I am bothered with the rest of you when one bad apple spoils the bunch. However, there is still order that must be maintained in the kingdom. Even in heaven, order will be established. I am writing this to explain why we address men and women of G-d, OF THE CALLED, by titles. It is in response to a blog entitled:
"The TRUTH exposed about Prophet AlwaysGottaWord!"
Blogger:
Without calling names...what are your thoughts about all these so-called prophets and Prophetesses whose words have never came to pass, yet they are always saying they got a fresh word from heaven? I am curious; I was listening to an old tape of a prophet that shall remain nameless. They gave a word 7 years ago about something that was suppose to happen in less than 3 years and it has yet to come to pass. Did they just miss it or did they just flat out lie. Help me out. Let me know what the deal is.Why is everyone trying to get a title these days? It seems like everyone wants to be Bishop this, Prophet that, and so forth and so on. What is that all about?
My Response:
Concerning your blog I just wanted to respond to why do people have to have a title? Why call a doctor Dr., why call your mom, mother, why hold anyones honour at hand. It's simply for this, (I say this not because I hold a prophetic office. I am content with Sister Elias.) Title are held out of respect it keeps the proper perspective between individuals.
Example Mr./Mrs. or Sister Saved and Brother Live Holy is a respectable greeting. People can get comfortable at times and lose respect for an individual.
Title is out of respect and honour, I'll prove it, Go before the president of the United States and call him George, go before the Judge and call him by his first name and it might land you 30 days in the county.
It is not a title thing for me to call someone by a proper title it is about a respect thing.
Furthermore is helps to characterize the person, you know a prophet is a prophet without discern it because that is their title.
The main people that have problem addressing others; if you could take a look at their life they are not submitted to their spouse, their pastor, their bosses', etc. A humble person have no problem addressing others out of just common respect. I was raised to say, 'yes sir' and 'no sir'. Rather I liked the person or not; that is just something that has stuck with me as a child.
God knows all things, these people will not get away. Remember the servant that came to the feast illegally, the ruler order him to be set captive. Do not envy or worry about evildoers' or you may be entrap in the devices of the enemy; bitterness and strife.
I love to hear your response to this>>>Prophetess
I will go into details on the first part of this question later...
