Holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. - 2 Peter 1:21
Some people believe that the Bible is merely a haphazard collection of ancient writings.
But we have good reason to believe it is God's inspired Word. For example, the Bible
contains prophecies that have been fulfilled. Centuries before specific events took place,
the writers of Scripture predicted their occurrence, and in the course of time those
events came to pass.
No matter how farsighted we may be, we cannot foretell the future with any precision.
Indeed, our best guesses often turn out to be wrong. Here are some examples:
"Airplanes are interesting toys but of no military value." Who said that? A
renowned professor of military strategy. "Stocks have reached what looks like a
permanently high plateau." This pronouncement was made by a distinguished economist
just before the financial crash of 1929.
The Bible, however, is filled with dramatic examples of fulfilled prophecy. Isaiah
52:13-53:12 and Psalm 22:1-18 record details about the crucifixion of Christ hundreds of
years before this cruel form of execution was ever practiced.
When we pick up the Bible, we can rest assured that we are holding in our hands the one
authoritative divine revelation of truth - a claim verified by fulfilled prophecy.

God's Word is always true;
So when my faith grows dim,
I look into His Word
And trust my life to Him.

You can trust the Bible - God always keeps His word.
