Topical Encyclopedia

The term "prophesied" refers to the act of delivering a message or revelation from God, often concerning future events or divine will. In the biblical context, prophecy is a significant means by which God communicates with His people, offering guidance, warning, and hope. Prophets, the individuals who prophesy, are chosen by God to convey His messages, and their words are recorded throughout the Scriptures.

Old Testament Prophecy

In the Old Testament, prophecy is a central theme, with numerous books dedicated to the messages of the prophets. Prophets such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel are among the major figures who prophesied to the people of Israel and Judah. Their messages often included calls to repentance, warnings of impending judgment, and promises of future restoration.

For example, Isaiah prophesied about the coming of the Messiah, a central theme in Christian theology.Isaiah 9:6 states, "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

Jeremiah, known as the "weeping prophet," prophesied the destruction of Jerusalem and the Babylonian exile, as seen inJeremiah 25:11 : "And this whole land will become a desolate wasteland, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years."

New Testament Fulfillment

The New Testament presents the fulfillment of many Old Testament prophecies, particularly concerning the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Gospel writers frequently reference Old Testament prophecies to demonstrate that Jesus is the promised Messiah.

Matthew 1:22-23 highlights the fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy: "All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 'Behold, the virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call Him Immanuel' (which means, 'God with us')."

The Book of Acts records the early church's understanding of prophecy, as seen in Peter's sermon on the day of Pentecost.Acts 2:16-17 quotes the prophet Joel: "No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out My Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.'"

Role of Prophecy in the Church

The New Testament also addresses the role of prophecy within the church. The Apostle Paul discusses spiritual gifts, including prophecy, in1 Corinthians 12-14. He emphasizes the importance of prophecy for edification, encouragement, and comfort. In1 Corinthians 14:1 , Paul writes, "Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy."

Prophecy is seen as a means by which God continues to speak to His people, providing guidance and insight into His will. However, Paul also advises discernment and order in the exercise of prophetic gifts, as seen in1 Thessalonians 5:20-21 : "Do not treat prophecies with contempt, but test all things. Hold fast to what is good."

Eschatological Prophecy

Eschatological prophecy, concerning the end times, is a significant aspect of biblical prophecy. The Book of Revelation, attributed to the Apostle John, contains vivid prophetic imagery and messages about the final judgment, the return of Christ, and the establishment of God's eternal kingdom.

Revelation 1:3 underscores the importance of prophecy: "Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear and obey what is written in it, because the time is near."

Throughout the Bible, prophecy serves as a testament to God's sovereignty, faithfulness, and ultimate plan for humanity. The fulfillment of prophecies in the life of Jesus Christ and the ongoing role of prophecy in the church affirm the continuity of God's redemptive work across the ages.
