2 | what is a prophet's reward? | Matt 10:41 | EdB | 59681 | ||
loperrayman@aol.com It is an unspoken reward but maybe this will help it comes from the Believers Bible A. T. Pierson comments: The Jews regarded the reward of the prophet as the greatest; because, while kings bore rule in the name of the Lord, and priests ministered in the name of the Lord, the prophet came from the Lord to instruct both priest and king. Christ says that if you do no more than receive a prophet in the capacity of prophet, the same reward that is given to the prophet will be given to you, if you help the prophet along. Think of that if you are inclined to criticize a speaker! If you help him to speak for God, and encourage him you will get part of his reward; but if you make it difficult for him to discharge his office, you will lose your reward. It is a great thing to help a man who is seeking to do good. You should not regard his dress, his attitude, his manners or his voice; but you should look beyond these things and say, “Is this message of God for me? Is this man a prophet of God to my soul?” If he is, receive him, magnify his word and work, and get part of his reward. EdB |

3 | what is a prophet's reward? | Matt 10:41 | Ray | 59687 | ||
Hi EdB, Thank you so much for your post here. I would add that even as we support our speakers, and church leaders we should all the more receive this Man, Jesus Christ. I believe that these verses are talking about Jesus and thus I capitalize Man and Prophet. From the heart, Ray |
