How well can you predict your death?

Death, it is something that all people know is coming someday, any day in the future. Most people are born, work 30 to 40 years, retire, and soon after that die. Some people die unexpectedly at an early age due to cancer or some other disease. Some people die at the hands of another who took their life. The question is, do you know when your time will be up? It would be strange if we knew the way we would die, or the place we would die, or who would kill us, if we were to be murdered. We do not have the benefit of knowing the future. There was a man who did know the future, and He predicted His death down to the smallest detail.

This Man predicted that He would be betrayed. He predicted who would betray Him. He predicted who would bring charges against Him. He predicted what the verdict would be. He predicted His friends would deny Him. He predicted He would be handed over to the gentiles. He predicted they would mock, spit, flog, and kill Him. He predicted He would rise in three days. His enemies knew these predictions so they placed guards around His tomb. This man who predicted these thing was Jesus Christ. As we know by being just humans, that we cannot predict our death. Jesus Christ was more the a person. He was God in human flesh. His predictions prove this. If you do not know Him yet, place your faith in Him today.
