The lady claims to have seen the Lord; that would make her an apostle.
If you cant apply Christ’s words to extra-biblical prophecies then those verses I cited are useless. Either we have been told all things by Him and his apostles or not.

Sola Sciptura doesn’t just apply to the Papists.

Ok, I see where you are coming from now and I tend to agree. I know my gut (Spirit?) feeling when reading it was that it was dangerous to take it at face value. The caution against false prophets in the last days would be the first caution.

I need to go re study the passage about sons prophesying in the last days.

All things sufficient to establish and maintain one’s relationship with God through Christ’s Blood walking in His Spirit.

“all things” can have layers of meaning.

I’d have thought that layers of meaning was something RC folks were extremely familiar with.

Sounds like, in this case, you’re trying to insist that it also includes the particular spin of each and every electron in each and every atom in each and eery material object in all creation.

And who should mary whom on what day in what place and when they should have marital relations for precisely how many minutes and microseconds long etc. etc. etc.

Sheesh.

Paul makes clear in I Cor 12-14 . . .outlining the proper functioning of a normal church meeting . . .

that there will be prophetic utterances and words of knowledge and words of wisdom.

Those are obviously not EnScripturated nor meant to be.

Sheesh what ignorance abounds about such issues.

>> Sola Sciptura doesn’t just apply to the Papists.<<

Remember that Sola Scriptura only means it must be proven or supported by scripture.

Acts 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

More study needed for me to come down on one side or the other.

WHAT ABSURD NONSENSE.

The woman at the well saw Jesus. She wasn't an Apostle.

The woman who touched His garment saw Him. She wasn't an Apostle.

The woman with the alabaster jar of perfume touched Him. She wasn't made an Apostle.

God calls WHOM HE WILL to be Apostles.

What an idiotic clueless idea that all who see Jesus become Apostles.

Truly the Vatican Alice In Wonderland School Of Theology, Reality Mangling, Chronic Professional Blaming, Wailing and Whining Cult has burped gaseous nonsense yet again!
