Q: How can God know the future? How can God make everything?

Summary

How can God know the future? Dr. E unpacks this question by pointing to Scripture’s prophetic precision. From Isaiah’s writings—700 years before Christ—to Jeremiah’s prophecy of Israel’s exile and return, the Bible repeatedly reveals God’s perfect foreknowledge. Archaeological discoveries, such as the Assyrian carvings of Israel’s captivity and the Pontius Pilate stone, confirm what Scripture already declared true. Dr. E reminds us: the Bible doesn’t need to be proven—it proves the evidence around it. God knows the future because He wrote it.

The conversation then turns to creation itself—how God made everything ex nihilo (“out of nothing”). While humanity can invent and build using existing materials, only God can bring something into being by His word alone. From forming Adam from the dust to speaking the cosmos into existence, creation reveals God’s unmatched power and sovereignty. In a world that marvels at human innovation, Dr. E points us back to the Creator who authored time, matter, and life itself.

Takeaways

Biblical prophecy demonstrates God’s complete foreknowledge.
Archaeological evidence supports, not disproves, Scripture.
God’s promises—like Israel’s return from exile—always come true.
Humanity can create from something, but only God creates from nothing.
God’s sovereignty extends over all time, space, and creation.
The Bible’s truth continually aligns with world history.

If you’ve been wondering whether faith and evidence can align, this is one you won’t want to miss.
