The Prophetic: Why Is It Central?

Details

In this podcast, we talk about the spiritual gift of prophecy — the kind described in 1 Corinthians 14 where Christians “speak to other people for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation” (verse 3). Wayne Grudem defined prophecy this way: “Telling something that God has spontaneously brought to mind.”
Prophecy is based on who God is: One who speaks and communicates, whose written word begins and ends with His speech. First and foremost, this is a call for us to cultivate friendship with God, to relate and listen to Him, and to saturate ourselves with His words in Scripture.
