Question

What is the difference between the gift of prophecy in the church and a prophet?

Answer

Now, that isn’t true. That isn’t true. Gifts and callings are without repentance. There is spirits that’s in the Church. That’s true, such as gifts of prophecy, healing, and so forth. But they’re in the entire body. They may fall upon one person tonight, a prophecy, and It might not never fall on that person again; It might be somewhere else in the body. And those spirits are supposed to be judged. “Let one speak and two or three judge,” said Paul. Now, those are the spirits of the gifts that’s in the Church. But the only person that has a right to say, THUS SAITH THE LORD, is an a vindicated prophet. You never seen anybody judging Isaiah, or Jeremiah, or those people. They were prophets, foreordained and borned in the world to be prophets. And they foresaw the thing by a vision, and then said, “THUS SAITH THE LORD,” for the Lord had already said it. So what the Church needs today, is a good old fashion teaching of the Gospel. That’s right. To know where they…I don’t mean just educated teaching; I mean spiritual teaching. Some people speaks about God, and—and knows nothing of Him. You don’t…See, you must get down and deal with the actual spirit itself, you see, to know what you’re speaking of.
