The Bible is accurate because prophecies about the end times in Daniel, Ezekiel, and Revelation describe technological advances that no one could have dreamed of thousands of years ago.

Daniel 12:4 says that in the end times, people will be world travelers and have access to vast amounts of knowledge. Today, international flights and the internet make both of those claims possible.

Revelation 11:9 predicts that in the future, people from every nation around the world could all watch the same event simultaneously. We know this is possible today with mass media, the news, and livestreams.

Revelation 13:16-18 predicts that, in the future, people will be able to purchase things with a mark on their hand or forehead. This is possible today with the invention of RFID chips, tap-to-pay, and facial recognition technology.

There are dozens of other future prophecies that describe technology that no one could have dreamed of thousands of years ago. The Bible does not just prophecy the existence of these technological advances; it even accurately portrays how these technologies would be used, thousands of years before they were even invented.

This shows that the author of the Bible had a vast understanding of the future. For the Christian, this solidifies that the Bible is definitely written by God, the only One who knows the future.

Because God demonstrated that He knows the future, we can trust Him with our personal future today!
