Don’t you think that it’s possible that God could call prophets to declare His word and to reveal His will to the people of the world in our day, as he did in ancient times?

Why would He have to ????
Why wuld He want to ???
Why don’t you think that it’s possible that God could just declare His word and to reveal His will straight to the people of the world in our day, as he did in ancient times?
Intividually without a go between ???
The boy Samuel...
The Virgin Mary...
The shephard boy, David..
The fishy smelling Jonah ...
The Edenites, Adam and Eve...
The ship builder, Noah..
The Chaldean, Abram...
The Apostle Paul...
and so on...
Either Jesus told the truth when He said He would send the Holy Spirit, Third Person of the Trinity...
“But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; He will speak only what he hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come. He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you. All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will take from what is mine and make it known to you.” John 16:13-15
or He lied...
But Jesus is God and God does not lie...
God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should change his mind. Does He speak and then not act? Does He promise and not fulfill? Numbers 23:19
a faith and knowledge resting on the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time, Titus 1:2
And since the Jesus of the Christian Bible is Truth...
Jesus said to Normandy, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man or woman comes to the Father except by me.”
it must be the mormon jesus who has lied...
Because as a “(person) of the world in our day” I have no trouble hearing from God for myself...
Since God speaks straight to me, why would I need “prophets to declare His word and to reveal His will to” me ??
Someone with the “gift of prophecy” might say something that with CONFIRM to me somethiong that God has already told me but that is rare...
BTW That so called prophet of the mormon corporation hasnt said anything as yet ???
To “declare (the mormon god’s) word and to reveal (the mormon god’s) will to the mormon people of the mormon world in our day,” to what was it ??? 13 MILLION mormons, Monson must be going day and night...
He best get of his duff and start declaring and revealing...
The prophets in ancient times lived in caves alone listenng to God when they went writing down the oracles of God or declaring and revealing to the people...
and Monson better start going to the Kings and leaders of the world real quiock ..thats what the prophets of old did...
How about Obama ??? Has Monson been to the White House to say “Woe to you” even ONCE since Obama got “elected”
I mean other than the kiss up warm fuzzy visit with his supposed “genealogy”
Hmmmmmmmmmm ???
If a prophet is to declare and reveal, its a good thing we are not waiting around for Monson...
No, I do well believing Jesus Christ and not Joey Smith about prophecy...
God speaks to me directly and declares and reveals...
Does that make ME the prophet of the mormon corporation ???
As I’m sure God declares and reveals to all the Flying Inmans...
That would make us all prophets of the mormon corporation...
so, what do you want to know, kid ???
Awesome, nana!
