Hi, ministermay! There are several requirements that must be met; among them are these: * Special Fellowship with God * Knowledge of God * Knowledge of man * Must have God's authority * Must support the Word both in action and in words In Acts 3:22 Moses is quoted as prophesying about the PROPHET that was to come--He would have complete authority! Both Luke 7:39 and 1 Corinthians 14:37 make it clear that a prophet, from God, has discernment, granted by the Holy Spirit, and is able to understand (know) the Scriptures and humanity. Luke 24:19, demonstrates that the people of God have a long history of recognizing God's prophets: they teach with authority, reveal things that come to fruition, and they have the power of the Holy Spirit directing them! Now, not all who prophesies come from God: Revelation 2:20 demonstrates this exceedingly well! If a prophet commands that we follow another "Jesus" or another "Gospel" we will be running into the mouth of the abyss! Further, Revelation 13:11-15 talks about the end of times when the world will be witness to great signs (wonders), which mimic Christ's first coming, that will bewilder and seduce humanity. We must remember though that Jesus warned about prophets in Matthew 11:13: Because it was towards John that all the prophecies of the prophets and of the Law were heading; As someone said one time: "there's nothing new under the sun." God Bless! Angel |
