Hello, this is pastor gary from first baptist church of laplata. Well, Nostradamus’ predictions are out for 2022. If you don’t already know, Michael de Nostradame was a physician and astrologer who wrote a bunch of gibberish in 1555. Through much metaphorical interpretation, Nostradamus is said to have predicted WWII, the French Revolution, Adolf Hitler, the atomic bomb, JFK’s assassination, and the 9/11 terror attacks. Supposedly scheduled for this year are an invasion of France, intense global warming, famine, and the rise of artificial intelligence. Since interpreting Nostradamus is much easier after something happens than before, we will see. By contrast, biblical prophecies and their fulfillments are not only much older than Nostradamus’, but they are much clearer; not only that, but many of the Old Testament prophecies were quoted and shown to be fulfilled by New Testament writers leaving out the reader’s need for any interpretation. Jesus fulfilled 60 major prophecies and 270 ramifications of those prophecies concerning the Messiah. Statisticians have determined that for one person to fulfill just eight of the messianic prophecies would be one chance in 10 to the 17th power, or one chance in 100 quadrillion! Jesus is Who He said He is, the Bible can be trusted, and Nostradamus was probably just a pessimist with a vivid imagination.
