Predictive prophecy as criterion for divine inspiration

A Bunch Of Reasons Christianity Is True: special guest Jonathan McLatchie 00:02:36 – 00:05:44

Jonathan McLatchie explains how the Bible itself uses predictive prophecy as a criterion for identifying divine inspiration.

Deuteronomy 18 sets the standard: a prophet whose words do not come to pass did not speak from God. Isaiah 41:21-24 records God challenging the idols to predict the future as proof of their divinity — only Yahweh can forecast the future. This makes predictive prophecy a key evidential category.
