I am amazed that people do not see what is right before their eyes.
1Co 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
1Co 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit
the word of wisdom; to another the
word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
1Co 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
1Co 12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
1Co 12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
Do you know what a word of knowledge is? When someone comes up to you and reads your life this is not prophecy, Paul tells us what prophecy is.
1Co 14:3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
So In my humble opinion, there are many prophets in the kingdom of God we just don't call them a prophet because of our traditions have gotten so far off the word of God we don't know what thing are. We would rather take Websters over the word of God when the word tells us the meaning of a word.
As I was editing this I thought of something, I will throw out,
1Co 12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
1Co 12:2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
Could it be the Corinthians had began to do what we have done, raised those that were used in one gift more than others to a higher position in the kingdom of God?
