Are you a prophet then consider this?
True prophets preach the
One true God and Jesus himself as that one true God in person. Immanuel
God with us. The Lord God in creation, the Son in redemption and The
Holy Ghost coming to us in salvation. One God in three offices.
For too long the church has propagated a Greko-Roman view of God that
did not originate with the prophets of old nor the apostles. The God of
the Jew and Christian is One. The word that was with him was his own
voice (Logos) and never another person, speaking on his behalf as many
would have us believe.
The issue is paramount, for he either propagates error or reveals
truth, which is Jesus himself. Consider the prophet Isaiah who saw this
one God and his message.
I am the Lord and there is no other there is no God beside me (Isaiah 45:5).
There is no God beside me (v6) I am the Lord and there is no other.
I am the first and I am the last besides me there is no God (Isaiah 44:6).
For I am the Lord your God the Holy One of Israel your Saviour (Isaiah 43:3).
I am and there is no one else beside me (Isaiah 47:8).
Then to cap it all he tells us that those (of us) who know him will
be the witnesses to this one God, “Ye are my witnesses saith the Lord
and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me and
understand that I am he, before me there was no God formed netiher shall
there be after me” (Isaiah 43:10).
A true prophet therefore is a witness to the truth which is Jesus is God!
