Subject: How to exercize the gift of prophecy? |
Bible Note: I guess it must be our definition of prophesy. Here is one definition. Prophecy. This is supernatural utterance in the native tongue (1 Cor. 14:3). It is a miracle of divine utterance, not conceived by human thought or reasoning (Acts 3:21; Acts 11:28; Acts 21:11; 2 Peter 1:21; 1 Cor. 14:23-32). It includes speaking to people to edification, and exhortation and comfort (1 Cor. 14:3). It is not always tell of future events. Am I correct in thinking that God does not communicate with you except by scripture. Scripture is used to verify what someone says God has told them is from God. It will never contradict scripture. Prophesy is not an addition to scripture. In fact not all the Old Testament prophets prophesies were made part of scripture. I hasve never read a prophesy that came out of the school of the prophets. This is a Forum where the understanding of the Bible is discussed not whether someone is right or wrong. It is a place of learning. These posts are meant as points of discussion nothing more. |
