YouTube Description
as posted by the channelI’m sorta putting my hand in the fire with these topics. But my love for God and people compels me to speak.
I love God. I love my country. I love (correct) prophecy. And I love truth. Many people can use current events to bolster their spiritual image. Sometimes you don't need the power of prophecy to foresee what's going to happen. If you make a prophecy about the election (or anything else with similar outcomes), it's a 50-50 chance that you are going to be right, and then take credit for it, solidifying the belief that you are indeed a prophet and people need to believe you. This is still prophecy darts, and it is rather silly to make a prediction like this, in my opinion. The only consequence, if you are right, doesn't really have anything to do with glorifying God but instead brings attention to the "prophet."
Even though I made this video before the events of July 13th, my point still stands: I'm not trying to "debunk" prophecy. A lot of times, prophecy is used to bring attention to God and spread the Gospel. My issue is whenever people misuse prophecy to bring attention to themselves and gain power. The question to ask: Who is this really glorifying?
