The Bible is also autheticated by the prophecy of the Bible, it’s God’s signature! 1/3 of the Bible is devoted to prophecy. So far, God is more than 500 for 500 on accurate, detailed prophecy fulfilled, many in our lifetime, unfortunately many Pastors skip the prophecy and Book of Revelation, robbing people of a blessing from God for hearing it, and the chance to see the proof that God has given us right in the Bible. Speaking of scientific authentication, most don’t realize that science itself originated with the Bible. For example there are medical discoveries that man didn’t discover until the 1800s, but they were right there in the Bible all along!
It means the first 500 prophecies God made in the Bible has already been fulfilled, literally, with many more to come. I have a book that has ALL prophecies made (scripture) and where the prophecies were fulfilled in scripture. It’s amazing when you see what God has done, it is faith building! The book is $15 and written by Dr David Reagan of Lamb & Lion Ministries. It’s invaluable if you want to study bible prophecy!
