The word "prophecy" means to speak forth. Bible prophecy includes three basic kinds of
speaking forth:
1. A message of inspiration from God.
2. Prediction of future events in God's eternal plan.
3. An interpretation for man of the acts of God.
God commissioned each prophet of the Bible to fulfill a particular role in His plan.
As interpreters they explained God's acts to men.
As spokesmen they voiced God's truth. They spoke messages of hope and
inspiration.
As prophets they predicted future events in God's plan through revelation given by
the Holy Spirit. The predictions of Bible prophecy are beyond the power of
human ability. They include a sufficient number of details to eliminate
speculation or guessing.
There are two basic ways in which God spoke through the prophets.
