The Failure of Bible Prophecy: A Skeptic's Review of the Evidence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781426923838)

Fundamentalists say the fulfillment of prophecy proves the divine inspiration of the Bible. Supposedly, the prophets predicted Jesus Christ's birth, ministry, death, and resurrection centuries before he existed.

They also supposedly predicted the rise and fall of nations such as Tyre, Egypt, Edom, and Babylon. And they claim to have described the threat of Russia, the founding of Israel in 1948, and the political unification of Europe.

Upon closer examination, the claims do not hold up. The so-called messianic prophecies are taken out of context and have nothing to do with Jesus. This book proves:

• - Nebuchadnezzar never made a wasteland out of Egypt for forty years as Ezekiel predicted.
• - The world did not end immediately after the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD as Jesus had purportedly predicted in Matthew 24.
• - The biblical prophets predicted nothing about Christ or Antichrist in the distant future but plenty about apocalyptic doom and messianic glory in their own near future.
• - And much more

Find out why biblical explanations of the world today do not add up and why this matters in The Failure of Bible Prophecy.
