Predictions of the Future

Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation.

For no such prophecy was ever brought forth by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

Even from your own number, men will rise up and distort the truth to draw away disciples after them.

“Behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of prophecy in this book.”

And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for instruction, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have hope.

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope.

Just as man is appointed to die once, and after that to face judgment,

Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin will be with child and give birth to a son, and will call Him Immanuel.
