@codebyjeff it says that in order to trade they would need to carry the mark of the beast on their right arm or their forehead. The beast being the antichrist, being Nero

@codebyjeff I am wondering if the term "true prophet" can be valid at all. Anyone can come up with an example?

Isn't foretelling the future over large timespans in general an act of hubris? Do predictions not always inherit some uncertainty?

Or is it the ambiguity of predictions that can render them true either way?

@codebyjeff

No, he doesn't consider him being a false prophet, but a (false) doctor, instead.

Didn't you get that?

@Amorpheus @codebyjeff If you want a somewhat Christian-catholic answer. A prophet not necessarily predicts the future, but claims to be connected with God or speak for it.

Jesus, speaking of false prophets, says that to recognise them, you have to see "the fruit they bear". A false prophet will never bear good fruit, a true one will always bear good fruit.

Depending on the interpretation, a true prophet can simply mean to be a good decent person, that never actually claims to be a prophet.
