Prophecy

This basic course on prophecy is very important for the believer. In a general sense it refers to proclaiming and thus to preaching. But technically a prophet was not only able to proclaim God’s message but he was able to predict the future.

Prophecy is a distinct and unique feature of revelation wholly foreign to human ability. It amounts to history being prewritten, therefore must prove a great phenomenon. Its fulfillment in the past is unquestionable, standing as indisputable evidence for inspiration.

For an extensive treatment of this doctrine we recommend Chafer’s eight volume Systematic Theology.
