Worth reading, shared with me so I am passing along to share here.rdg_____WHO IS the GREATEST PROPHET?- S. HillWould that be Ezekiel due to the intensity of his visions? Wouldthat be Isaiah due to the accuracy of his revelation of Jesus?Would that be Daniel due to his wisdom and ability to interpretdreams that kept him at the power centers of two world empires?Would that be Enoch who had such a powerful encounter withGod that he literally was not here anymore?According to Jesus the greatest prophet was John the Baptist whocame preaching "repentance for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand".So far as we know John never had a vision, dream or angelicencounter. Yet Jesus called him the greatest prophet!How many prophets do you know who are preaching repentance?It is difficult for them to preach repentance from the practice ofcasual divorce and remarriage since such would close "ministrydoors" to them and offend folks who pay for their conferences andbuy their books. But Jesus did so in Matthew 19:9!It is difficult for them to preach repentance from selling the gospeland making merchandise of the people of God since most haveembraced the same values. But in Matthew 10:8 Jesuscommanded us to freely give as we have freely received. InII Corinthians 11:5- 21 Paul said that the difference between thetrue and the false was not in message, anointing or gifting but inhow they related to the people and money!It is difficult to for them to preach repentance from selfpromotion, the love of position and title since most haveembraced celebrity status but Jesus did so in Matthew 23:1- 12.It is difficult for them to preach repentance from seeking specialexperiences and angelic encounters since those experiences aretheir tickets to "prophetic" status in a world that valuesexperiences above obedience. But Paul did so in Colossians2:18- 19.You cannot preach repentance from inside the camp! You supportthe camp. You can only preach repentance from outside. Thecourt prophets support the court. The prophets from the wildernessare free to preach repentance. That is why Hebrew 13:13 calls usto follow Jesus outside the camp.Jesus said that "the pure in heart shall see God".The result of true repentance should be a pure heart to see God.Once you see God the claims for revelation from the prophets willliterally be seen in a different light. Once you see God all dreams,visions and words will take their proper place. That some talkabout third heaven experiences as casually as a trip to Pizza Hutand claim to be able to teach others how to have them, shows thatthey have never been farther than their own imaginations.Maybe the fascination of the general church world with thesupernatural experiences, dreams, revelations is simply becausefew of them have ever seen God? Maybe we put prophets in awrong place because we do not have God in the right place?Maybe we would be less fascinated with "supernatural experiences"if we understood the vision of God that Jesus presented to us?Yes, He came to show us the Father but He also said that if weserved the least, we served Him.He placed the face of God on every suffering child.The pure in heart will see God and when they do the wholereligious game of status, money, recognition, book sales andnumbers will fade away. They will see God and they will seeHis face as the face of human need and they will serve.Jesus is clearly, as far as East is from West, the greatest Prophet!Hear Him!
