How do we know prophecy in the Bible is true?

Answered in 1 source

Bible prophecy is proven true by its accurate fulfillment and the divine inspiration behind its message.

The truth of Bible prophecy is established through its accurate fulfilment and the unique divine inspiration of the Scriptures. In Isaiah's case, he prophesied specific events, such as the fall of Babylon and the name of Cyrus, who would conquer it, centuries before they occurred. This level of precision in prophecy is unmatched by any other religious texts or historical records, affirming that the Bible is not merely a collection of writings but rather the inspired Word of God. This divine inspiration is critical in understanding that these prophecies originate from God Himself, who exists outside of time and knows the end from the beginning. Therefore, we can have absolute confidence in the prophecies found in Scripture as they reveal God's sovereign plan and purposes.
