"Dr. A.T Pierson reminds us of three canons by which all prophecy can be tested.
1. It must be such an unveiling of the future that no mere human foresight or wisdom could have guessed it.
2. The prediction must deal in sufficient details to exclude shrewd guesswork.
3. There must be such lapse of time between the prophecy and the fulfillment as precludes the agency of the prophet himself in effecting or affecting the result."
Isaiah 9:6-7
