Good day everyone, yesterday evening was a great moment for me, it was the first time I had the opportunity to meet brother Eli and Bro Josel teaching on the authenticity of the Bible 2 which focused on prophecies.
I learnt about William Miller who prophesied about the second coming of JESUS CHRIST in 1843.When it failed, he set March 21,1844,and October 22,1844 respectively which also failed. This failure brought about what is called GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT
This goes on to systematically present prove that William Miller was a false as indicated in the book of Deuteronomy 18:22
22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
This Bible verse shows that definitely there would be prophecies that are false coming from false prophets so the Bible forewarned us.
Daniel 12:4
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
The advance in technology lately is the fulfillment of the book of Daniel. Because this prophecy is in the book of God. This is the proof that every prophecy by God would be fulfilled.
Matthew 24:3
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
Jesus Christ Himself does not know the exact time for His coming but only brought out the events which may lead to His return for the second time.
Matthew 24:24
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
There are other people who claim to be Jesus christ to deceive people including believers so we should be careful.
It was a wonderful experience, I learnt a lot.
Thanks for passing by and leave a comment.
