Since you obviously did not read Till's essay ( and why should you...you only read things that tell you what you want to hear ) I'll quote the relevant part so you can ignore it again and then insist that your made up shit is right.
Quote:This matter also came up in my debate with Bill Jackson. He tried to circumvent the problem by claiming that the prophecy was only spoken by the prophets and that nothing was said to imply that it had ever been written (Jackson-Till Debate, p. 20).This is at best a far-fetched quibble that fails to take note of the fact that Matthew routinely introduced written "prophecies" by saying that they had been spoken by so-and-so. He said, for example, that the "voice heard in Ramah" had been "spoken through Jeremiah the prophet" (2:17-18). Earlier he had said that the famous virgin-birth prophecy of Isaiah 7:14 had been "spoken by the Lord through the prophet" (1:22). He introduced Isaiah 9:1-2 by saying that this had been "spoken through Isaiah the prophet"(4:14). He introduced Isaiah 42:1-4 by saying that this had been "spoken through Isaiah the prophet" (12:17). There are numerous other examples in Matthew to show that his style was to introduce alleged prophecies by saying that they had been spoken by such and such a prophet. If the prophecy-fulfillment argument offers such wonderful proof of divine inspiration, then, we have every right to demand that bibliolaters show us just where it was prophesied that Jesus would be called a Nazarene as Matthew claimed in the passage cited from his gospel account. How can there be proof of divine inspiration in a prophecy statement that may never have been made?
Ignored! Your brain is so full of sand that you make no sense at all, from now on I'll just ignore you, thanks for the suggestion.

Your beliefs are depressing me. Maybe you should look outside the box. Maybe you will find that hope, like all other human emotions, come from within us, as corny as that sounds.
That does not sound corny, I believe that same thing only in a different light. I did look outside the box and there stood God waiting on me. Since my beliefs depress you I have a suggstion, don't read what I post and be glad.

Your every breath betrays you.
That was not what I said, you are always trying to rewrite what I say. The NT would be nothing more than the OT without Christ and there would not be any advantage to having two OTs. The OT is a wonderful book and directs one in life and you nor I nor anyone could live up to it's standards of God given law, so thus Christ and the NT.

Shaking the magic 8 ball to find out ...
Make sure you shake it till you get the answer you want,OK.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
