Holy scriptures Quote by Grant R. Jeffrey
““No man or spirit, not even Satan, can precisely predict future events. No other religious writing outside the Bible dares to make thousands of detailed predictions centuries before their fulfillment. Only God, through His written, “God-breathed” Word, dares to do that. The phenomenon of hundreds of fulfilled prophecies conclusively proves that God has revealed Himself through the Holy Scriptures.””

![“[ When a religious couple wrote to Sagan about fulfilled prophecies, he wrote back in May 1996 :] If ‘fulfilled prophecy’ is your criterion, why do you not believe in materialistic science, which has an unparalleled record of fulfilled prophecy? Consider, for example, eclipses.” quote by Carl Sagan](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/875/carl-sagan-160_belief_when-a-religious-couple-wrote-to-sagan-a_25095.jpg)
