A Word Concerning the Prophets! — 15 Comments

  1. Can’t fully agree with you here Veronica. If a prophet proclaims X Y and Z will happen and they don’t they aren’t hearing from the Lord. There have been many voices saying things that haven’t come to pass in the last few years. If we can’t understand the meaning of a prophetic word or it’s so vague what’s the point in the church hearing the word?
    If we hear a word that may or may not happen- again- what is the point of the word?
    Obedience determines the outcomes rather than words of a prophet? Jesus would never have come in the flesh or risen from the dead if people’s belief or people’s obedience was a prerequisite for the word to be fulfilled.
    There are many precise words given by prophets and recoded in the Bible which were believed and understood by those that heard them and it wasn’t contingent on man for them to be fulfilled.
    I believe in a God that a) speaks, b) fulfills His word and c) still uses prophets to speak his word.
    Yes He may be deliberately vague at times but not always.

    • What you have said is exactly what Veronica is warning against. If I got her correctly, she says the tendency by prophets to succumb to the temptation to give predictive prophetic words rather than revelations of the will and intention of God, is the reason many “prophetic predictions” never get fulfilled. I don’t think she is denying the rule that the accurate fulfilment of a prophet’s prediction proves that they are true prophets. Unfortunately, as she seems to imply, there are many sorcerers that pretend to be prophets and use fulfilled events of their worldly prophecies such as plane crushes, to try to convince us that they are true prophets.
