Bible prophecy

Bible prophecy is when a religious text, like the Bible, foretells (or predicts) events that are going to happen in the future. People think that if they can see these events that were predicted in the Bible, then it might be a sign that God is real and is watching over us. For example, if a prophet in the Bible wrote that a certain country was going to be destroyed and then the same country was destroyed, people might believe the prophecy was right and it was God's will.
