Be hard to argue that Enoch was not the first

can anyone please quote the text in the bible that is a prophecy of Enoch? I tend to agree he was the first but I began to think and I don't recall ever seeing and actual prophecy recorded that was by Enoch, and I do realize there are many things not recorded in the bible and this doesn't mean they didn't happen.

Abel was a prophet, according to what Jesus said.


Luke 11:49-51 NKJV
[49] Therefore the wisdom of God also said, 'I will send them prophets and apostles,
and some of them they will kill and persecute,' [50] that the blood of all the prophets
which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation,
[51] from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah who perished between the altar
and the temple. Yes, I say to you, it shall be required of this generation.

Abel could also be regarded as a Priest, his animal sacrifice is the first mentioned in
the bible.

I have said before that the Bible is an integrated, divinely written, inspired Book. (All of it)


There are some 1800 prophecies throughout the Bible, both OT and NT. Many have come true and there are those yet to come.



Where is the first prophecy of our Savior's death?

Genesis 3:14-15 NKJV
[14] So the LORD God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, You are cursed
more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go,
And you shall eat dust All the days of your life. [15] And I will put enmity Between you
and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel."



Romans 16:20 NKJV
[20] And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord
Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.




Isaiah 7:14 NKJV
[14] Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear
a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.


Her seed, ie Jesus would be born of a woman but not a man.
It was intended Satan would be crushed by human beings through Jesus, the reason for
that enmity. The reason Satan does not like us and goes around like a roaring lion seeking
to destroy, he wanted to be the head and ended up being trampled under foot by mere human
beings who were victors in Christ. It's not just the first prophecy of Jesus death, it sets out the
foundation for the entire victory won. If only we can all learn to walk in it.

Hallulujah what a saviour.

Prophecies Yes, but not of his Death and certainly not the first....

Yes, but I was looking for a Human Prophet?
Ever consider the passage in John 8:

17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

So if if the testimony of two men is true then who were the two men that bear witness of him?

Wouldn't the serpent be the first prophet since he prophesied they would not die if they ate the fruit of the tree in the midst of the Garden? Or was the serpent a nut? Or would the LORD God had been the first prophet since he prophesied not to eat from the imaginary tree?

And God (Elohim) said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. Genesis 1:29

Now the serpent was made before man, And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. {See Genesis 1:25} The beast was formed from the earth thus it is written, "Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. Then in Genesis 1:26 was man conceived, "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."

So in the Garden it is written that the serpent said unto the woman, "Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?" {See Genesis 3:1} Do you know of any tree which does grow from a seed? Do you know of any tree which did not produce tree yielding seed(s)? Think "in which" is the fruit of a tree yielding seed might be the fruit of nut trees?
But anyways, anyone ever wonder what tree the Woman ate from if it is written "... and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons." Genesis 3:7

It'd be great if you cut to the chase of what this thread is about. Feels like your withholding to see what others will say first.
Yea I think he may have gotten hold of a bible trivia site ...which is fine ..but please don't play the "I'm a bible teacher" game ... Bible Trivia has little to do with real biblical knowledge

Hi Breno: May I Call you Breno.

First, I made a mistake when I created this thread. The name of it should have been Prophecy Corner instead of Prophet Corner.

I did not know how to change it so at this time it remains "Prophet Corner". If someone knows how to change it, please clue me in and thanks before hand.


To answer your Question, I started this thread to help broaden their understanding that prophecy has a large part of binding both the old and the new testament together as part of God's plan.

I am not withholding nothing but rather giving others a chance to research and find it themselves. While they are researching it, they are also learning more of God's wonderful Word. Sort of a large Bible Study.

One other item, I did not state that I was the only one who could ask a question about a prophecy. There are 1800 or so.

Now, can I help you any further?

The Serpent lied to Eve.

God told Adam: Genesis 2:17 "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."

2 Peter 3:8 "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”

Genesis 5:5 "And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died."

God did not tell Eve anything, Adam did?

The definition of a prophet is "as one appointed by God Himself to be His messenger". The Dictionary def. "a person regarded as an inspired teacher or proclaimer of the will of God."

Satan is a fallen angel and could not be a prophet from God.

I ask everybody on this site "Do Not Believe a Word that I Say" but rather check it out for your self as the Bible tells you to do.


Acts 17:11King James Version (KJV)

"These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so."
