Prophets and Prophecy - Discernment for Today

Does God still speak through prophets — or did that end with the completion of the Bible?

What is a prophet, and does prophecy continue today? How should we respond if someone claims to have a message from God, and how do we discern what is truly from Him?

In this message, we examine the Biblical definition and purpose of prophecy, consider the ministry of the prophet in Ephesians 4 and the gift of prophecy in 1 Corinthians 14, and explore how believers are called to test and discern spiritual claims carefully and Scripturally.

Blood in the Bible

Explore how blood first came through the fall and became part of human nature, carrying corruption and defilement. “Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Corinthians 15:50), showing that blood is temporary and cannot enter the immortal state God has prepared. Yet, God allowed blood to serve a purpose in His redemptive plan — Jesus’ blood atones for the soul — while the prophets looked forward to a time when God would “cleanse their blood that [He] has not cleansed” (Joel 3:21). This points to a future hope when the fallen nature is washed away and blood itself is removed, preparing the body to receive immortality and the fulness of God.
