How can you prove it was postdiction?
Again, if you examine each book of the Bible, and really look for dates and so forth, you can come out with a date of when the book was started and completed.
How can you prove it is prediction? That is the claim on which you base your argument. You can not prove this, so your argument has no base.

So you're saying that Babylon never did fall to the assyrian army?
That was not an example you gave. You said that the new testament said that Jerusalem would fall to Babylon. In fact, you said this:

Quote:
It was foretold that Jerusalem would be destroyed in one night by the Babylon army, those that survived would be carried off into exile for 70 years and then return to their homeland to restore their city. This in fact did happen.
There was nothing about Assyrians.

2nd Timothy 3: 1-5 has some. Earthqacks, wars, famines, pestilences, nation rising against nation, etc.
Oh, so he said that some very common disasters that had happened in the past would happen again? That is like saying the sun will rise tomorrow. Well duh. It doesn't make it impressive at all, and does not mean that anything else in the Bible is true just because of that.
