The Primary Call of a Prophet

From David Korakus

"However, the primary call of the "prophet" has always been to proclaim REPENTANCE in a spirit of concerning love when man corrupts what God has ordained. It seems that the church is content and comfortable with the gift of "prophesy", but has an aversion and resistance to the words of the "prophet." Those who are naming or calling their ministries "prophetic," but refuse to confront sin and "religion" in the church are the creations of man ... for they seek man's approval. Prophetic ministry is one of the few things in life that we must "have both ways." We readily take the message that edifies and encourages. However, we also must take the message that confronts and calls for "personal" repentance."
