DAVIDM... Well, I am not one of those kinds who says, "I AM A PROPHET." As I said before, I tend to be one who runs from the call when it comes (like Jonah). I try to find excuses why not to go or why somebody else should go. I am trying to do better, but I still have a lot of room for growth. SLADE... How do you KNOW you are a prophet? SLADE PREVIOUSLY... > So which are you!?! The never give a word type, > an occasional word type, or the always a word > type? DAVID RESPONDED... I don't recognize these different types that you have outlined. There are true prophets and false prophets, and I believe that I am of the true variety. Of course, it would be ridiculous to think that there exists a prophet who never gives a word. That's like saying there is a baker who never bakes or a teacher who never teaches or an evangelist who never evangelizes. SLADE'S NEWEST RESPONSE: Ok, you understand my point. However, I have never met a true prophet, though I believe true prophets exist. SLADE PREVIOUSLY... > Are you willing to test the mettle of > your prophetic gift? DAVIDM RESPONDED... No, not really. I don't want to tempt God. I take the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness seriously. Satan challenged him on whether or not he really was the son of God. Jesus was tempted to prove himself, but he did not. The Pharisees also asked him for a sign to prove who he was, and Jesus said that an evil and adulterous generation seeks for such signs, but no sign would be given them but the sign of Jonah. SLADE'S NEWEST RESPONSE... Yeshua was tempted to "prove" his deity. You are not deity, therefore the comparison is lacking. Your last response about the sign of Jonah is the same argument made by the ridiculous false prophet Daniel John Lee (may God not forget his iniquity). We, the normal Joe in the universe is to be given something to prove that a prophet should be listened to and you deny us the right to that proof. I can only surmise that you are not what you claim, but it's clear by your next statement that you don't care either. DAVID M... If you think that I do not measure up to what a prophet ought to be, that is your decision. What we are in the body of Christ is something we do not have to protect or defend. We are who we are. Jesus told me that those who receive me receive him, and those who reject me reject him. Therefore, I leave it all in the hands of my Lord. SLADE... Yeshua spoke that in response to Himself and His relationship with God... AS THE ONLY MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MAN. You are nowhere even CLOSE to the majesty of Yeshua. You are hiding behind some of the worst Biblical interpretations I've seen on TruthTalk. You are not the mediator between man and Yeshua. If this is what you believe, I am in the wrong discussion group. -- slade ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
