Dear mincc, Greetings in the name of Jesus! "But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification and exhortation and consolation." 1 Corinthians 14:3 NASB Some may require a prophet to be a perfect 'voice of God' and a 'future-seer' in order to be bona fide. Others might say that the prophets ended with the Old Testament, John the Baptist or maybe with the 'closing of the canon.' I think that the above work of prophecy is still in effect. I believe that the Old Testament prophets and New Testament prophets both, were normal human beings (with the notable exception of Jesus the Prophet, Priest and King!) that had a ministry that was under the leading of the Holy Spirit, thus were not 'perfect' all the time. I think that the Holy Spirit still does give supernatural insight and direction, but it is not at the prophet's 'beck and call' as some may claim. Therefore, I believe that there IS a role for the present-day prophet, but this ministry is much abused and misrepresented. May the Lord continue to give His gifts and ministries until His glorious return! In Christ Jesus, charis |
