[[The question isn’t whether or not prophecy is biblical, the question is if this specific guy is a prophet, or not.]]

The test is whether they get ALL their prophecies correct or not- [[His name is Mark Taylor, coauthor of The Trump Prophecies, who says nearly everything God told him is coming to pass.]]

“Nearly everything”? Apparently God isn’t quite as accurate as He used to be?

Also- prophecies did not deal with common sense guesses- They usually dealt with things that could not have been seen or known by the one prophesying- for example- prophets in old testament said Christ would appear- He did- Adn that He would die on the cross- He did- The cross was not used at the time of those prophets- they had no way of even knowing about that method of execution- let alone prophesy it would happen

Psychics at best can guesstimate correctly about 60% of the time- and they almost always involve common sense reasoning- people who practice psychic predictions are good at observing known situations and predicting based on those facts- and have a higher than usual ‘success rate’ - however- they fall far short of the prophets who were correct 100% of the time and who prophesied about things they oculdn’t possibly know about other than through divine revelation

There is nothing in the Hebrew Bible about J*sus or crucifixion.

Chrstians take such scriptures as Isaiah 53 and Psalm 2 out of context and insist they must be referring to J*sus because that's what the "new testament" says. If one didn't already accept the "new testament" from the get-go, one would never see these scriptures as prophesying J*sus.

But of course I've pointed this out a zillion times and challenged anyone to offer proof but no one even tries. Chrstianity is just true for no apparent reason, and apparently Moses was an Independent Baptist.
