Subject: prophets for today |
Bible Note: Dear Brother Tim, I just came across that expression last night regarding prophets "foretelling and forthtelling." However, I can't seem to recall where I saw it. I thought it was an excellent point... and a good way to remember that prophecy came in those two flavors! I had heard the distinction between conditional prophecies and unconditional prophecies. Thanks for the reminder... I need those or things drop right out of my head again! In Him, Doc |
