Thomas Cogdell - Prophetic Responsibility, Submission, and Freedom

In this teaching, Thomas Cogdell continues the Boundaries of Reconciliation series with the 3rd teaching. One objection to the True & False Unity teaching (#1 in the series) could be - “But I am a prophet, I speak truth to power, even if it means calling out those who are following a ‘false gospel.’”

This teaching looks at the responsibility of a prophet, from the perspective of both the Old and New Testaments. It addresses the relationship of the prophet to other leaders in the body of Christ, and how the prophet should respond when they malfunction and don’t respond properly to the word being brought. (Of course, the prophet can also malfunction!)

This teaching was given at Christ the Reconciler during the retreat on 28 January 2023.
