ESSAY: PROPHECY Guidelines of Biblical prophecy include:

Prophecy is a declaration of knowledge which belongs exclusively to the omniscience of God.
Prophecy is revelation of the supernatural light of God.
Prophecy is explained by God in Deuteronomy 18:18-22, which gives points concerning prophecy:
God put the words in their mouths.
The prophet spoke "only" what God commanded.
People are to pay strict attention to words of God's prophet.
If a prophecy is from God, then the test is that the prophecy will happen exactly as spoken.
Real prophecy is a vital part of the Bible: Biblical prophecy is deeply buried throughout the Old Testament and was also a means of establishing the Old Testament.
Prophecy pervades the entire Bible.
Prophecy, in many cases, is very specific.
Prophecy often deals with events remote in time and with people or kingdoms that do not exist yet.
Fulfillment of prophecy is clear. Fulfilled prophecy constitutes a supernatural act.
