πŸŒ‹ The Bible Prophesy; How Authentic the Bible is? πŸŒ‹

If faith can move mountains, more so people can be moved by faith.

WHERE WE ARE GOING.png

Zechariah 8: 20. Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities: 21. And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go also.

And this is where we went because of faith.

Before I share with you my personal experience in Brazil, let me first share with you some basic knowledge about Jesus. If you’re a Christian, you probably know these already but these Bible verses helped strengthen my faith from the beginning. These well-known prophecies already proved to be authentic and are relatively easier to understand so let us lay the foundation by discussing them first.

They would pierce His hands and feet

Psalm 22: 6. But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people. 7. All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head saying, 16. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. 18. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

Long before Jesus was born, these things about him had been written in great detail.

John 19: 36. For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken. 37. And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

For those who have doubts about the existence of Jesus, please read my previous post.

Some scholars say that there are probably more than 300 prophecies about Jesus Christ in the Old Testament. The odds that even a handful of these prophecies would happen in a single person is incredibly small. It just can’t happen by accident. -From His birth, ministry, death, resurrection and his role in the Church of God.

Jesus will be born in Bethlehem, Judaea

Micah 5: 2. But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.

His origin had been clearly written and wise men who were knowledgeable in this prophecy waited for His coming in great anticipation.

Matthew 2: 4. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born. 5. And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet, 6. And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.

He would be rejected and despised by many

Referred to in various ways, like β€œthe son of a carpenter,” Jesus was prophesied to be regarded in low esteem by many people in his time.

He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. (Isaiah 53:3).

We can clearly see its fulfillment in many verses including the following:

All the people in the synagogue were furious when they heard this. They got up, drove him out of the town, and took him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw him off the cliff. (Luke 4:28–29).

Prophecies indeed come true at the right time.

One of the most remarkable things I have learned from Bro. Eli is that the location/country where he started preaching the word of God decades ago was actually written! I have been a witness to this incredible reality as I have shared with you sometime ago. It proves to us, undeniably, that God blesses Bro.Eli and the Church of God.

Crossing Borders to Seek the Lord’s Favor

Since the historic International Thanksgiving held and hosted in Brazil last 2014, this year’s special thanksgiving will be the 4th undertaking of the yearly Brazil celebration. As early as December last year, some brethren across the world already started their travel preparation and plans, to the Lord’s favor even through crossing borders and frontiers.

It's such an incredible feeling, not only to witness, but to be part of the fulfillment of a Biblical prophecy:

Zechariah 8:21 and the inhabitants of one city will go to another and say, β€˜Let us go at once to entreat the Lord and seek the Lord Almighty. I myself am going.’

Many brethren now gather here in Brazil where Bro. Eli is and we're all ready to meet him. Now we are even more confident that what we are seeing is the fulfillment of this prophecy:

Zechariah 8:7 This is what the Lord Almighty says: β€œI will save my people from the countries of the east and the west.

The Philippines, where Bro. Eli started preaching many years ago, is in the far east while Brazil is in the west. -Directly on the other side of the planet. Here we can see the rapid growth of the organization. There are so many things I'd love to explain but no words can.

Malachi 1: 11. My name will be great among the nations, from where the sun rises to where it sets. In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me, because my name will be great among the nations," says the Lord Almighty. - NIV

Before we come together and sing songs of praises again, we were reminded by our preachers to follow some important Biblical doctrines in preparation for this international thanksgiving event. I can't wait to meet Bro. Eli and greet him "Happy Birthday" and "Happy Sabbath day anniversary".

Prophecies are an amazing thing. It told us when Jesus would arrive, be crucified and it gives us clues to the last days. It's up to us to keep a watchful eye on the understanding of last days prophecies.

very well said, He will come very soon, anytime soon....

God grant you great blessings in your projects, from now on I will be following you and supporting your post with my vows (automatically), you may not get much but they are full of good intentions and a large portion of faith. Greetings!

Thanks! Where are you from, if you dont mind telling?

From Venezuela, a country that is currently facing a great economic problem, but I have faith in God that everything will improve and if he doesn't, I'm gonna have to get out of here.!

Great. I want you to know that our Filipino preacher in the church is in Brazil. He has a program there in South America. From time to time I will sending you a video. You can visit our locale in Venezuela and you can ask anything about the bible on Irmao Eli Soriano via satelite. Please watch this video

Thank you, I'll wait for your videos, please have them in Spanish to watch with my wife. I am publishing a daily verse because I want to spread the word of God in steemit, I hardly receive votes for it but I still up them with the bots. I know that there are people who read because I receive notification of reesteem, that gives me peace of mind because I know that it is reaching out to others and I always ask God to put words that will edify and help.

This is debate of Irmao Eli Soriano contra Pastor Carlos. Hope you can watch this

I'm going to collect them and share them with my father-in-law. Thank you. God bless you.!

1 Cor. 15:3-4

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

God does what He says and says what He does.
Move on by His Spirit brother, the Lord is with you.
May His power be made manifest to you and through you.

Jesus will come back anytime soon from now...

I hope to meet Bro. Eli in person again. It's definitely on my bucket list. Congratulations! I'm happy for you bro.

He came, was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain, died but because the grave could not hold him captive, He rose, sited at the right hand side of God almighty and to prepare a place for us (so that where he is, we will be too) and is alive,today , yesterday and forevermore.... Amen

Indeed, He will come back again anytime soon.

Faith is the basis of everything
One of the most important types of faith is that we believe that God is capable of everything
God is the creator of everything
Faith purifies the soul of sins and makes the soul not do sins

Very well said @roselover

We also have this belief in our China. Your sharing is great! A newcomer from China @chinese

Do i believe in biblical prophecy? Yes. And everyone better. Because it is true. Biblical prophecy does come true. So many have already come true. And so many yet will come true.

I am glad you are in the movement that is fortunate to see that prophecy. Just know you are blessed to not only recognize that, but also to be witness to it.

I am lucky to witness all of this. Please check our blog site in www.controversyextraordinary.com
