Proof of the Bible Quotes

“the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand”? One is quoted saying those very words in Isaiah 46:9-10. Who is this claiming to foretell the future? Is it merely some ignorant, ancient human with no power to make good his boast, who wrote this blistering challenge to the skeptics, recorded in Isaiah 41:21-24?—“Now, the Eternal cries, bring your case forward, now, Jacob’s King cries, state your proofs.” Yes, state your PROOFS! “Let us hear what happened in the past, that we may ponder it, or show me what is yet to be, that we may watch how it turns out; yes, let us hear what is COMING, that we may be sure you are gods; come, do something or other that we may marvel at the sight!—why, you are things of naught, you can do nothing at all!” (Moffatt translation).”

“There is the taunt of the One quoted as being God, and quoted in the first person, taunting skeptics, saying, “Why, you’re nothing at all. Come on! Let’s hear your arguments that we may watch whether it turns out. Predict what is going to happen in the future, and let us watch and see whether you can foretell. Have you the power to bring it about? Are you a God? Do you rule the universe? Can you make and unmake nations? Can you pronounce a sentence or a decree on a nation, and bring it to PASS?” That is the taunt of the God of the Bible to the doubter. Prophecy is a PROOF of God If One, in the Bible, speaking and claiming to be God, can make prophecies and tell what is going to happen in the future to nations, to cities, to empires, then if it actually happens in every case,”
