Repeated false warnings are nothing more than lies, and result in faithlesness. The "prophet-in-training" theory is not scriptural, and merely false prophets to continue their foothold in the church. When God speaks to someone, it doesn't take 15 to 20 years for the prophet to 'get it right'. If the quake doesn't happen, then this man is a false prophet. The scriptures are very clear in warning us about false prophets.
I would love to have such a tidy reality as you seem to.
Doesn't fit with Scripture or the facts, from my perspective.
Enjoy it as long as you can.
There are plenty of mysteries, imho.
There's always plenty EXCUSE for faithlessness.
I don't think you have distinguished that often between authentic and false prophets. Even with beginner's there tends to be a different spirit that's fairly detectable if one has sensitivity and discernment--even in writings.
But, if you wish to blackwash one and all who fail to meet your seemingly overly narrow and rigid criteria . . . or if you prefer to wish throwing the baby out with the bath, I'm sure you will.
I have 0.00% doubt that God will have many surprises for all of us in coming months. And, I have no doubt that at some point, He will clear up this muddle-headed prophetic word stuff. I don't understand why He allows all such without fixing it sooner. But I trust that He does all things well.
I know that most of the prophetic people I know try as earnestly as they know to hear accurately from God and relate precisely and only what they've heard. They are not in the least motivated by any contrary heart or spirit motivation. That was clearly evident in this narrative of two dreams. I think most people full of the Love and Word of The Lord can see that.
BTW, how often do you personally participate in applying I or 14 in your local congregation regarding such matters?
And, how many have you stoned to death because they didn't meet your criteria?
