New Testament Prophecy
So, I was in a healthy debate with my brother on this. He feels that modern day prohecy is simply speaking the Word of God (the Bible), and not containing any prediction, as there is no new revelation.
I, on the other hand, feel that prophecy, being a gift of the Holy Spirit, is something more. While I will agree that there will be no new revalation, God may give you a word to pass on to another, just like in the old testament. If prophecy was just professing the word of God, how is that a gift? Can’t anyone (saved or not) read the words aloud and be a “prophet”? Maybe I am just splitting hairs. I am pressed for time, so I have no scripture to back up my point at the moment, but please feel free to comment and leave scripture to back it up.
