Prophecy

Hearing from God Almighty. What could be more important than that? Through the ages, prophecy has been a primary way that people have heard from God. Nevertheless, prophecy is often misunderstood. The purpose of this book is to give Christians a basic understanding of prophecy by answering such questions as: What is prophecy? Is prophecy always about the future? Is all prophecy from God? Why do some prophecies not come to pass? Must I do anything to have prophecies about me come to pass?This book sets forth some things to consider if you are given a prophecy, and also what you should know if you are going to prophesy to someone. The appendixes will give you a firm grasp of many important aspects of prophecy, such as the differences between the ministry of a prophet and the manifestation (sometimes called 'gift') of prophecy, how to tell a genuine prophet from a false one, what part dreams play in prophecy, and what revelation is and how it comes to the person prophesying. The book closes with a list of many examples of prophecy in the Bible to help you with further study.
