MEAL & MOVIE September 17: End Times How Close Are We – When it was written, nearly 30 percent of the Bible’s content was prophetic. Today (2006), nearly all these prophecies have become recorded history. Only a handful of the Bible’s predictions remain to be fulfilled. They are predictions of the End Times-and many biblical scholars believe the signs that these prophecies that are all around us are about to come true.
