The enemy uses the same tactic. In this case he wants to destroy legitimate prophecy.
He started in the church saying prophecy has ended. This is an indefensible position theologically. Some adopt it as their dogma anyway as a defense against false prophecy and look ignorant for doing so. All of their teaching is suspect because of it.
Then the enemy introduces many types of prophecy which are unverifiable, touchy-feely, or fear based. The Rothchild interpretation of the book of Revelation is a fear based prophecy. Some 'methods' which are taught open one up to demonic influence as people want the power of telling the future.
Prophecy of the Old Testament speaks of Christ. All of it. Along a timeline prophecies A, B, C, D speak of Christ. As they overlap, they sometimes look like A prophesies B.
Where the confusion takes place is that God said that Israel would be a parable for the rest of the world. Sometimes A is the prophetic script of events that will occur in B but which still speak of Christ.
Prophecy only looks like it speaks of the future because Christ was yet future. There is no power to tell the future. There is only 'power' to speak of Christ. All the scriptures speak of Christ, therefor all the prophecies speak of him.
New Testament prophecy speaks of Christ hidden in the OT prophecies as the OT is interpreted properly. OR the events of life speak of the cross looking backward in the same manner that the events of life for Israel spoke of Christ and the cross looking forward.
Yes. Real prophecy can be taught. The power of telling the future is a fraud which tempts the flesh the same way that Marvel Comics tempt kids to want to be little gods. Who wouldn't want omniscience?
Future telling is a fraud. Even if what is said comes true, if it speaks not of Christ, it is fraud.
