Just looking at one that is claimed by many Christians as proof, Micah 5:2, I wonder.
It says: But thou, Beth-lehem Ephratah, though thou be little amon the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
The obvious question to me is this: When did Jesus ever rule over Israel? One might say that he shall, when he rules over the world, but then why didn't the prophesey say that he would rule over the world? Even if we accept this answer, isn't that a prophesey yet to be filled?
Just curious as to where others stand on this.
