Bible prophecies are for believers.
We know this is true because: if people believed in Christ, then they would also believe in the Bible, which would enable them to believe in the prophecies. But because they have rejected Christ, they have also rejected the Bible, as they have also rejected the prophecies.
Because we have placed our faith in Christ, our faith is also in the Bible, which enables us to believe the prophecies.
Knowing this, then we know that when we read the prophecies, we are looking through the eyes of God and seeing the future as God sees the future.
"For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness; but unto us which are saved, it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent." (1st Corinthians 1: 18-19)
To the world, we are narrow-minded and not exactly normal.
Of course.
Though we are no longer normal to this world, we are, therefore, normal with God because we have been "saved to the uttermost" (Hebrews 7: 25) The world no longer understands us because our kinship is with Christ and not with the world.
Still, we are continuously thankful to God as we are also continuously amazed at God's amazing grace for seeing us through His eyes.
