Fine.

I am asserting that acting out New Testament, Holy Spirit gifting and ministry in an internet forum is inappropriate and immature at the very least.

The NT office of prophet (and role of the gift of prophesy) are for "the training of the saints in the work of ministry, to build up the body of Christ" Eph. 4:12.

If you have some scripture, doctrine, or tradition that says otherwise please share it with me.

Not a water contest I feel constrained to bother with.

I do confess to enjoying the fruit of such over the decade, plus, however . . . as evidenced by the many FREEPMAILS of folks who have expressed their thanks that I bothered in the . . . curious ways God has allowed and enabled me to bother with.

That kind of fruitfulness for my Lord is something I care about a lot.

It’s not a lasting matter of more significance than a gnat’s burp as to whether bystanders wish to throw rocks, cluck their tongues or otherwise cast aspersions at such efforts . . .

or not.

However, some perspectives can be quite amusing.
