would someone be kind enough to help me define the original meaning of "prophet" and "saints"
Ephesians 4:10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Joel 2:28 “And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.Your sons and daughters will prophesy,your old men will dream dreams,your young men will see visions. 29 Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
The offices of prophet and priest might be combined in one person (John 11:49-52).(Pradis)
Preacher. One who heralds or proclaims, usually by delivering a discourse on a text of Scripture. Noah is referred to as "a preacher of righteousness" (2 Peter 2:5). Since the completion of the Bible, preaching has come to mean the exposition of the Word of God to believers or the declaration of the gospel message to unbelievers.(Pradis)
am I confusing pastor, prophetess, & saint ?
