He said so in His last words on the cross, which were subsequent to your bold printed text.
This is akin to someone in the late 1600s going around telling people that they've come to cast spells on everyone, and then predicting that they'd be killed as a witch. Would you be equally impressed if such a person ultimately burned at the stake as predicted? C'mon, man!
The christers always manage to forget that jeebus (or, more logically, the NT writers) had knowledge of and easy access to the OT writings. Very, very easy to contrive the fulfillment of prophesy that way.
Now if the buy-bull had something like this I'd be impressed:
In the latter half of the 20th century there will be machines that will seem to think and will be able to do many tasks that until then could only be done with far slower, more labor intensive processes. And, lo, they shall be called computers.
That would be a fucking prophecy.
No, all we get is bullshit on top of lies on top of ignorance.
