World’s Greatest Mysteries – Biblical Prophets: Amazing Accuracy or Coincidental Occurrences
In a world in turmoil with devastating natural disasters—hurricanes, tsunamis, tornadoes, floods, blizzards—with brutal wars raging around the planet, with famine and epidemic disease flourishing without relief, how can ancient prophesies help us today? For thousands of years, history has recorded the words of prophets—men and women who seem to have uncanny insight into events in the future. Hebrew and Christian Scripture concentrate heavily on the teachings of prophets. The prophets in the Bible were not primarily foretellers of the future; they were valued in their time for addressing wrongdoing, injustice, and oppression in their society. When they turned their attention to the future, it was most often in the form of a warning: if you act like this, God's punishment will come in the form of that. For most of us, the notion of predicting the future seems like a parlor trick or simply voicing aloud the obvious. But spoken thousands of years before the obvious even exists, appears inconceivable. This television program objectively assesses ancient prophesies and presents how frequently their words have rung true with amazing accuracy. How is this possible? The program studies the possibility that biblical prophets had special abilities that allowed them to see events centuries before they happened. There are biblical prophesies written thousands of years ago that relate to our world today. We are told of impending global disaster—events that may already be unfolding. Should we listen to their warnings? Are the end times just ahead?
