prophecies. On May 19, 1780, the darkening of the sun was fulfilled. It was the most
unaccountable darkening of the whole visible heavens and atmosphere in New England. The
night time of May 19, 1780 fulfilled the other prophecy about the moon turning to blood. Milo
Bostick in Stones History Massachusetts says, The moon which was at its full, had the
appearance of blood.
In Matthew 24:29, Jesus also said that the stars shall fall from heaven. The great star
shower took place on the night of November 13, 1833. It was so bright that a newspaper could be
read on the street. One writer says, "For nearly four hours the sky was literally ablaze." Men
thought the end of the world had come. Look into this. It is most fascinating, and a sign of
Christ's coming. (Peter A. Millman, "The Falling of the Stars," The Telescope, 7 (May-June,
1940) 57)
To sum up, the Bible is believed to be Gods word. It contains stories that are believed to
happen in real life, religious principles and teachings that are used by the Christian churches
today, mysteries, and prophecies that were, are, and will be fulfilled. Some of the evidences to
prove the accuracy of the Bible prophecies are recorded in history and science. Some of the
evidences are the prophecy of Daniel about the dream of king Nebuchadnezzar which foretold
the rise and fall of kingdoms from Babylon to the ten divided kingdoms of Europe, the prophecy
of Jesus about the signs related to his second coming: the darkening of the sun, the moon
turning to blood, and the falling of the stars. These records are strong evidences that can
prove the accuracy of the Bible prophecies. Therefore, I can confidently say that I believe in the
words of the Bible and that it is really Gods word.
