Can the Gift of Prophecy Be Fallible?

Every year we hear of numerous prophecies by people who call themselves "prophets" or "prophetesses," yet these prophetic words do not come true. While the Bible has clear definitions for true and false prophets, many charismatics argue that there is such a thing as "fallible prophecy" in which supposed words from the Lord were mistaken by the prophet. What should we make of this? In this episode, Costi Hinn breaks down the true gift of prophecy and the office of prophet, while laying out 5 dangers with fallible prophecy from Dr. Nathan Busenitz.
