Quoted By:
In addition to the need for a trinitarian, personal God, the Holy Bible has successfully predicted events of the future to such exact details that would have been impossible to predict without divine revelation
Isaiah 65
>And you shall leave your name for an execration to my elect: and the Lord God shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name.
Acts 11
>And they conversed there in the church a whole year; and they taught a great multitude, so that at Antioch the disciples were first named Christians.
Despite being written centuries before the incarnation of Christ, Isaiah successfully predicted that the followers of God would be called by a new name. The name of "Christians" fulfilled this. Even non-Christians will attest to how this is the origin of the name "Christian"
Luke 1
>And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord. And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
Hail Mary Prayer
>Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, Now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
How did Mary, who lived in the 1st century, successfully predict that many people throughout time and across continents would call her blessed?
Malachi 1
>For from the rising of the sun even to the going down, my name is great among the Gentiles, and in every place there is sacrifice, and there is offered to my name a clean oblation: for my name is great among the Gentiles, saith the Lord of hosts
From this verse, there is a prophecy that Gentiles will make sacrifices to God. In Catholicism, the Eucharist, which is taken at every Catholic Church in every country, is identified as a sacrifice that draws from the one made at Calvary. How could have Isaiah known this?
All of these examples demonstrate that the Bible can be trusted for accuracy
