Default Re: What religion are you?

Perhaps the bible in itself is proof enough for those who believe, but there are proofs outside the bible.

Didn't they recently discover that Jesus really lived? They found the tomb of his brother where it said 'XXXX, brother of Jesus'. In that time, you NEVER tell who your brother was. There was no point, unless he was a VERY special person.

Anyway, I don't need THAT proof. But a lot of things are happening that the bible predicted.

Like the prophecy of Daniel, where he actually foretold the shifts of power in like the 14th century. About how Brittain, France and Holland are big sea powers but are defeated by Spain or something.
I don't really know it by heart, but it's REALLY interesting what they wrote about our time.

Or the prophecy about Greece (a goat I think), Alexander the Great (the big horn), that died and was replaced by 3 generals (3 smaller horns in its place). That can't be coincidence IMO.

One of the most famous prophecies is the one about Babylon, the city that couldn't be taken. The bible foretold it 200 years earlier, and how!
That's like telling how the US will be defeated in 200 years, you just try it. And just one person gets the chance to put it into a holy book...

I believe.
