“Present your case” says the LORD … “Let them bring forth and show us what will happen … that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare to us things to come. Show the things that are to come here after, that we may know that you are gods …” Isaiah 41:21-23 Is prophecy an attribute of the one true God? “Remember the former things of old, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure,' … Indeed I have spoken it; I will also bring it to pass. I have purposed it; I will also do it.” Isaiah 46:9-11 Why does God fulfill prophecy? “I have declared the former things from the beginning; they went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to hear it. Suddenly I did them, and they came to pass. Because I knew that you were obstinate, and your neck was an iron sinew, and your brow bronze, even from the beginning I have declared it to you; before it came to pass I proclaimed it to you, lest you should say, 'My idol has done them, and my carved image and my molded image have commanded them.'” Isaiah 48:3-5 |
