Miguel, Though I totally agree about Benny my question was more with whether a true prophet could ever "mix some of himself in the prophecy" and get it wrong. I disagree with Jerry's claim that prophecy is a "joint-effort" and his contention of the opening statement: If prophecy was 100 % Holy Spirit, there would be no Biblical injunction against "despising" it. If it is true prophecy than it is 100% Holy Spirit. Yes Man is the vehicle and the prophecy will come using the man's personality, but the prophecy itself will infallibly be God's. Prophecy is equal to inspiration - the words are God breathed. No where in Scripture do we have a true prophet who every mixes some of himself in the prophecy. Hence I asked Jerry for a Biblical example of a true prophet of God not quite getting it right.
