Prophecy warfare

[mustaphadrink]

Is the gift of prophecy relevant for today ?.

Most definitely

 

[mustaphadrink]

The whole Bible is based upon prophecy from start to finish.

Jesus wept. Is that prophetic?

 

[mustaphadrink]

a person with the gift of prophecy needs to wait on the lord continuously

All believers need to do this

 

[mustaphadrink]

I also read that the war between the two sets of prophets has never gone away and the church needs more people to be fully trained if they suspect they have the gift of prophecy.

A controlling spirit seems to be the norm even when it is God's domain.

 

[mustaphadrink]

Not in Scripture, you didn't.

So we ignore a lot of what Charles Haddon Spurgeon preached because a lot of what he said was not in scripture

 

[mustaphadrink]

but calling it the work of a "Jezebel spirit" is a waste of energy.

No energy lost on my part accepting the obvious

 

[mustaphadrink]

Looks like you are claiming to be a prophet. Before you go any further, why don't you tell us what is the true Gospel?

What has that got to do with the true gospel?

 

[mustaphadrink]

Many churches do not seek the higher gifts.

Many churches do not seek any gift other than the gift to control

 

[mustaphadrink]

anything else outside of this is false prophecy.

\

a bit of a sweeping statement

 

[mustaphadrink]

The Gift of prophecy is also to be an intercessor for the lord through prayer.

That is an assumption without evidence.

 

[mustaphadrink]

A pastor speaking from the Bible is effectively prophecying

Judging by some of the rubbish that emanates from the pulpit I doubt it.

 

[Nehemiah6]

What has that got to do with the true gospel?

Someone who claims to be a prophet but cannot present the true Gospel would be rather unusual.

 

[mustaphadrink]

by taring down the gift of prophecy into you must be a false prophet, using power phrase like here comes another sheep in wolves clothing.

Please explain

 

[mustaphadrink]

Speaking God's rhema word is prophesying. Speaking God's written word is not.

You are confusing the issue

 

[mustaphadrink]

Not at all biblical. Scripture doesn't mention a "spirit of Jezebel" anywhere.

it doesn't mention cars but we still drive them.

 

[mustaphadrink]

it is God's Word being messaged.. which is prophecy (scripture).

You wish

That's a really serious one. I'll go looking for that story in Acts, Paul recorded it. Simon the Magus (the one famous for saying "who is Jesus Christ that I should worship him") also had this slave girl who the Bible describes as having "had a demon familiar" and he made a lot of money on her.

She can't have been a real prophet, because the Bible is specific in saying that she had a demon, but it also says that he made a profit, so I assume that she was accurate.

There are a lot of unusual people in the church these days

All right, so define it as it is from scripture then, mustaphadrink. Rather than being a smart alec

Just wondering why the wall of one-liners.... no offense meant, just curious.
