1. The Bible predicts Egypt will lie uninhabited for 40 years (Ezekiel 29:12): "And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries."
2. The Bible predicts Jesus will come without warning (1 Thessalonians 5:2): "For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night."
3. The prophecy of Egypt lying empty for forty years remains unfulfilled.
4. If Ezekiel's prophecy of Egypt's comeuppance is set aside in light of Paul's prophecy of immanence, then Ezekiel is a false prophet.
5. If Egypt begins to lie uninhabited. then Jesus cannot come for at least the next forty years, which serves as a warning and makes Paul a false prophet.
