So good about Paul!! The prophetic still served its purpose to affirm to Paul that his race had been run and these things were truly happening!! Great explanation on that thing! Perfect I think
1 Corinthians 3:16 “Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?” ... If God is in you, something of God should come out.
Romans 8 7. The carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. .. John 3:6,7 “That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit.” “Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.”
The reason why prophets cannot operate freely in the church is because the "leaders" condemn any prophet that they don't agree with or that speak against church politics. That's a serious problem. Pastors are not more important than prophets. I prophesied that a certain church would shut down within two years because of unethical behavior in the leadership and in less than two years it did shut down. God told me this would happen and it did. Another time I prophesied that the pastor was living in a specific sin and a few weeks later he was caught and removed from his position. How could I have known except God Himself revealed these things to me?! I strongly disagree that God doesn't use prophets to prophecy against church leaders. That is part of their job. We are called to submit to prophetic voices just as much as pastoral voices. The prophets voices have been stifled in the church except for those that only prophecy things that are pleasing to the ear.... that is not how it should be. Let us pray that God raises up more prophets.
The function of the Prophet is not only prediction or telling the future but teaching the Word of God. ”And he gave the apostles, the PROPHETS, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.“ (Ephesians 4:11-14 ESV)
I've heard many prophetic messages spoken in Church and not one single message was to condemn someone, and the messages I heard was more along the lines of inspiration and the Lord saying: "Do not fear for I am with you, and will bring you out of the valley like I did to Moses and to my ppl who were enslaved in Egypt," but I've never heard a prophetic message that condemned someone of their sin, especially to a congregation of ppl filled with the Holy Ghost.
The purpose of the evangelist is to correct the church. Also Peter proclaimed to speak words that were equal to the words of the book of Isaiah. No church government should not over take the will of true Prophecy, but should be there to provide dictation onto records, and provide support through the use of scripture. Organization of men can lead to distribution of the practice of the way.
@@MUSICONTHEREDGE First of all, Peter's words were not his own, 2 Timothy 3:16 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. For someone to say a certain book IN THE BIBLE has more authority than another book IN THE BIBLE is absurd.
I hope you tackle each gifts of the Spirit. It would be a great series for sure
“He’s given us a brain”- Bishop Bernard, love it!

If God is in you, something of God should come out.
Blessings! Powerful teaching! Just to give you all a heads up, there is a slight static sound in this podcast. Seems pretty noticeable with earphones.
Can prophesy be interpretation of tongues ?
Interpretation of tongues is a separate gift, per 1 Corinthians 12:10. (Podcast Production Team)

God bless Dr Bernard, very well said Sir.
Revelation 19:10 states the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. In the Greek prophecy is also poetry by extention

Someone let me know how I can ask this man a question I need answer to.
Thank you, brothers. God's blessing on you in Jesus name
Church government is above the gift of prophecy? Many times the prophetic gift exposes sin in someones life or shows events to come.
I've heard many prophetic messages spoken in Church and not one single message was to condemn someone, and the messages I heard was more along the lines of inspiration and the Lord saying: "Do not fear for I am with you, and will bring you out of the valley like I did to Moses and to my ppl who were enslaved in Egypt," but I've never heard a prophetic message that condemned someone of their sin, especially to a congregation of ppl filled with the Holy Ghost.

@@willf9779 right. I'm saying true prophecy was spoken before it was written.
That doesn’t mean a person that prophecies is above the man/position of authority. We’re all called to submit to God, then one another.
