Speaking in the Spirit: A Study of New Testament Prophecy
Ebook
What is the gift of prophecy? Does it continue today, or did it pass away with the apostles? What does it mean to speak in the Spirit? Few subjects are more contentious and more misunderstood in the church today. This book examines these questions by carefully studying Scripture and the works of the most prominent scholars. The conclusions have profound implications for Christian belief and behavior.
“This is a careful and painstaking study of prophecy, and
includes mainly New Testament prophecy. Wexler makes helpful use of
David Hill, Thomas Gillespie, and Wayne Grudem, and considers a
wide range of biblical texts. Prophecy, he rightly argues, may
include reflective Gospel-centered preaching, and is certainly not
confined to supposed spontaneous utterances. When it communicates
God’s authentic, living Word, this may be called prophecy.”
