       God lays out his plan for the future carefully and precisely. Namely, Jesus will return a second time to establish his kingdom that he did not establish the first time. And the Bible tells us about what will happen after that and the future of eternity. All of this being said, how do we really know that God will do what he says? Well, in the Old Testament God said he would do a great number of things, which were fulfilled the New Testament. God said that he would send his son into the world for the redemption of both men and women. He did this, of course, in the person of Jesus Christ. And in accomplishing this task, God fulfilled numerous amounts of little things that added up to the complete picture. An example of this could include when Jesus was on the cross, he said he was thirsty so that He might fulfill an Old Testament passage (John 19). Later in Acts, the Apostle Peter would fulfill an Old Testament passage by have the newfound church pick the twelfth disciple after Judas had gone astray. Not only to mention events like this, but we as Christians in our own lives can see God working through his Spirit as we live out our Christian life. People today who are not Christians do not know God and cannot have this experience.
