You yourself are only going by other mens own thoughts and misinterprations......
They can all be confirmed and I could add that prophecies that supposedly came true are largely a matter of interpretation, it's easy to go through all the events happening over many years and select bits which seem to fit.
Take for instance the first on the list in that link "The Destruction of Tyre", The prophesy was fulfilled over 200 years later, in 332 BCE by Alexander the Great and his Army. It may not always be a fulfillment in the way you would expect but a fullment in a way Jehovah states.
Proves my point.
The prophecy can only be said to have come true in the most vague of ways but one thing that plainly didn't come true is that God said it would never be rebuilt and it was rebuilt so there's a fail there.
For a prophecy to be considered a prophecy, it has to be of a precise event taking place at a precise time in a precise way and written before any knowledge of the possibility of the event being known, there are none to be found that fulfil the criteria.
The prophecy of Jesus birth, life ministry and death was fulfilled
The nativity story has a number of serious inaccuracies when compared to known historical events and has all the appearance of being written to fit prophecies rather than to have been prophesied, apart from it being remarkedly similar to a number other stories from other beliefs concerning the birth of a god.
Study the myths of Krishna, Odysseus, Romulus, Dionysus, Heracles, Zoroaster, Attis of Phrygia and Horus.
All of those show a remarkable similarity to the Jesus myth many predating it indicating the distinct possiblity it is just a common story repeated across different societies and times.
Considering the effects at the time were it that Jesus actually existed, it is remarkable that no contemporaneous accounts exist anywhere, there are no eyewitness accounts or anything written before Mark about 40 years after the supposed death of Jesus.
Even the League of Nations then the United Nations organisations where prophecied about
That's just silly.
