There are two ways the word "Prophet" is used in the Bible.  One way is as a preacher or teacher of the Gospel message.  ( The story of Christ's coming, his death for our sins, his resurrection, and his intercession between us and God.)  The Gospel is finished.  That story is done.  We are told to share the Gospel message.  God expects us to do that.

The second way the word "Prophet" is used is as a person who can predict future events as revealed by God himself.  This type of Biblical prophecy is always about something God predicts will happen to the Jews, or predictions about the coming Messiah.  The book of Revelations is the last word of prophecy.  There will never be any more prophecy.   We are just waiting for the final fulfillment.

Since we Christians believe that all the Old Testament prophecy has been fulfilled in Jesus.  That is behind us.  The only Biblical prophecy left unfulfilled is the prophecy of Christ coming again.

There are over seventy prophecies in the Old Testament concerning Christ that Jesus fulfilled.  The statistical probability of one person meeting all of those predictions is higher than all of the people who have ever lived.  Jesus was it.  (You recall that I am a mathematician.)

We need to be very careful that  what we believe is Biblical.  God said we should not take out the dot on an "i" or the cross on a "t".  That means that all Prophecy has already been written.  So when someone comes to you and says they have a word of prophecy from God, just ask them where that is in the Bible.  If it isn't there, then they are not from God.  He calls them "false prophets".

Jesus said, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves." Matthew 7:15   Remember, the devil is the father of lies.

We believe the Bible because of prophecy.  It is an amazing book that gets it exactly right every time.  There is no other book like it in the history of man.  Make a habit of reading it.
