Prophecies Are Getting Fulfilled yet so Many People Still Refuse to Believe the Bible!

"The Bible is only written by man.  It's only a book of fables.  You are too old for fairy tales.  Grow up and stop believing in God." is one of the greatest responses that any Christian can hear from scoffers and skeptics of the Bible.  It's amazing to see how people can question the Bible but they never question any respected figure of their own belief system like Roman Catholics put the Pope and the Council of Trent above the Bible, Mormons put their mission president above the Bible, the Iglesia ni Cristo puts the Executive Minister above the Bible or how atheists tend not to question popular atheist writers and their writings.  The same is likewise happening when it comes to the fulfillment of prophecies from the Bible.

2 Peter 3:3-7 says, "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming?  For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.  For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:  But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men."  The big irony is that in that verse, we see how many people say the Bible is just a book of fables but they are fulfilling that prophecy of them mocking and making light of the Scriptures.  Many are willfully ignorant like if the writer is a Christian or if they think the writer is a Christian, they will automatically dismiss the writing.

Reading history and how its events agree some Old Testament prophecies just makes my faith in the Word of God stronger than when it started.  Looking at the news shows that the Bible is not a book of fables.  The more I look at history and current events, the more the Bible makes sense.  Even after the current events are telling people to either repent of their sins and turn to Christ or they will die in their sins, they are still hardheaded as the Pharaoh of the Exodus.  The Pharaoh of the Exodus already saw the plagues happen before his very eyes but he still refused to repent.  In the Old Testament you can read the warnings God has asked his prophets to write down but many refused to believe them.  In no time, ancient history has proven the Bible's prophecies to be slowly coming yet so many people still choose to fight against it.

When anti-Christian forces attack the true Christians for their faith in Jesus Christ, they are fulfilling Jesus' own words that warned about persecution.  Jesus already warned His disciples of incoming persecution.  Many who are murdered for being Christians will be killed by those who delude themselves that they do God a favor (John 16:2).  In John 15:18-19, Jesus already warned ahead of time that Christians will be hated because they are not of the world.  Christians will always be enemies of the world because they are friends of God (James 4:4).  The more I hear about Christians getting persecuted, the more I am not surprised because the Bible already said it.  The more I read about the Dark Ages and how the Vatican's authorities were responsible for putting to death people who upheld the Bible above them, the more I am not surprised.  Persecution of Christians tells me that the Bible is never wrong.

As of late, I am really convinced that we might be approaching the end.  When I look at how godless this world has become, how the Vatican is bringing in all the world's religions together in ecumenical dialogue, when I read of how people want a cashless society, when I see people believe in another Jesus, I am not surprised and the more I am convinced that the Bible is not a book of fables.  When I tell somebody, "See I told you Bible prophecy is happening right before your eyes." they would just say, "That's just a coincidence!  Coincidences happen and I still don't believe the Bible."  Even if they say that, they have no excuse because they very well know God exists but they still refuse to submit to His righteousness because they are self-righteous.  What should be noted is that many people who think nothing is wrong with them are also reveling in some kind of sinful lifestyle one way or another.
