Failed prophecies of Jesus

How do christians explain Jesus' failed prophecies ? Here are only two among several.
Matthew 10:23, Jesus told his disciples that he would return before they could go over all the cities of Israel with the gospel. The gospel has since been preached all throughout Israel, & continues to be so with christian television now, & still Jesus hasn't returned.
Mark 14:62, Jesus told the high priest that he would live to see Jesus' second coming. Of course the high priest died before Jesus returned.
So there is two false prophecies made by Jesus. Any explanations ?

No doubt, but they are not Christians. Just because a person claims to be a Christian does not make them one.

Matt 7:21-22
21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
NKJV

I've not seen or heard of one christian outside the questionable New Testament who has healed the sick or raised the dead. That's because it doesn't happen. No one has the power to raise the dead, & only doctors have the ability to heal the sick through medicine. If you know a faith healer that can really heal the sick send him my way, I can test his power. Your claims are unfounded & ridiculous.
You are a typical liberal; mind closed and intellecetually dishonest. You select bits from the Bible that you can take out of context or alter to attempt to prove your point, discredit the Bible, and vilify the God of the Bible, but when anyone else appeals to scripture to prove you wrong, youi dismiss their proof out of hand because it comes from the Bible. There is no such thing as a "faith healer". When the Gospel is preached correctly, some will be healed in comfirmation of that Gospel. I have seen people healed of various things for most of my life. You have never heard of one because you move in the wrong circles. Until you allow others to use the same material that you do in these discussions, there is no point in going any further with you.

I would prefer that you not go any further with me, because you are more brainwashed than most christians.

Deists cannot be brainwashed, they use their God-given reason in determining truth, & they don't let some book such as the bible do all their thinking for them. They think for themselves.

I truly hope that you meant this in jest and don't actually believe that deists cannot be brainwashed.

Deists don't have a clergy, or holy books, or rituals, or any such thing that might serve to brainwash them.
