You don't even have to be an End Times prophecy scholar, there is PLENTY of fulfilled prophecy in the Bible. About 2500 prophecies are recorded in Scripture, of which 2000 have come to pass without error (source). Of the Messianic prophecies, there are over 300 Old Testament prophecies that Jesus Christ fulfilled in his birth, life, death, and resurrection. The odds of any man fulfilling just 8 of these was 10 to the 17th power.
Thus, more than any book ever produced the Bible is the only text that has been completely accurate in every prophetic line. These are not vague passages that can be interpreted in a number of ways like the so called prophecies of Nostradamus - the Bible holds day specific prophecies that have come true.
This leaves my liberal friends in a bit of a lurch because they like to pick and chose what Scriptures they are going to believe and which ones they are going to discard. So instead of dealing with the rational arguments that dictate the faulty reasoning behind such theology, they leave prophecy out all together. They don't deal with it past, present, or future. (2 Timothy 4:3)

As a result, they are like wind swept waves (Ephesians 4:14) - thrown around by every wave of doctrine that passes as new biblical truth. They have no foundation for interpreting world events, no way of judging where we are or who is teaching them (Matthew 24:11). They rely on their opinions and feelings to tell them what is right and what is wrong (Proverbs 28:26). They rationalize sin. The Bible calls them carnal Christians (1 Corinthians 2:14).
Settle your mind Friend, the ONE source of truth, the ONE source of life (John 14:6), and the ONE source to tell you where we are going is the Holy Scriptures (Matthew 5:18, 2 Timothy 3:16). Don't be proud (James 4:6), don't think too highly of yourself (Isaiah 5:21), you are not the arbiter of truth and you know if (Romans 3:4).
