THE TRUTH ABOUT PROPHECY: 02.Prophecy In The Old Testament - Zac Poonen
Zac Poonen · Mar 27, 2012 · 57m
The speaker discusses the nature of prophecy, contrasting the emphasis on the 'person' of the prophet in the Old Testament with the emphasis on 'prophesying' (the ministry) in the New Covenant.

He concludes by noting that the first prophets, Enoch and Noah, both exemplified this by first walking with God before prophesying.

Zac Poonen · Mar 27, 2012 · 54m
The speaker addresses the confusion surrounding prophecy, noting two extremes: those who believe prophecy has ceased entirely and those who misuse the term. He emphasizes that understanding prophecy requires adhering strictly to the whole Bible and approaching scripture with a humble, 'babe-like' mind, free from tradition's prejudices.
