Are Modern Day "Prophets" Reliable?

In today's world, identifying as a "prophet" can lead to power and profit. It is not uncommon to hear a preacher say, "I've got a word from the Lord for you!" as they appear to be more holy and have a greater connection to divine revelation than anyone else. The problem is, their word doesn't match God's word. Prophecy is trending as many seek revelation from God outside of His word. Schools of supernatural ministry tout programs that can teach you how to acquire and wield the gift of prophecy, and some people build entire ministries under the illusion that they hear from God better than you do. The question begs, what is biblical prophecy? Furthermore, can we depend on these modern day prophets? In this episode, Costi Hinn interviews Justin Peters on key truths about this important gift of the Spirit.
