Fulfilled Bible Prophecies

Give an example of a fulfilled prediction in the Bible.

In the book of Daniel, chapter 2, God outlined in a dream to the Babylonian king that from his time until the end of time, the world would witness only four world empires. History has proved what God foretold. (Note: God, in the Bible, numbers and foretells only those empires which in a specific way impact God's people.) The four world empires were: Babylon (605 BC-538 BC), Medo-Persia (538 BC-331 BC), Greece (331 BC-168 BC), and Rome (168 BC-476 AD). He further revealed that Rome would be split into ten territories and that in the time of these territories the end will come. History has proven the accuracy of God's word. For by 476 AD, Rome was divided into ten nations from which present day Europe has emerged.
Additionally, God revealed the unique features of each empire, such as the manner in which they would rise to power and fall, and the main characteristic of each government. See Daniel 7 and 8. Enough details were given that a candid student of history and the Bible cannot but concede there is a God in heaven who rules over our world.

What is the purpose of the Bible prophecies?
The purpose of prophecy is to warn us about future crises. For example, God warned Noah of the coming flood, Abraham and Lot of the destruction of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and He told Moses of the plagues of Egypt. They all had to obey the warning in faith. These events were recorded to teach us that whatever God foretold happened exactly as He said. Hence, we cannot afford to ignore any of His yet to be fulfilled prophecies as they serve as warnings that, if we obey, will protect us from crises.
Therefore, Bible prophecies serve a double purpose - to impress on our minds the existence of God who is in control of all events and, to warn us of a grave situation.
