~ Prophet’s Role ~
Do you know what a prophet does?
The following is an
excerpt from a book.
“Now as a prophet Jesus Christ comes
to do two things. All of you have heard before of that meaning of a prophet
before which says that a prophet not only foretells things, but he tells things
forth. That is, a prophet is one who speaks of things that ought to come before
they happen, and then they happen. A prophet is a man who writes history before
it occurs. Besides that a prophet is a man who stands in the local situation
and he describes what ought to be done because of what’s existing.”
