We are currently studying about the prophets. They are known most for there foretelling abilities, but at the time they spoke, they were currently aware of their "forthtelling" responsibilities.
We are to be involved in forthtelling. We are to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ. Modern-day prophets may also be involved in exposing the sinfulness of society.
I have been preaching through the book of Isaiah (interspersed with messages on other chapters of Schripture) over the last few years. It is amazing, at times, how much the discription of their situation parallels our situation today.
Much of Old Testament prophecy has been fulfilled, but not all of it. It was predicted that Jesus (the Messiah) would come the first time. It is also predicted that He will come again. That has not happened yet. Any man that has this hope within him purifies himseld.
We should let prophecy do that purifying work in our lives.
