and it cometh to pass;
generally speaking, as is asserted.

Luke 12:55 In-Context

54 Jesus said also to the people, "When you see a cloud coming up in the west, at once you say that it is going to rain - and it does.

55 And when you feel the south wind blowing, you say that it is going to get hot - and it does.
