The prophecies in Daniel and Revelation in particular are definitely something people who are not christians should take into consideration. The prophecies that have already come to pass and what it speaks about future events are truths that anybody who reads them should not take lightly. The attitude that people display towards the coming of Christ fits perfectly into what Peter says in his epistle. Although, I'm not into conspiracy theories, (I'm sure people in here with their superior intellect will say i've already bought into one) which Christians have unfruitfully participated in. I stand on the innerrancy of Biblical truth that is presented within scripture. It's hard to look around at the world's condition and not see the direction in which it's heading. John records in revelations which most scholars date roughly around 95 AD (some date it earlier), 13:16,17 about a one world currency. Bankers realize that it's moving to a centralized currency soon, which all banks will work directly through in some form or fashion and have talked about it openly. The parellel's are many if one takes the time to look at them. In the midst of all the crazies out there. There is sound exegesis of scripture and solid and logical evidences that point or shadow the things reflected in scripture. |
You are deluding yourself. The Bible is a non-coherent scripture put together by several unconnected sources. The version of the history of the earth that is given is in clear contradiction with what we observe, and the predictions made in revelations are HIGHLY subjective and can be interepreted in several ways.
More important than these two points for myself, is the fact that you are AUTOMATICALLY proclaiming the bible as the absolute truth whilst other religious traditions are unknown to you - Nevermind the fact that there are scriptures out there at a much higher level than the bible.
In the Bhavishya Purana (literal meaning:history of the future), Mohammed, Islam, Jesus and Buddha is predicted. There are predictions of ''the candles will hang upside down from the ceilings'' clearly indicating electric lightbulbs, while there are mentions of ''in the iron age the men of the earth will dig into mother earth and she will scream to no avail''.
More important than these two predictions and something which is important for me is that the time scales which the book is based on are MUCH more realistic than you who claims the earth is a few thousand years old. Because you have zero explanation for most of what modern science is based on.
Anyways, I'm not into 'religious wars', but I have to tell you that saying something like, ''All biblical prophecies will come to pass, whether the world wants to recognize this reality is another thing.'' , puts you SLAM BANG in the middle of the 'crazy fanatics' category in the opinion of most learned people these days.
