GENESIS 5:24
(Allegedly fulfilled in Mark 16:19 and Revelation 12:5)
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
Is this verse considered a prophecy? No.
Does this verse say anything at all about Jesus Christ or the rapture event mentioned and predicted by Paul and others in the New Testament? No.

GENESIS 9:26-27
(The God of Shem will be the Son of Shem)
(Allegedly Fulfilled in Luke 3:23-36)
GENESIS 12:7
(The Promise Made to Abraham's Seed)
(Allegedly Fulfilled in Galatians 3:16)
Galatians 3:16 is simply an explanation of what Genesis 12:7 means, not a fulfillment of it!
GENESIS 14:18
(A Priest After the Order of Melchizedek, King and Priest of Righteousness, Last Supper Foreshadowed)
This verse allegedly has multiple fulfillments in Hebrews 6:20, Hebrews 7:2, and Matthew 26:26-29. The alleged fulfillment in Hebrews 6:20 and Hebrews 7:2 are simply assertions and definitions, and the Book of Hebrews itself is anonymously written. Some Christians say that Paul wrote it and others guess that Barnabas may have written it, but no one knows for sure. Claiming that this verse foreshadows the Last Supper in Matthew is also simply an assertion with little or nothing to back it up. There is no fulfillment here in these verses of Genesis 14:18.
GENESIS 17:19
(Seed of Isaac, allegedly fulfilled in Romans 9:7)
Romans 9:7 is part of an explanation of Genesis 17:19, not a fulfillment.
GENESIS 22:8
(The Lamb of God Promised, allegedly fulfilled in John 1:29)
Genesis 22 contains the story of God testing Abraham by offering up Isaac, while John contains the story of the baptism of Jesus. The two stories are not connected in any way, and John 1:29 certainly is not a fulfillment of Genesis 22:8!
