oh please enlighten us on the prophecy fulfiled
Glad to. First, the formation of the country of Israel was prophesised. Nehemiah 1:8-9 (God talking to Nehemiah) "If you are unfaithful (talking about the Jews), I will scatter you among the nations, but if you return to Me and obey My commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for My Name." Sure enough the Jews came from across the nations of the earth and formed Israel in the 1940's.
It also says throughout the Bible that the earth would experience great birth pains near the end times (the time when Jesus will come again). Have you noticed that in the past 100 years or so earthquakes are happening for frequently then ever before in history? Did you know that there are more wars going on now then ever before in history too? Matthew 24:6a "You will hear of wars and rumors of wars" Matthew 24:7-8 "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains."
The Bible also talks about many false teachers and teachings in the end times. Matthew 24:10-11 "At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate eachother, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people."
II Peter 2:1-3 "But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth to disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping."
II Peter 2:10b-12 "Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings; yet even the angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish."
II Peter 2:17-18 "These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them. For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of sinful human nature, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error."
YOU are fullfilling Biblical prophecy, Matthew 10:22a "All men will hate you because of Me..." John 15:18 "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to this world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you."
Mark 4:11-12 "He (Jesus) told them, 'The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you (believers in Christ). But to those on the outside everything is said in parables so that, 'they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!''"
You see the word of God right now, but you do not perceive it. You hear the word of God spoken here, but you do not understand it.
Mark 4:14-15 "The farmer (God) sows the word (Bible). Some people are like the seed along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they (you) hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them."
Matthew 10:32-33 "Whoever acknowledges Me before men, I will also acknowledge him before My Father in heaven. But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before My Father in heaven."
John 8:47 "He who belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God."
