A Call to Prophetic Responsibility

A Call to Prophetic Responsibility

by Chip Brogden

In the wake of any catastrophe people will often turn to the Church, and to the prophetic community in particular, to give some kind of context and perspective for the event. Unfortunately, along with a genuine expression of God’s heart during times of calamity, there will always be a relative number of “prophetic opportunists” who will use the occasion to establish themselves as God’s spokesperson.

I first published this article the day after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. I'm sharing it with you again today because I still see some of the same attitude cropping up amongst "prophetic" people and the people who listen to them and forward their messages.

Of course, some will disagree and argue against what I'm saying (that's nothing new), but I encourage you to read this, pray about it, and come to your own conclusions.
