unless you are Mormon or Muslim, then I already know the answer. What evidence would you need from the alleged Prophet to validate his authenticity?

Yes. I am claiming to be God's next chosen prophet.

A prophet is a messenger from God, in visions and dreams he may foretell the future, these visions and dreams must come to pass. Prophets speak under God's authority. Many false prophets have risen and we must be careful in whom we believe.
See; Jeremiah 14:14;23:16
Ezekiel 13:9
2Peter 2:3

Until the end times I don't believer there are to be any prophets. If you find someone who clams they are then when they make a forecast which they state is from God if it is ever in any way wrong then they are not a prophet.

Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

The person would need to follow biblical criteria for establishing the gift of prophecy.
First they would have to be 100% correct all the time.
Second they would have to give a short term sign of their gift.
Further they could not contradict established scripture.
If any of these things failed they are false prophets.

Gender could be beside the point. because the literary critic Northrop Frye and the atheist sci-fi author and pupil Isaac Asimov have both said, the Bible is "finished" as we've it. it can be like attempting to connect a sequel to a Shakespeare play or a Hemingway novel. It basically would not ring actual.

I don't think Muslims believe in a living prophet, but I'll let them speak for themselves...

I think a true prophet of God would not call too much attention to him/herself.... but rather focus on spreading love and healing to anyone that he/she could ... without regard to what's in it for her/him or the media cameras that would be after them.

GOD Almighty Still Energizes Prophets.
Are you Able to "Discern" who are the Real Ones?
Even when they Miss It?
