
the earth for seven
years. This is called the time of great tribulation ending
with the
battle of Armageddon on the plain of Megiddo in Northern Israel. This
battle
has God rescuing Israel from all the attacking nations of the world.
and places him in the garden of Eden around
4,000BC (BC means before Christ). This is approximately where Kuwait is
today
and is where the two rivers of the Tigris and Euphrates flow into the
Persian
Gulf. Adam and Eve, being real people and the parents of us all, sinned
and
fell from the perfect creatures God had made them to be. They were cast
(removed) out of the garden. The world then becomes dreadfully evil and
after
1760 years God destroys the world with Noah’s flood (2340BC)
but eight
people are saved in the ark.
into the different races with different languages
at the tower of Babel and they go off in all directions. God
then
divides the one huge land mass (2,000BC), that existed then, into the
various
continents we have today, with the various races on each continent.
and takes him out of Babylon into the land of Canaan.
Abraham’s descendants migrate down to Egypt (1661BC) and grow
to become
a large nation for 70 years. Then after a further 144 years of brutal
slavery,
God leads them out of Egypt under Moses (the Exodus), where
they wander
for forty years in the desert. They enter their promised land
of Canaan
(1406BC) and are ruled by a series of Judges for a few hundred
years
while fighting the surrounding nations.
to re-establish their national life. They build their temple
under Haggai and Zechariah (516BC) and Jerusalem’s wall
is
completed by Nehemiah (430BC). Around 420BC the prophet Malachi
delivers God’s last words to the nation.
SOON AFTER THE OLD TESTAMENT IS CLOSED.
This completes the first 4,000 years shown on the
chart.
Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Old Testament prophecy,
appears. He lives a sinless
life, dies for the sins of man and rises from the dead. He commanded
his
disciples to preach the story of his life and the redeeming power
of his
blood to all nations.
The gospel of salvation with eternal security is found
in the 14 books of the New Testament in the writings of the
apostle Paul.
where all true Christians will be taken off the earth
to meet the Lord in the air, and a period of 7 years, called
the Tribulation,
will follow, where God will pour out his wrath upon the earth. This
ends at the
battle of Armageddon in the North of Israel, where God rescues
Israel
from its enemies - all nations of the earth.
Between the rapture and Armageddon, God pours out his wrath on
the earth for seven
years. This is called the time of great tribulation ending
with the
battle of Armageddon on the plain of Megiddo in Northern Israel. This
battle
has God rescuing Israel from all the attacking nations of the world.
Christ then rules and reigns with all true believers
for 1,000 years, after which the universe is melted and
destroyed, and a new heaven and a new earth, along with
a new
universe, is created for ever more and preserved in a sinless state.
Unless you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ as paying
your sin debt to God the Father, you will burn forever in the literal
flames of
hell … never to die! You were born a sinner, lived as a sinner, died as
a
sinner, will be judged as a sinner and condemned a sinner. You have no
option …
you must get saved. Of course the choice is yours.
