The fact that you are reading this is actually proof that the Bible is authentic.
Wait. Do the internet and blockchain technology have anything to do with the Bible? If you believe in God, there are so many things that can prove that the Bible is authentic. In our previous discussions, we have discussed sensible pieces of advice from the Bible, like the importance of breastfeeding and staying happy for good health. We have also discussed the astonishing fact that God knows our composition and even our fingerprints!
Today, let’s discuss a few things with regard to modern technology and how a Biblical prophecy is coming true. There are deeper and more insightful lessons we can learn from Biblical prophecies but let’s leave those to qualified preachers. Let’s just talk about the basics and the obvious:
Allusion to Public Transport
The Bible strongly suggests that in the Last Days, transportation systems will be faster and more efficient in many places. The Book of Daniel was written at around 605 to 536 B.C:
Daniel 12:4
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall RUN TO AND FRO, and knowledge shall be increased.
Some people might misinterpret this and simply say that people would “run to and fro” over short distances, but the English words used by translators don’t convey the full meaning properly. The Hebrew word used in the verse for “run to and fro”, according to Strong’s Concordance H7751, is “shuwt,”. This specifically refers to transportation covering very long distances, whenever it is used in the Bible (Other examples include Chronicles 16:9; Job 1:7; 2 and Amos 8:12;). So, the Bible implies that mass transportation will be available. Thinking about how much people must learn in order to invent things like airplanes, this prophecy is further confirmed. “Knowledge shall be increased” is actually happening nowadays. People seem hungry for knowledge. Mind you, we’re only striking the surface. - But we are all living proofs that the Bible is authentic.
Mass Media and International Communication
For those who are not yet convinced that the Bible has prophesied mass media communication, please take a look at this:
Malachi 1:11
For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same My name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in EVERY PLACE incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for My name shall be great among the heathen, saith the LORD of hosts.
Matthew 24:14
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in ALL THE WORLD for a witness unto ALL NATIONS; and then shall the end come.
Malachi 1:11, is a really important pronouncement and is now possible due to mass media. I have seen it with my own eyes! Only satellite and internet media would be the possible means to realize such a prophecy – that God’s name would be known among the Gentiles (outside Israel). Christians around the planet can now come together and sing praises from any part of the globe through web conferencing. Billions more are starting to hear about Jesus Christ and his doctrines in the Bible.
The related prophecy in Matthew 24:14, declared by Jesus Himself, predicts the invention of technology which would make worldwide preaching possible if the church is going to do it. This prophecy is so far, partly fulfilled but you can see its progress and we are hopeful for its continuation until other prophecies happen. I hope what I shared today will help strengthen our faith in God and in his words in the Bible as I have heard them directly from my trusted leader, Bro. Eli.
It's amazing to see all of these things happen right in front of me and think that it's really planned and written thousands of years ago. I participate weekly in our international thanksgiving where hundreds or locales around the world are seen on the screen and if ever we a question about faith, we can even connect with Bro. Eli from anywhere there is internet or phone line. He happily answers all brethren’ questions straight from the Bible. This one-of-a-kind international thanksgiving is among the happiest moments in my life where I hear these words of wisdom and I have the opportunity to give thanks and sing praises to the Lord.
I will not right about whether it is right or wrong or on the authenticity of Bible but I know one thing, religion give hope to the poor. It helps you in the toughest times.
Some people were already hopeless but when they heard the words of God in the Bible, they started having faith and their outlook in life greatly improved. It's interesting to note that some rich people also become depressed and desperate because of problems other than money. Having faith certainly helps not only the poor but anyone who feels it.
Another interesting fact is that this is the only time in the history of the world where humans have the ability to actually destroy the world. Whether via pollution or nuclear war.
Revelation 11:18
There is no doubt we're living in the last days.
Nice and well explain biblical quotes about God prophesies that is now manifesting in our present day world. The truth still remain that the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ is near..
Because all biblical prophesies are poolinting to that fact about the end of the world, that is why we need to live a good christian life for us to make heaven .....
This is actually the bottomline! Every Christian should try to be a better person and representative of the teachings of Christ.
I believe blockchain tech is the answered prayer of the end time believers. It’s great to be living in such a time and to be in this great adventure with God.
Bless ya and more of the revealing of His glory through your life @hiroyamagishi
Thanks be to God.
it's like is a true words... it's sure that the bible is authentic. 👍
I don't care what the science or NASA tells. I believe that there's one God which is above us all and his words are true as our lives. To be honest, I don't know what religion tells the truth because all of them seems to be praising the name of God and Jesus but one thing is for sure for me. Jesus died in the cross and me as a sinner don't have the right be in Heaven when the end comes though I will keep my faith no matter what.
I remember that Jesus said something like: If other groups also talk about him and propagate his teaching, they are not enemies. I'm glad to say though that when I listen to our leader, Bro.Eli, I feel extreme satisfaction because the God answers all if my questions about faith by way of listening to the words of God. Thanks for reading my blog.
The problem with taking such passages as 'proof' is that they were written in the context of the time they were wrote. If we took things that we wrote today about what the future may hold then in 1700 years time, there is a very good statistical chance that some of our forecasts would have come true, but not cos we had actual knowledge of the future but because like the passages, we had made an educated guess.
I do love your writing, even though I may disagree with the content! All your posts are excellent and so easy to read. Thank you :-)
i don't want to tell in for or against that bible is authentic or not... but this is truth that our technology is growing very fast.
I do not think that the prophecy at Dan. 12:4 is in anyway alluding to improvement in the transportation system during the time of the end. Daniel had just finished writing a prophecy that even himself did not understand. True understanding of what he penned down was to be available during our time. By saying "many shall run to and fro" is meant that God's people will through the help of the holy spirit search the scriptures with a view to understanding spiritual truth which was not available to Daniel and other.
Notice also that through the effort of many who run to and fro, as it were, the pages of the Bible, "knowledge will increase". Yes, today of God's will and purpose for man and the earth have actually increased.
That's the point I was afraid to disclose. I only talked about the superficial explanations to avoid overexplaining Bible verses which is risky because I'm not a preacher. Thanks be to God because we experience this brother. I appreciate your comment.
Sorry, but this is kinda ridiculous. Daniel would slap you in the face and say "What the hell are you talking about?". This is like saying that Democritus knew about atoms.
Daniel would be astonished! It wasn't for him to see the fulfillment of the prophecy. It was for him to write it so we may believe when we see it happening.
Everywhere you go people state it is the end times but yet they have been saying that since y2k! We haven't mastered the transfer of mind or virtual reality. We have just begun to dive into quantum computers! The end times are not near. I still think everyone should be right with god and read the bible. I read the article all the way to the end and I followed upvoted and restemed for you. Thanks
A human microchip implant is typically an identifying integrated circuit device or RFID transponder encased in silicate glass and implanted in the body of a human being. This type of subdermal implant usually contains a unique ID number that can be linked to information contained in an external database, such as personal identification, law enforcement, medical history, medications, allergies, and contact information.
And the second beast required all people small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead Revelation 13:17
Mark is translated from the Greek word, "charagma" meaning scratch or etching. Charagma is from the root word, "charaxa" which can be translated as "stake."
Our modern day human microchips are implanted under the skin - like driving a stake into the ground.
The technology using microchips for business transactions may very well be the prophesied "mark of the beast."
