I agree with Beloved that Prophet was only a small part of who Jesus is. Well said.

Since a prophet is a mouth piece for God, and they tell people what the Will of God is, Jesus was certainly a Prophet. He was the only one who knew perfectly what the Will of God was, so He told us, and He told us what the new Will of God for man is. In the past, the law was 'eye for an eye,' but because of the law of grace, the new law is 'turn the other cheek.' Jesus told us these things and how life would change because of the law of grace. He also prophesied to John in Revelation through a vision of what was to come. Being a prophet doesn't mean telling people what will happen in the future. Satan has perverted what the word 'prophet' means. A prophet essentially means someone who tells us what the Will of God is. Some part of that prophecy involves the telling of future events, but not all. Prophets were also sent to correct the immorality of the Israelites. The thing about Jesus was, that He wasn't just a prophet, He was God Himself in the form of man. Because there are some religions who say that Jesus wasn't God but just a prophet of God, just like Jeremiah was.

Sure. A prophet speaks of impending change that will come. Gotta give the man credit for this title.

So he prophecied war and natural disasters. Big deal. I think there will be war and natural disasters sometime in the future, and I'm not a prophet. Also, there is such a thing as advertising, even back in those days. When selling this new religion, Christianity, to the heathens, why not inflate Christ's accomplishments (he was already a great man without the miracles and divinity and stuff - if he existed) by claiming all sorts of supernatural powers for him? Like he healed the blind or cured lepers or predicted that an earthquake would destroy Cyprus or something. The heathens, who believed that demons and magic were just as real as rocks and trees, must have been blown away by these ridiculous claims. I mean, the Gospels themselves get progressively more fantastic as we move from Matthew to John, with Christ going from an influential teacher and revolutionary, in Matthew, to the mightiest sorceror in all creation, in John. Nope, Jesus was a prophet only in the sense that he saw things more clearly than most people did at the time, and not because he could predict the future.

Read in the Bible when He was at the Mount of Olives with His diciples. He said that there will be great wars, earthquakes, other natural disaters and other such things. YES! What Jesus predicts to what is happeining today is true! From here, there is no reason to say that He isn't a prophet.

If there ever was a prophet, Jesus was one!
