Ah, a word of rebuke is just a sign of "bitterness?"
Reminds me of another thread here... would we be able to receive the word of a prophet if it doesn't make us feel good?
Not saying he IS a prophet.
But we are commanded not to despise prophesyings...
Instead we are to consider, and weigh, and judge.

So, there are now four witnesses on this board that have considered the words of this witness and found them to be sourced from within carnal-mindedness (bitterness, resentment, anger, etc...).
Has truth been established for the readers of this thread on this forum in accordance with 1Co 14:
Quote:
Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
If [any thing] be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
|
As a point of reference....are each of the persons who responded [to judge a prophetic witness], persons who occupy the general category of persons being challenged in the alleged prophesy?

Are we not suppose to rebuke an Elder?
If this came from someone that was seasoned, that you knew THEIR life was a living en example , then i might sit up and listen. but who is this person? what do we know about him? perhaps he has faults of his own???

is this what Scripture teaches? That only those who have clout can offer a word from God?
If he's wrong, let it be judged.
If he's right, let the repentance begin.
Paul told the Corinthians to "set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church".
We shoudl judge righteous judgement, not according to the appearance as the world does.

I didn't say "clout" Elias. that puts a different spin on it.
I'm talking about an Elder who has lived what he preaches.
what do you know about this person that you would fall hook line and sink for his prophecy ?

powerful reminders you have provided. thank you.
If God is preparing righteous judgement pertaining to the invisible stuff rather than the messangers, this may be the advent of a wonderful and terrible time to be members of his own body, the house of God.
