Anonymous people cannot be witnesses. The operative property of a witness is that he can be identified to give testimony.

You SEE it is the Creator that must validate his prophetic declarations.
That is not the meaning of the relevant scripture. The Creator is not human and therefore cannot be a witness within that meaning.

But you are wrong about my knowledge of the Scriptures—
No, I am not. You display at best a third-grade understanding of scripture.

No, there is no magical body of knowledge that only you may possess and which magically saves you from all accusation of error. Logically that is called the fallacy of special pleading. We reject illogical arguments.
