Prophesy Again
God’s commission to His end-time Church:
The commission God has given to His Church in this age may be beyond what our human minds can even fully comprehend at this time! The mystery of God has to be declared today. But this Work is also to teach all humanity that the mystery must be dispensed, or declared, to every person ever created. They must be taught not only the mystery but also to teach it. Why? Is it possible God will keep expanding His Family throughout the universe forever?
Declaring the Mystery—Again
When the Apostle John was imprisoned on the isle of Patmos, it was a very trying time. He was all alone as far as we know; all the other apostles had been killed! So you might think John would have been sad and discouraged—but that was not the case at all. It was under those conditions that John wrote the book of Revelation. It was there that John wrote about our commission to prophesy again.
Down through the centuries, people have talked about prophesying again and wondered about this commission discussed in Revelation 10:11. When you study what people thought it meant, you see how deeply confused they were. But here we are at the end of man’s rule on Earth, and God’s “little flock” understands for the first time ever what it means to prophesy again. We are not guessing—we know. God has given us abundant proof.
We have only a tiny span of time to deliver God’s message to all the world. In the process, we experience some serious trials. That is not uncommon for God’s people. At one time, Jeremiah was very troubled and bogged down by his trials. But he said, That truth was in my heart like fire in my bones, and I couldn’t let go (Jeremiah 20:9). That is the stage God wants us to reach: where His truth is like fire in our bones and nothing can put out the fire—nothing can stop us from delivering this message.
