God's Predictions Will be Fulfilled
Ezekiel 12:27
Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he sees is for many days to come…


Those who receive intelligence from the almanac that the tide is to turn at a given moment, never think of doubting the prediction. Those who read in the kindling page of night that an eclipse will occur at a particular moment are as sure of it as if it had already taken place. "On 9th August 1869," says one, "at four o'clock in the afternoon, I stood at the door, smoked glass in hand, waiting. When a boy, I had read of this very eclipse, and of the moment when it should begin; it did begin at the precise second predicted forty years ago." What we read in God's own handwriting makes the student able to determine the path of the star, the point of an eclipse, to the fraction of a second; and is His word to be less trusted in the sphere of grace than in the sphere of nature's operations?

(R. Venting.).
