Redeeming Prophecy

PROPHECY IS WIDELY PRACTISED

There are an estimated 600 million Charismatic & Pentecostal Christians in the world today and many regularly exercise prophecy, words of knowledge and words of wisdom.

PROPHECY IS POWERFUL

Many lives have been changed and many churches transformed through the gifts of revelation, including dreams and visions.

PROPHECY IS CONTROVERSIAL

Some argue that prophecy and other gifts of the Spirit are no longer operative and recent high-profile misguided 'prophecies' have brought the gift into disrepute.

How can we negotiate the confusion and conflicting views that surround the use of prophecy in the contemporary church?

REDEEMING PROPHECY evaluates prophecy today using the lens of Scripture and of church history. Informative and accessible, questions addressed include:

- How do we actually receive and communicate prophecy?

- How can we evaluate the content of a prophetic word?

- Can we distinguish between human and divine elements of a prophecy?

- What makes someone a false prophet?

- What safeguards and protocols should be in place?

- Is there an overlap between 'natural' intuition and prophecy?

- How can we evaluate political prophecies?
