Bible Question (short): Truly searching for a prophet? |
Question (full): Dear Jensen, Peace to you in the name of Jesus! Are you truly searching for a prophet? What do you want to hear? The weather report for next Christmas, perhaps? :-) Ranting about wrath to come? That God loves you? Or maybe the details of the 'two witnesses' or the 'seals' or the 'horsemen?' What about the exact date, time and location of Jesus' return. Brother, what is is you want to hear from a true prophet? I you ask me what I want to hear, I would say that I want to hear the word of God, living and active, separating wisdom and foolishness, the true and the false. This word would be edifying, exhorting and consoling, and would serve not only me, but all of His church. I already know much about the future days, they are written in the Bible. But I would like to know how I am to serve God and His people, and maybe where and to whom. God may quicken His servants to give holy guidance in these areas. Then again, maybe He will not, at least not yet. If you think about it, every shepherd should have at least a little sensitivity to the mind of God for the flock entrusted him. Is this not prophesy, and desirable, and pleasing to God? Friend, I sense a frustration, maybe even an anger in your post to EProphet. Yet I find little in his post that is offensive. Your final warning was either too melodramatic, or just plain rude and uncalled for. I guess only you know which. (unless, of course, I am a prophet! :-)) You may want to come to Yokohama sometime in your quest! Peace and joy in Christ Jesus, charis |
