...out not to be true? Posted a few minutes ago:
" there are literally hundreds of phrophecys in the bible that have been fufilled and that are comming true still today... And there has never been a phrophecy in the the bible that has turned out not to be true"
Even assuming that the bible is true:
1. According to Gen. 2:17, Adam will die the same day that he eats the fruit, but that did not come about, since, according to Gen. 5:5, Adam lived to age 930. [Note that the same Hebrew word for "die" is used as elsewhere in the Old Testament, standing for physical death.]
2. According to Gen. 4:12,14, Cain will be a fugitive and a vagabond, and constantly subject to assassination, but that did not come about, for, according to Gen. 4:16-17, Cain had a wife and family, and lived in the same area all his life, and built a city.
3. According to Josh. 17:17-18, Ephraim and Manasseh will drive out the Canaanites, but according to Jg 1:27-29, they did not drive out the Canaanites.
4. Jer. 34:5 prophesied that Zedekiah will die in peace, but according to 2 Ki. 25:7 and Jer. 52:10-11, that did not happen. Instead, he saw his sons killed, was carried off in chains, blinded, and eventually died in prison.
5. Amos 7:17 prophesied that Amaziah's sons will die by the sword, but according to 2 Chron. 26:1,21, Amaziah's son Uzziah died of leprosy.
6. According to Jonah 3:4, Nineveh will be overthrown in 40 days, but then God changed his mind about having Nineveh overthrown. (See Jonah 3:10.)
7. According to Matt. 12:40, Christ will be buried for three nights, but he died on a Friday and by Sunday the tomb was empty. Between Friday and Sunday, there are just two nights, not three.
8. According to Matt. 19:28 and Luke 22:30, all 12 disciples will sit on 12 thrones as judges. But actually, not all 12 disciples could reign, for Judas, who was one of them, was excluded. (See Matt. 26:24-25.)
9. In Matt. 26:34 and Luke 22:34, it is prophesied that before the cock crows, Peter will deny Jesus three times, but according to Mark 14:66-68, Peter denied Jesus only once before the cock crowed.
10. According to Luke 23:43, the thief will be with Christ in paradise on that very day. But Christ's body was buried that day and, according to Acts 2:27,31, his soul went to hell, not to paradise
