When we’re talking about Biblical events of prophecy, many take clear statements from it - and roll it into speculation - and say that the combination of both are PROPHETIC and thus Biblical.

CNN doesn’t have the “infallibility” and “inerrancy” of Biblical statements (of which Biblical statements are from God Almighty). Therefore CNN can only go on the basis of VERY FALLIBLE INFORMATION (much of which is purely speculative, and people already know that).

The trouble I’m talking about here on this thread, is mixing the “speculative” with the “infallible” and “inerrant” - and calling the combination of both - “the Word of God”.

My point is that in both cases, there is speculation about situations that lack positive evidence about a given topic. A person can make all sorts of guesses about things that are not stated in the Bible without questioning its infallability.

The Bible is not an encyclopedia containing all ‘known’ truth..... It is the record of the revelation of God — the story of redemption..... It provides all we need to know about some subjects, like how to be reconciled to God.....But it doesn’t tell all we’d like to know — and someday will know — about other subjects.

Some have difficulty understanding the flow of information in general....most Media is controlled now and depicts whatever the powers that be would have them deliver for consumer consumption. They “frame” the agenda....

Speculation is interesting to hear, but it is just that...much we won’t know... and much will be lies we are told. The truth often falls between or absent altogether.

I’m one to check with His Word...if it conflicts then safest to put ones trust in what He says.
