The focus of our study today is Isaiah 45. This is a prophetic passage in which the prophet Isaiah predicts the freedom of the people of God from Babylon by the hand of Cyrus. Critics of course point their guns at this passage, claiming that it was written after the liberation of the Jews. They argue that the Jews fabricated the story in an attempt to deceive people. Let’s establish at the outset that the main aim of the critics is to discredit the veracity and the power of biblical prophecies. Agreeing that these prophecies are legitimate will mean that the Bible is indeed the word of God and is authoritative. So they find cunning ways to reject the historicity of the Bible. But time and time and again , archeology has come in handy and corroborated biblical prophecies and facts. Today we are going to analyze Isaiah 45 and show that it is indeed an authentic prophecy, see video below

My name is Tayib Salami and I started Tayibs.com for the sole purpose of exploring difficult questions about the Christian faith that most of us shy away from. In 2017, I entered a very dark time in my life and it’s only by the grace of the Living God that I’m still alive today. It led me to really go deeper in my faith and consider a myriad of questions that I never thought about asking myself or others before. Welcome and enjoy the ride with me.
