I don't think prophets should hit or miss, my point was the prophets will miss because they are human.
When was the last time you told someone God will heal you, and they didn't get healed. Did that make you a false prophet?
Or when you told yourself that you feel God in something and it turned out not to be the right decision.
I have a different take on Deut. 18, when its emphasis on Moses and his likeness to Jesus Christ and no one can take their place I think v.15 highlights that. But strong meat belongs to those who have exercised their senses and clearly there are many on here that......
You didn't respond to my posts about I Cor 14 or I Thess. 5, Steve you are prejudiced against most gifts or only allow a very a narrow expression of them, I won't be the one to change your mind on this so we will have to disagree on it and leave it alone. |
Keith you are wrong on several points:
1. If I told someone God told me personally they were healed they had better be healed. And for your information that has happened on more than one occasion.
2. I do not go around claiming I FEEL God in stuff. Either I have a direct word from Him or I don't. I do not invoke the name of God to buy cheerios at the grocery store. I am not into hocus pocus stuff. I was raised in Kentucky where this foolishness was the norm. NOT IMPRESSED.
3. I believe gifts are judged by the passages you cite so where is the argument. If they missed I would sit them down. Gifts are not a spiritual lottery game.
4. I am NOT prejudiced against genuine spiritual gifts. I have prophecied-gave messages in tongues-interpeted-discerned spirits- having been given at times both the word of wisdom &* knowledge-saw healings-miracles and faith in my small ministry. NO ONE that knows me would agree with you assessment. I do NOT believe in foolishness purporting to be spiritual gifts that hit and miss, using guessing to make someone think I am a spiritual guru of somekind. I HATE the circus atmosphere found in services where the so-called prophet calls out folks to say LOOK AT ME. I have had men and women give me prophecies and I have acted on them. I know men thatif they told me God said I would stand at attention but I am not the least bit impressed with the assembly line prophets that always are giving folks blessing and never pick up on adultery and fornication.
Outside of these differences we agree.
