The term prophet should be understood by the vast examples of a prophet in the OT, yet it seems we cannot get beyond thinking of a prophet as a fortune teller.
Paul best defines a prophet in Corinthians 14.
But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. All future foretelling of OT prophecy that were not conditional were those foretelling of Messiah. All the rest were conditional, that these things would come upon them if they refused to repent. |
You are not reading everything. I already acknowledged it is simply being a prophet when you speak what God wants spoken. But the issue of THIS thread has been foretelling.
