Prophecy

  • Prophecy within “Christianity” (from “Prophecy” entry in Wikipedia).
  • “What is the spiritual gift of prophecy?” (GotQuestions?org) – argues that ‘prophecy’ in the sense of exhortation and teaching is not the supernatural gift referenced in Scripture, where prophets received and proclaimed new revelations from God (cessationist perspective).*
  • Bruce Yocum, “Surviving a Tsunami” (Servants of Jesus Community, August 2, 2015) – Within the first minute, Yocum claims to have been receiving ‘prophecies’ longer than Jeremiah.*
  • Nathan Busenitz (Calvinist professor of theology at The Master’s University), “A Word from the Lord? Evaluating the Modern Gift of Prophesy” (Grace to You, November 10, 2013) – Video with history of Pentecostal and Charismatic movement and biblical analysis. (A text version of the presentation may be accessed here.)*
  • John MacArthur (Calvinist evangelical pastor and theologian), “Does God Still Give Revelation? [Video Series] Part 1 [of 6]” (Blaze25z, February 1, 2008) – Despite cessationist assumptions and misunderstandings of Catholicism, raises very important questions for evaluating contemporary Charismatic claims.*
  • John MacArthur, “Is God Still Sending Prophets?” (Doctrines of Grace, August 31, 2017) – Video.*

* Reader discretion advised: The linked articles above have been selected because of positive insights they contain. Some of them, however, contain various material that certain viewers may find offensive. Some are by traditional Catholics whose perspective on certain issues may offend other Catholics. Others are by Protestants whose erroneous characterizations of Catholic practices may offend many Catholics, and whose ‘Cessationist’ belief that miraculous gifts ceased after the apostolic age will be found objectionable by most Catholics. The inclusion of perspectives of these authors on the charismatic movement should not be construed as support for all their views on other matters. Still other books are by non-academic authors whose focus on personal experiences and speculations may be off-putting to certain readers, just as others are by academic writers whose detached, clinical approaches may be off-putting to other readers. Yet all contain insights worthy of thoughtful consideration. Please consider with due discretion.
