The Goal of Prophecy message

Sample message in part from  Hope Givers Cowboy Church

Can you recognize the truth or a lie from a distance.

I was driving down the road the other day and I happened to notice a gathering of horse trailers and it was in my view for a long enough period of time as I drove by that I noticed something's happening.  Obviously these people were preparing to go on a trail ride. It was a fairly cool morning and the scene that I saw a from a distance was petrifying  to me.  Those horses looked like a bunch of scared cats that were puffed up either ready to strike or flee.

There were two or three horses that seemed to have people around them trying to defuse what was happening. The sad thing was these people had already placed their children on top of these life time bombs.  This kind of thing only happens when ignorance abounds. 

I am not trying to be judgmental of the people, simply stating facts. The ignorance I am speaking of this is this.... They really don't know that they don't know. !!  and that has them and their children in harms way.  The reason that I could recognize that from a distance is because for my entire life I have been a student of animal behavior and I make a living by defusing the time bombs so that they can become useful willing companions. 

11 Timothy 2:15 says ...   Be diligent to present yourself a worker who does not need to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth.   

Last Sunday March  30th I answered 3 questions.

1. What is prophecy...

predictions of future by a prophet

 2, What is the goal of prophecy....

The coming of the Messiah and the establishment of His kingdom in the last days  

 3. How does it concern us today.... It has been interrupted for a time by this dispensation of Grace . 

I Corinthians 13:8-10  Love never fails but whether there are prophesies they will fail whether there are tongues they will cease, whether there is knowledge it will vanish away.

 9) For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10) But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

 The letters from apostle Paul who was appointed by God to be a messenger of the mystery are all words inspired by God directly to us today. 

 Colossians 1:26 The mystery which has been hidden from all ages and from generations but now has been revealed to his saints.   

Grace to you,

Dennis
