There are those that claim they can see the future. From the side room psychics to wannabe Nostradamus; their claims are nothing but vague guesswork and fuzzy images. With some imagination, you can bend their prophecy into something that maybe resembles the facts of the future.
But the prophecy of God is different.
For example, in Psalm 22, in describing the fate of the Christ it says of those that mock him “All who see me sneer at me; They separate with the lip, they wag the head.” This event occurs hundreds of years later, exactly as foretold. In Matthew 27:39 “And those passing by were hurling abuse at Him, wagging their heads.”
Only the God of the universe could see so clearly into the future that he could see the faces of those that at the cross!
