Luke:7:26
rwp@Luke:7:26 @{A prophet?} (\prophtn;\). A real prophet will always get a hearing if he has a message from God. He is a for-speaker, forth-teller (\pro-phts\). He may or may not be a fore-teller. The main thing is for the prophet to have a message from God which he is willing to tell at whatever cost to himself. The word of God came to John in the wilderness of Judea (Luke:3:2|). That made him a prophet. There is a prophetic element in every real preacher of the Gospel. Real prophets become leaders and moulders of men.
