I do not deny it. I have said repeatedly the apostles and the prophets laid the foundation for the Church. How could they do this if they did not exist in the early Church? Their role ended with the completion of scripture. God had said all He needed to say to us. The scriptures now form the...

Your experience is not what determines reality. The word of God is the only reality. Anything that doesn't line up with His word is false. If the word of God does not change your understanding of reality, no-one here can. Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed...

Don't you listen! Our argument is God no longer appoints prophets or apostles for that matter. Has nothing to do with what you may or may not say, dream or may not dream. There are no prophets today. You have not been called to be a prophet.

Can you expect anything less? Hezbollah started firing rockets into Israel before Israel even responded to the Gazan threat of October 7th. They have fired almost 10,000 missiles into Israel in the past year. I'm amazed at the patience Israel displays. You don't have to be a prophet to see the...

It isn't any prophecy he has made that is the problem, it is the assertion he claims that God has called him to be a prophet because he has had some prophetic dreams. Nebuchadnezzar had a prophetic dream, but no-one would say he is a prophet of God. It has been argued from scripture that God...

True, but I'm hearing the heart of an evangelist behind the words. Either way, it's between him and the Lord. :)

We're all special to the Lord. Some of us just need a little more attention than others. ;) On a serious note though .. The office of evangelist is specific and is held to a greater responsibility than the rest of us who are called to witness just as those who are called to be a pastor/teacher...

And how does the next part negate the purpose of a foundation which is to build upon and is built once at the bottom of the building? If anything, it reinforces what I'm saying. You wouldn't have Christ crucified over and over, but you want to continue laying foundations all the way up the...

And calling yourself something you're not is also a form of lying. Based on what I have seen so far, you are more likely an evangelist. The foundation has been laid, no more foundations needed. Rely on scripture, not your experiences. Ephesians 2:20 having been built on the foundation of the...

Really? Then why do you think I need to be encouraged? Not weird, you have not shown anything to overtly suggest you know the Lord with any depth of understanding. You claim to be a prophet, give vague predictions of doom and gloom and claim you're unimportant while constantly defending...

Of course it's me, it's always the other person whose wrong. ;) As I said, there is nothing to say He went through anything, He simply appeared. Most likely had to do with quantum physics, wave/particle duality, beam me up Scotty stuff. I don't know how God does what He does. He was raised...

You should read the book of Revelation. It's all in there. :) Lose hope? You don't know me or the Lord. ;) 1 Corinthians 13:13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

It doesn't say he walked through a closed door. He simply appeared in the room. You stick to a body of flesh if you want, I'll have the body that's made from the stuff of heaven thanks. :)

The filling, indwelling and being born again are 3 different ministries of the Spirit.

Some prophet you are. I'm on the other side of the world mate. :ROFL:

That body was still flesh and bone, so no, not the glorified body. His glorified spiritual body was not received until after His ascension. Luke 24:39 Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have.” 1...

It has also been explained to you that prophets were used to lay a foundation in the building of the Church. That foundation are the scriptures. There is nothing you can say that has not been said by God in full. You can claim you are a prophet till the cows come home, it doesn't make it so. The...

But if the argument is about whether the gift of prophecy is valid for today, how is that not pertinent to your thread? A prophet needs that gift. Wouldn't be much of a prophet without it. You are the one who has called themself a prophet. I see no evidence. Any believer can be prophetic but...

I think you have that back to front. In John 20 they were given the Spirit much like the prophets of old. It was an empowerment to aid them as they waited for the baptism of the Spirit by which they would be indwelt, filled, sealed and gifted. John 20 tells us Jesus breathed on them, not in...

What about all the times they were? Day of Pentecost and the 3,000 thousand that were added that day. Peter said they would receive the Spirit, no need to ask. Acts 2:1-4 and v.41 Then we have those who were added daily to the Church as the Apostles ministered. Acts 2:47 Then we have the five...
