Ah... I'm asking just to bring some balance, discussion, and introspection. Why insult me, especially before inquiring as to why I ask? Now, that to me equals lack of discernment and common sense. Doesn't the Bible says that a fool answers a matter before hearing it?
The point is... we all assume that a prophet will say good things to us. We never consider that prophets have always been highly unpopular and had tendency to be mocked by those they were sent to.
I suspect he is a prophet of bad pizza eaten too late at night.
lol
I agree. However, prophets are hardly popular and tend to be mocked and rejected by those who they are sent to. What if a true prophet were sent to AFF? Would we treat him/her any different?
So far, you've rebuked us for various things and declared that we don't have the Holy Ghost. Now that you've indicted us, what are you asking us to do???

Nah, this one is just a kook head. He gave only ONE prophecy so far.."God told me when Timmy would die." Asked when? TYDR dances around the question.
Only ONE prophecy, and it was a failed one...hahaha
So much for being a prophet...lol.

I'm not convinced that Trying2DoRight is a prophet either. This is all hypothetical.
However, what if he is? Every people who rejected a prophet thought of him as a kook. In addition, they pointed out what they believed were false prophecies. What if the prophesy simply doesn't come to pass as we expect it to?
What if Trying2DoRight is indeed "feeling something" in his spirit and is trying to express it as best as he can and is coming off all wrong due to lack of experience? What if there is a thread of truth in what he's saying? What if the message is coming from an imperfect earthen vessel?
Again, this is all hypothetical. I'm not so sure that if a prophet did come to AFF he'd be very popular. He'd probably look rather kooky to us.
So far, we've berated him for berating us. We've criticized his message and critiqued his prophesies. I haven't seen anyone ask him what God expects us to do... IF he is correct.

Yes, I know you're being hypothetical. BUt like you pointed out, a prophet will not only declare "what's wrong or right", but should also say what the way forward is,
In our "resident prophet's" case, he just spouts random phrases like "Because I said so, or is that from the Holy Ghost, yes/no" hahaha..
How in the world is that helpful?? Prophecy should edify (1 Cor 14).
About prophecy not coming to pass as we'd expect:
Let me clarify my previous post. TDR said "God told him/her when someone would die." When asked when, TDR runs away from the question.
So, it's not worth being called a false prophecy since there was no prophecy given.
It was just basically a LIE

Any trailer park trash can hide behind a screen name and say they are a prophet. I think it's someone who it having fun with an altered ego. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

well, to start with we can judge any prophet and what they say by the Word of God. in the case of our current rambler, what the bible says and what the rambler says makes less sense than Harry Reid.
