In this discussion, we will be discussing prophecy, primarily, that of prediction and fulfillment as discussed with the excerpt from Hill and Walton. First, discuss what the definition of prophecy based on our reading from the textbook, and from other sources. Secondly, discuss the importance of fulfillment, as anyone can give a “prophecy” but fulfillment is what makes a prophecy, true or not. Finally, discuss which portion of the prophecy is more important, the prediction of the prophecy or the fulfillment of the prophecy and why?
