This means, "What!?" I am shocked that you would make such a claim! Do you believe everyone who doesn't share your beliefs are dangerous... or is it just the JEWS??

Most people I know do not understand how the Prophetic Office is/was used by God. Most people who claim to be prophets really aren't, but they certainly wish they were... as if the Office affords them special privilege or elevates them above "Ordinary Mortal." I certainly hope this is not you.
When I look at the prophets in Scripture and when I look at the function of the prophet as outlined by Moshe, your statement against Messianics proves that you either do not understand your office and have failed, or you are a false prophet, or what's outlined in the next paragraph applies. I prefer to believe in your misunderstanding of the office, but I also realize the possibility of the second.
The difference in opinion [regarding the Prophetic Office in the Older Testament vs. the Newer Testament] may be such that we may be "speaking through" a perceived change in the office. What I mean is that many people believe that much changed because of Messiah's death, burial, and resurrection... and it's possible that they also believe the Prophetic Office and how it functions in the Qahal/Ekklesia is different now (for instance, many believe the Prophet does not need to be error free now). Is this your belief? The "New Testament" Prophet function differently than the "Old Testament" prophet?

Why? I hope you don't think prophets are perfect in
knowledge. I hope you
don't think prophets are perfect
communicators.
Peace be with you.
