Difficult for the spiritually minded perhaps. The statement by John, "None of us stand above the forest," is completely false. It is not truth. It is error. What do you think the prophetic is all about? It is about seeing from God's perspective, and believe me, God does stand above the forest. His view is uniquely above that of the natural man. In the interest of keeping this post short, please consider the following passage of Scripture in light of the idea that "none of us stand above the forest." Such a statement denies the power of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. 1 Corinthians 2:9-13 (9) But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. (10) But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. (11) For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. (12) Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. (13) Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. Peace be with you.
