AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 6:18 so that by two unchangeable things [His promise and His oath] in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled [to Him] for refuge would have strong encouragement and indwelling strength to hold tightly to the hope set before us. |
Bible Question:
I would like to ask about Biblical prophecy. My question is this: where in the Bible does it say that future prophesied events are immutable and can not be changed? In other words, are there specific guarantees made that prophetic events such as the Second Coming must come to pass? |
Bible Answer: Hi Loran James, God cannot lie - Heb 6:16 For men swear by the greater: and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation. Heb 6:17 Wherein God, being minded to show more abundantly unto the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath; Heb 6:18 that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us: Heb 6:19 which we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and stedfast and entering into that which is within the veil; Heb 6:20 whither as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. No shadow of turning, God cannot change - Jam 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. Scripture is inspired - 2Ti 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: The prophesies are written, Second Coming, Judgement, Glory, they will come. Else God is a liar. terrib |
