Recently I posted two videos, one of a black prophet and the other of a white one.  I do not condone the words of either one and I will explain why.

First, the black prophet, James David Manning, very articulately describes the potential of terrible times for these United States.  But, he does so while he castigates and reviles President Barack Obama.  I do not agree with Obama’s plans, goals, and methods, but I am not at liberty to rail against him.  Recall the following passage from the Book of Acts:

And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day. And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth. Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite you, you whited wall: for do you sit to judge me after the law, and command me to be smitten contrary to the law? And they that stood by said, Do you revile God’s high priest? Then said Paul, I knew not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people. (Acts 23:1-5 KJ2000)

So, I do not speak evil of President Obama.  Instead, I pray that he will repent of his sins and begin to serve the one true LORD of heaven and earth, Jesus Christ.

The second video I posted is of John Paul Jackson who there predicts certain events he believes will occur over the next ten years.   First, it takes no seer of the future to make those predictions.  We already see the warning signs of those terrible events.  Should things remain the same, that is, if the people of this nation do not repent of gross wickedness, then God’s Word confirms that those things will happen to us.  Second, this prophet is trying to sell his “prophetic video” on this program.  This is buying and selling the spiritual and we have been taught by God not to do that.  Please read “Buy the Truth and Sell it Not.”  Third, I do not believe that a true prophet typically “predicts” the future.  The future is hidden from us and God intends it to stay that way as a rule.  The role of the prophet is to speak forth the Word of God according to the following Scripture:

My heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his holiness. For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourns; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their might is not right. For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, says the LORD. Therefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall in it: for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their punishment, says the LORD. And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to err. I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none does return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and its inhabitants as Gomorrah. Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the poisonous water: for from the prophets of Jerusalem has profaneness gone forth into all the land. Thus says the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you worthless: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD. They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD has said, You shall have peace; and they say unto everyone that walks after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you. For who has stood in the counsel of the LORD, and has perceived and heard his word? who has marked his word, and heard it? Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD has gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked. The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he has executed, and till he has performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days you shall consider it perfectly. I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings. Am I a God at hand, says the LORD, and not a God afar off? Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? says the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? says the LORD. I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed. How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart; Who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal. The prophet that has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? says the LORD. Is not my word like a fire? says the LORD; and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces? Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, that steal my words everyone from his neighbor. Behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He says. Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, says the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their recklessness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, says the LORD. (Jeremiah 23:9-32 KJ2000)

Yes, “The prophet that has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? says the LORD. Is not my word like a fire? says the LORD; and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?”  Let the fire of God’s word consume your dross, and let the hammer of his word mold your silver into His image!  Fear not the word of the prophet that prophesies destruction for the only destruction that God cares about is the destruction of your own bestial land, your flesh, so that He will rule in the throne of your life.
