Quotes About Prophecies

Science and The Word of God There is a constant effort made to explain the work of creation as the result of natural causes; and human reasoning is accepted even by professed Christians, in opposition to plain Scripture facts. There are many who oppose the investigation of the prophecies, especially those of Daniel
~ E.G. White
Six forest trees — that is a fact — grow out of one of the graves in Tewin churchyard. The grave's occupant — that is the legend — is an atheist, who declared that if God existed, six forest trees would grow out of her grave. These things in Hertfordshire; and farther afield lay the house of a hermit — Mrs. Wilcox had known him — who barred himself up, and wrote prophecies, and gave all he had to the poor.
~ E.M. Forster
He would calculate, by reference to prophecies in the Old and New Testament, the exact date of this event; the date would pass, without the expected Advent, and he would be more than disappointed,—he would be incensed. Then he would understand that he must have made some slight error in calculation, and the pleasures of anticipation would recommence.
~ Edmund Gosse
An eternal life is a life that one lives according to his or her decree to ultimately be a fine human being, agreeing with the concept of goodness, foreseeing the dangers ahead either by prophesies or by anticipation and to serve our Heavenly Father unselfishly.
~ Anthony Pan
God spoke to the Gentiles through nature and philosophers; to the Jews, through prophecies.
~ Fulton J. Sheen
Because every ruler celebrated his conquests by setting torch to the nearest library. Did not Julius Caesar incinerate the scrolls in the great library at Alexandria during his campaign against the republicans in Africa? Or General Stilicho, leader of the Vandals, order the burning of the Sybillene prophecies in Rome?
~ Ross King
The heart of postmillennialism is the faith that Christ will through His people accomplish and put into force the glorious prophecies of Isaiah and all the Scriptures, that He shall overcome all His enemies through His covenant people, and that He shall exercise His power and Kingdom in all the world and over all men and nations, so that, whether in faith or in defeat, every knee shall bow to Him and every tongue shall confess to God (Rom. 14:11; Phil. 2:11).

The heart of post-millennialism is the faith that Christ will through His people accomplish and put into force the glorious prophecies of Isaiah and all the Scriptures, that He shall overcome all His enemies through His covenant people, and that He shall exercise His power and Kingdom in all the world and over all men and nations, so that, whether in faith or in defeat, every knee shall bow to Him and every tongue shall confess God (Rom. 14:11; Phil. 2:11).
~ Rousas John Rushdoony
People always forget about prophecies unless they come true.
~ Margaret Atwood
Ah, but prophecies have a way of fulfilling themselves,' Khayman said. 'That's the magic of it. We all understood it in ancient times. The power of charms is the power of the will; you might say that we were all geniuses of psychology in those dark days, that we could be slain by the power of another's designs. And the dreams, Marius, the dreams are but a part of the great design.
~ Anne Rice
Most of the prophecies explicitly or implicitly incorporate some hope for the nations—for instance, by escaping judgment or finding mercy after judgment.
~ John E. Goldingay
Journalist and author of "The Mothman Prophecies" (made into a film starring Richard Gere) John A. Keel was adamant when he stated: ". . ..The UFOs do not seem to exist as tangible manufactured objects. They do not conform to the accepted natural laws of our environment. . .The UFO manifestations seem to be, by and large, merely minor variations of the age-old demonological phenomenon."(Conspiracy Journel)
~ John Keel
The so-called Negroes should not be this type of people, since they have the Bible, which is full of prophecies concerning the fate of those who rejected and opposed God's prophets. Allah's warning in the Holy Qur-an is very plain against the disobedient and opposers to His Last Apostle.
~ Elijah Muhammad
mouthing threats and accusations and vague prophecies of future disaster to the Lorrigans. He rode slowly out through the gate and took the trail made by the Devil's Tooth team when they hauled down the materials for the schoolhouse. The chunky roan climbed briskly, contentedly
~ B.M. Bower
The events and prophecies of our time are preparing us for the Savior's Second Coming.
~ Robert D. Hales
Reality's just the accumulation of ominous prophecies come to life. All you have to do is open a newspaper on any given day to weigh the good news versus the bad news, and you'll see what I mean.
~ Haruki Murakami
neither verse says the prophecies in Chapters 50 and 51 are about ancient Babylon. On the contrary, a close study of the 99 verses confirms they are for the future end days. Jeremiah 50:40, for example, states that the Daughter of Babylon will be destroyed "as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah." That type of dramatic destruction never happened to ancient Babylon, but it will happen to the Daughter of Babylon.
~ John Price
Major world events have occurred in the last 60 plus years that should give any person cause to seriously ponder Biblical end times prophecies. The most important, which we have already examined, is the re-birth of the nation of Israel in 1948 back in its original land. In spite of the good intentions of a lot of good people, to find the end times in their times, it was just not going to happen until the Fig Tree of Israel re-budded, which it miraculously did in the middle of the last century.

IDENTITY CLUE 4: A NATION OF WEALTH AND LUXURY Besides the foregoing prophecies which reveal the Daughter of Babylon will be a nation of great wealth, these verses further address the issue of great national wealth: "…because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass…" (Jeremiah 50:12(b)). "…a sword is upon her treasures…" (Jeremiah 50:37(b)) "You who…are rich in treasures…" (Jeremiah 51:13(a)).
~ John Price
the past, writers on this subject have conjectured that the Antichrist might possibly bring back the French guillotine in town squares across the globe to kill those who refuse to worship him. That was an educated guess, but as today's events unfold, and as we see the true identity of the Antichrist, as a dedicated Muslim, fulfilling not only Biblical, but also Muslim prophecies, the method of martyring God's people by beheading them makes perfect sense.
~ John Price
Israel's miraculous return to its land is dramatic proof that Biblical prophecies are being fulfilled in our time. God said He would bring Israel back into the land He gave them, after their long dispersion (which they called their diaspora) and He did it, just as He said. In Ezekiel 38:8, God prophecies that, after its dispersion, Israel would be "a land…whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate.
~ John Price
Jihadists are following their agenda, doing what they believe Allah has told them to do – kill unbelievers (kafir) and conquer the world, including every nation, for Allah. Much of what motivates Jihadists may be found in examining Muslim prophecies of the Last Day. It is likely, few of us knew that Muslim even had "prophecies", or that they also believed in a "Last Day," but they certainly do.
~ John Price
When I used to bring up the prophecies here in small group that warned us that there would be blood in the church in the end times, I could see that there was a lot of doubt.
~ John Price
The Declaration of Independence first organized the social compact on the foundation of the Redeemer's mission upon earth ... it laid the corner stone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity, and gave to the world the first irrevocable pledge of the fulfilment of the prophecies, announced directly from Heaven at the birth of the Saviour and predicted by the greatest of the Hebrew prophets six hundred years before.
~ John Quincy Adams
