Does God Still Speak Through Prophets?

In this episode, Bryan, Bo and KD talk about how the Mormon church claims to have prophets who speak authoritatively for God. But is that really a thing anymore? If not, how do we hear from God? This podcast explores the answer to that question. They discuss the role of the Holy Spirit in the Old and New Testaments, the concept of worthiness in Mormonism, and the differences between capital P prophets and lowercase p prophets. They emphasize that every believer now has the Holy Spirit and that the Bible is God's authoritative Word. They also talk about the closed canon and the importance of testing everything against God's Word.

Takeaways:

  • There are two different types of prophets: a capital “P” prophet who speaks authoritatively for God, and a lowercase “p” prophet who speaks what God has already spoken.
  • The canon of Scripture is closed, meaning that God is not going to speak authoritatively through prophets anymore.
  • The Bible is God's authoritative word and does not need to be supplemented with new revelation from prophets.
  • The gift of prophecy in the local church is about reminding people of what God has already spoken, not bringing new revelation.
  • Believers should test everything against God's Word and hold on to what is good.
