How Do I Know That The Bible Is Not Just Another Book?

We were flying at an altitude of about 35,000 feet. I had just picked up a book and started reading. Then I noticed that the bearded youth beside me was reading along with me. He had read the Oriental mystics, the philosophers of the ancient Middle East, and even a few college texts, but he had never seen anything quite like the book I was reading. His interest in my book amused me, but I said nothing and kept reading. Finally, he could stand it no longer and said, "What is this book you are reading?" I replied, "It is a commentary on the last book of the New Testament--the Book of Revelation. It is almost 2,000 years old. In this book God tells us of the future and what is going to happen." It is like history pre-recorded.
