Prophets Amongst Us

[miknik5]

Phil 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Especially to the glory of God the Father.

For the cause of Christ

Father

glorify me with the glory I had with you before the world ever was


do you you mean THAT glory

Did you know that it is CHRIST in us who is our HOPE of Glory?

 

[miknik5]

By the way
that glory could not come to us any other way because there was no other way for THAT CUP to pass

 

[miknik5]

CHRIST came for the very purpose to give HIS life for the sheep

To open the way/door/Gate between heaven and earth by and through HIS body

 

[notuptome]

Father

glorify me with the glory I had with you before the world ever was


do you you mean THAT glory

Did you know that it is CHRIST in us who is our HOPE of Glory?

The glory that Christ set aside to become a man to die for the sins of mankind?

The beautification of the Godhead is deep stuff.

Believers will be glorified together with Christ in the day of redemption unto which we are sealed by the Holy Spirit. When this corruption puts on immortality.

For the cause of Christ

You mean filling up in our flesh what is lacking according to the afflictions of CHRIST
Do you mean that HE must increase, we must decrease and that we can do all things by CHRIST who strengthens us?

and apart from HIM we can do nothing?

who is leading us by HIS life-giving SPIRIT

And what, according to John 15, are we required to do?

 

[miknik5]

The beautification of the godhead?
it was a process here when HE came to enter into HIS glory...FOR US


But it’s finished

its not a process
its not an ongoing action

its complete

HE did the work of bringing back to GOD through faith in THE CROSS those who will believe

Our sanctification is an ongoing work

but how much more BEAUTIFIED must GOD strive to be but that HE be glorified in HIS children

 

[miknik5]

If CHRIST is the FULL RADIANCE of HIS GLORY, how much more is needed

Getting back to prophets and the gift of prophecy in our Pentecostal Fellowship
operated one after another to a maximum of three gifts of such

1 Pursue love, and seek eagerly the spiritual things, but rather that you may prophesy.
3 But he that prophesies speaks unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
4 He that speaks in an unknown tongue edifies himself;
but he that prophesies edifies the church.
5 I would that ye all speak with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesies than he that speaks with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:
25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.
26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

Yeah! What should we prophecy of?

 

[Waggles]

Yeah! What should we prophecy of?

God through the Holy Spirit gives prophecy - inspired speaking to
edify, exhort and comfort the church.

 

[Deade]

Yeah! What should we prophecy of?

Hi miknik5,

You can't use prophecy, noun, for the verb prophesy. Sometimes you can use prophesy as a noun, but not the other way around. Just thought I'd help.

Yours,

Deade

 

[miknik5]

God through the Holy Spirit gives prophecy - inspired speaking to
edify, exhort and comfort the church.

But will not go beyond the foundation and the teachings of the apostles

that’s forthtelling of the scriptures (bringing forth new treasures out of the store hold of things already contained in HIS WORD)
not foretelling and adding to the WORD
No one is to go beyond what is written

 

[miknik5]

Hi miknik5,

You can't use prophecy, noun, for the verb prophesy. Sometimes you can use prophesy as a noun, but not the other way around. Just thought I'd help.

Yours,

Deade

Oh I understand
still forthtelling of prophecy (what has already been given us in HIS WORD)

and not foretelling as in adding to what has already been given us in HIS WORD

For the testimony of JESUS is THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY


And is sufficient

only ONE SPIRIT, ONE TRUTH, ONE TESTIMONY

 

[miknik5]

Even when we exhort and encourage one another, we remind them of HIS WORD and PROMISE given us

So in your understanding of this passage does a person who seeks to prophesy need to be a prophet?

[mailmandan]

In regards to the gift of prophecy, is it a gift of proclamation “forth-telling” or prediction “fore-telling”. Why would we need a prophet today to give us revelation about something that the Bible has not already told us? When I turn on TBN, I see "profits," not prophets.

 

[garee]

Yes he prophecies to us that those who reject his revelation will receive a sign against them called tongues. They turn the law in respect to the spirit of faith acording as it is written upside down and seek after the sign rather than the prophecy .And secondly God is no longer bring any new prophecy .The Bible ends with a warning . Why go above that which is written ?How could that prove prophecy .. Are you receiving new revelations?

Perhaps reading the verse slower prayerfully you might get a beeter understand ing of the law and those who sek to make it to no effect. Tongues is a sign to those who believe not (no faith) they walk by sight after the natural course of this world.

1Co 14:22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.

right!

God's doing a new thing...or He's going to do a new thing so get ready! not sure how you are supposed to get ready?

and 2018 is YOUR year...expect new revelations from God..

and of course the default proclamation 'God is moving' I wonder where He is moving to?

be a part of this great move of God! how do you do that? send MONEY

blah

phonies, hirelings, false prophets, false teachers and very busy scratching itching ears

Yes prophecy (noun) is simply the word of God declared.To prophesy(the verb) is to declare his will as it is written This is regardless as to whether it is past present or future. God is no longer bringing any new prophecy. What we had up until the last book ,Revelation. Today for over two thousands years we have the whole or the perfect ending with a warning no to add or subtract in respect to that which is sealed up till the end of time .

Why would a person today even desire to go above that which is written? Is their a law missing by which we could know Him more adequately?

There is only one program that I enjoy watching and it happens to be on Daystar. There are many on this network that I wouldn't recommend .. but this one I absolutely love. "Reflections". Bible verses ... beautiful scenery ... and soft gospel music playing in the background. Often it is my sanctuary and the last thing I hear and see before nodding off
