Monotheism simply means belief in one God. Of your four statements:
- "worships a single god." — True. That is the defining feature of a monotheist.
- "rejects prophecies." — Not necessarily. Many monotheistic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) accept prophets and prophecy; rejecting prophecy is not intrinsic to monotheism.
- "expects to be reincarnated." — Not inherently. Reincarnation is characteristic of some religious traditions (e.g., certain Hindu, Buddhist, and some mystical Jewish or Sikh beliefs), but it is not a general feature of monotheism.
- "makes a personal covenant with God." — Sometimes, but not universally. Covenants (collective or individual) are important in several monotheistic faiths (e.g., Judaism’s covenants, Christianity’s “new covenant,” personal relationships with God in many Christian traditions), yet a formal personal covenant is not required by the definition of monotheism.
Short answer: only "worships a single god" is necessarily true for a monotheist; the others may apply in particular traditions or to particular believers but are not defining.
