Subject: Prophets in the church |
Bible Note: Hello Nevvine, Thanks for your response. The focus of my reply was to imply that I choose to believe in the sufficiency of the Word of God, not "so-called" modern-day Prophets! I have confidence in what God's Word says (John 17:17)! However, I do not believe that any true Prophets exist today! Jude 1:3 implores us to "...contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all handed down to the saints." Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
