maybe three out of a hundred.
[Jack] And that's the amazing
thing about biblical prophesy,
is that biblical
prophesy is something
that you can actually
study scientifically.
It's actually
called eschatology,
where what the Bible has
claimed to be prophetic,
in fact, 27% of the
Bible is prophetic,
that the claims that it makes,
do they come to pass?
Is it true what the
Bible has to say?
(dramatic music)
[Narrator] So, is it?
What is the difference
between the predictions
that have come and gone
without fulfillment
versus what has been foretold
in the ancient
biblical scriptures?
Non-biblical predictions,
which is what most
are familiar with,
are often made by individuals
with heightened
public attention
due to their sensational
and simplified approach
to claims regarding
a specific approaching date
or signs in the cosmos.
In addition to the
previous examples,
there were also those that
during the turn of
the 19th century
and yet again just a few
years later in the year 1910
with the appearance
of Haley's Comet,
that was publicized
as a divine signal
for the end of the world.
But does any of this
have anything to do
with biblical prophesy?
Actually, no.
(wind howling)
Unlike the countless
vague predictions
made throughout
recent centuries,
biblical prophesy
contains an unprecedented
interwoven chronological events
complete timeline of humankind,
from the beginning to the end.
In fact, the complete
ancient scriptures
contain over 2,500
prophetic details,
which were recorded
over a millennium
by 40 separate authors.
In fact, the records
are so complete
it's the longest running
contiguous record
existence and as a result,
continues to be
studied by universities
and independent researchers
all over the world.
Unlike any other record,
the scriptures precede
and survived through
the rise and fall
of countless civilizations,
including the
ancient Babylonians,
Egyptian, and Roman empires.
As astounding as the
preservation of the records
throughout the
ages may have been,
it also continues to be
proven shockingly accurate
as archeologists
continue to uncover
newly discovered ancient ruins
throughout the Middle East
along with hundreds of
thousands of artifacts
that directly support
biblical history
and fulfilled prophetic events.
With all the
prophesies that came true
regarding the path,
we can go all the way back
through the Book of Genesis
and we can see
the development of the nation
of Israel over the centuries,
you have prophesies
regarding Egypt,
you have predictions
regarding these various things
that happened in
the Book of Daniel.
You have the prophesies
regarding the Greek Empire
and the Roman Empire
that came to be
and man, they were fulfilled
with 100% accuracy.
All of them were.
(dramatic music)
[Narrator] Just one example
of how accurately chilling
prophetic timeline are,
we can look to a warning
about how just one city
in particular,
the city of Tyre,
would be utterly destroyed
by Alexander the Great,
recorded 200 years
before it was fulfilled
in the greatest of detail.
The whole city
would be so destroyed
that it would be
down to the very dust
and that he would throw
all the rocks into the sea.
Now, if you know the history
of Tyre a little bit,
you know that King
Nebuchadnezzar came
and he began to siege the city.
But what happened
is in the meantime,
while King Nebuchadnezzar
was outside attacking the city,
the people of Tyre decided that
the only option they had
was to move their whole
city to a little island
when they just gave up the city
Nebuchadnezzar got through
and everything was gone.
Everything of value was gone.
Now, if you are a soldier
of the ancient world,
one of the reasons
you're fighting,
it's not for
the father land or something,
you want to get
those gold plates
and all the wonderful things
that are in that city,
that is their payoff.
So Nebuchadnezzar left that
feeling very frustrated
but what happened is years
later, Alexander the Great came
and he attacked
Tyre and of course,
they would not capitulate
and so he took the stones
that had been left in ruins
from the city on the mainland,
he took all those
and he threw them into the sea
that Alexander the Great
could then go and
conquer the city.
[Narrator] Not only did
every detail come to pass
as it was foretold,
the entirety of this event
as the prophesy was fulfilled
in July of 332 B.C.
You know, this is something
that's very specific,
talking about what's
going to happen
to a particular city
in a particular way.
It's not just this broad
generality of what might happen.
Where kind of anybody can make
(dramatic music)
[Narrator] The details
surrounding how the destruction
of Tyre came to pass
is not the exception
throughout the ancient
prophetic timeline
but rather the rule.
But even this is only
the tip of the iceberg.
The complete prophetic
timeline is so detailed
and complex in structure
that the passing of many events
rely on previous prophesies
coming to pass first
like a row of dominoes.
If just one event in the
timeline doesn't come to pass,
the entire chronological
and fulfillments would
completely fall apart.
(dramatic piano music)
In this aspect,
there is no other record
like this in existence
anywhere in the world.
(crowd murmuring)
But to understand what this
all has to do with us today
and the end of the world,
we first have to follow
of the most researched
and astounding sequences
of prophesied events that
history indisputably confirms
came to pass, which
throughout global culture
and political landscapes today.
A sequence that began
around 2,000 years ago
when Jesus of Nazareth
walked the Earth.
(light dramatic music)
Based on historical records,
Jesus' birth and life
is believed by
various researchers
to have fulfilled upwards
of over 300 prophetic events
and descriptions from
the Old Testament records,
some of which were recorded
hundreds to thousands of years
before Jesus first
walked in Jerusalem.
Even the details surrounding
how he would be executed
were foretold in
the prophetic timeline,
around 400 years
before crucifixions
were even invented.
It was during Jesus'
time in Jerusalem
that his disciples came to him
and asked about
the end of the age.
They knew that if he was
the prophesied messiah,
that he could tell them
exactly what
was going to happen
to the empires of the Earth
including Israel itself.
And according
to the ancient records,
Jesus answered them
