Do you have any evidence to show that no time in the Bible a prophetic statement was made which was not later fulfilled??

Hmm, let's say 3000 years ago someone predicted a "man" would come amongst us claiming to be god -- was he predicting Jesus or Jim Jones? Seems to me he could claim his prophecy was fulfilled to believers of either. So it all seesm pretty darn subjective. Not exactly compelling proof, if you know what I mean.

Oh really? I wasn't aware that Jim Jones was born in Bethlehem.

You really have to take the whole fabric of the prophesy into account. It was quite specific. But, then again, your analysis was rather subjective.
