I am wondering if Thomas Gibson should be considered a true prophet.
Reason: Book 2 of his prophecies, 2001-2004, at
http://www.telusplanet.net/public/tsgibson/book2.html , includes these two prophecies:
2002 10 10.1
Hear the word of the Lord. Canada will lose its ability to balance their budgets because of the downturn and crash of the economy.
Therefore, I have stated by this My word that there will be no more balanced budgets. I will bring so much debt to Canada that they will marvel at this problem; and I will never again, from this moment on, allow the budget to be balanced.
So I will end the prosperity of Canada.
"From this moment on" would seem to indicate that after 2002, Canada would never have another balanced budget. This is not true. Here is a quote from
http://www.cbc.ca/news/background/budget2005/ :
"Finance Minister Ralph Goodale delivered the Liberals' eighth straight balanced budget Wednesday, with promises to spend billions of dollars on military, national day care and cities, as well as offering some measure of tax relief."
This took place on June 22, 2005.
2003 12 7.1
In the Name of Jesus this country [Canada] will go far to the left in politics. The right wing will flounder and not succeed. They [the new right-wing Conservative Party] will never be in power. I have anointed the Liberals as leaders for elections to come because this country must be judged, and they are My tools to accomplish this. You will see the Liberals and the NDP as the main parties in parliament in the years to come. [/i]
I live in Canada, and Stephen Harper, leader of that "new right-wing Conservative Party" was elected on January 23, 2006. He has now been prime minister for seven months. This would seem to contradict "the new-right wing Conservative Party will never be in power"! Also, his government seems to be surprisingly popular. He is still ahead of all other parties in the polls.
Since some of Thomas Gibson's words have not come true, unless I am reading his prophecies wrong, should he be considered a true prophet?
