Do you know that everytime someone scoffs at Bible Prophecy, they are fulfilling it?

How is that? The fulfillment of a prophecy occurs when the event prophesied actually occurs. If you're pointing to the fact that most prophecies will be scoffed at, then that is just the fulfillment of one prophecy, not each one.

Besides, if it's a false prophecy, it can never be fulfilled.

Is scoffing at Hal the same as scoffing at Bible prophecy? If so, then Hal's a fraud and call me a scoffer.

Guess I've done a lot of fulfilling over the years!

1. St. Malachy is not "Bible Prophecy," so I'll scoff whenever I want.

2. Do not make the mistake of confusing my disdain for dispensational premillenialism, a system invented in the 18th century using dubious exegesis, as "scoffing Bible prophecy." Just because I think the pretrib rapture is based more on wishful thinking than sound Biblical exegesis doesn't make me a scoffer of "Bible prophecy."

3. Lindsey, LaHaye et al. deserve to be scoffed. They've been so wrong so many times, it's not funny.

Fortune-telling is bad for your health. Evenif you try to use God Word as your ouija board. A neurotic anxiety to know what the future holds is incompatible with joyous confidence in the God who holds the future.
