Bible Study Why Is One-third of the Bible Devoted to Prophecy?

Everyone wants to know what the future holds. Most have no idea. So many are confused, not knowing where to turn for answers to the great questions about the future.

Suppose you could know the direction and conclusion of world events—world history—before the outcome. What if you could know the courses of nations in advance? Imagine knowing tomorrow’s biggest headlines before they come to pass, and how events will affect you, and all human beings, personally.

About one-third of the Bible is prophecy—history written in advance. Over four-fifths of this future history is yet to be fulfilled. Tragically, most Bible readers are unaware of awesome, impending world events, soon to involve all nations. Vast sections of Scripture remain outside their understanding—completely hidden to them.

Here is why God records prophecy in His Word—and the keys to unlocking it!

Who Is It For?

Many have opinions about Bible prophecy, but few know how to find real answers. Others think they already understand prophecies of the Bible, but are ignorant of vital life-changing knowledge.

Any study of prophecy begins with the definition of what it is. Most lack even this most basic knowledge. Bible prophecy is “the inspired, divine revelation or foretelling of historical events, written in advance of those events, pertaining to the unfolding of God’s Plan for mankind.” A shorter definition is “foretelling the future.”

Prophecy is factual history recorded in advance! God foretells major events before they happen. He wants His servants to know what the future holds—what lies ahead for the world. The Bible is about 750,000 words. This means 250,000 are devoted to prophecy. With over 80 percent unfulfilled, many major events must yet come to pass.

Let’s ask: What purpose would God have for devoting so much of His divine Word to a subject, and then leave mankind in the dark about it?

The Bible reveals God's plan for the redemption of the human race. Over many centuries, prophets told us about the coming Messiah. That's why prophecy makes up a large portion of the Bible.
