ALSO Q. How does Hebrews 1:1-2 come into play in this discussion
AI REPLIES:
A prophet is an individual who is believed to have a special connection with the divine and is chosen by God to deliver messages or revelations on His behalf. In general, prophets are considered spiritual guides and spokespersons for God, communicating His will and sharing insights into the future or matters of spiritual importance.
In the context of Christianity, a Christian prophet is someone who receives divine messages, visions, or insights through the Holy Spirit and shares them with the Christian community.
They serve as spiritual leaders and provide guidance, encouragement, correction, and edification to believers. Christian prophets are seen as continuing the prophetic tradition established in the Old Testament.
The primary difference between Old Testament prophets and New Testament prophets lies in the coming of Jesus Christ. In the Old Testament, prophets foretold the coming of the Messiah and conveyed God’s messages to the people. They often spoke about the future and the promise of a Savior.
However, with the arrival of Jesus in the New Testament, the role of the prophet shifted. Jesus became the fulfillment of the prophecies and the ultimate revelation of God to humanity. The New Testament prophets primarily focused on proclaiming the message of salvation through Jesus Christ and building up the early Christian communities.
Isaiah 11:2-3 describes the moral character and the qualities that would be present in the coming Messiah, who is Jesus. It states:
“And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears.”
This passage highlights the attributes that Jesus possessed as the Messiah. It speaks of His wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge, and reverence for God. These qualities align with the characteristics of a true prophet.
Regarding Hebrews 1:1-2, it states:
“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds.”
Hebrews emphasizes that God spoke to the people of the Old Testament through the prophets but, in the last days, He has spoken to us through His Son, Jesus Christ. This passage highlights the superiority of Jesus as the ultimate revelation of God. While the prophets in the Old Testament conveyed God’s messages, Jesus is the final and complete expression of God’s will and purpose.
In summary, the role of a prophet in Christianity involves receiving divine messages through the Holy Spirit and sharing them with the community.
The distinction between Old Testament prophets and New Testament prophets lies in the fulfillment of the prophecies through Jesus Christ. Jesus displayed the moral character of a true prophet, and Hebrews 1:1-2 emphasizes the superiority of Jesus as the ultimate revelation of God.
John 16:13, as recorded in the King James Version, states:
“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.”
This verse is part of Jesus’ teachings to His disciples before His crucifixion. In this passage, Jesus is referring to the coming of the Holy Spirit, who would guide the disciples and future believers into all truth. The role of the Holy Spirit in guiding believers into truth is significant for understanding the connection between Old Testament prophets, Jesus, and the New Testament concept of the prophetic office.
In the Old Testament, the prophets were chosen and anointed by God to speak His words and reveal His will to the people. They relied on the inspiration of the Holy Spirit to deliver their messages. However, their experiences with the Holy Spirit were often temporary and specific to the messages they were conveying.
In contrast, Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would permanently indwell believers after His departure. The Holy Spirit’s role would be to guide them into all truth, to speak what He hears from God, and to reveal things to come. This means that the Holy Spirit’s guidance is not limited to specific individuals like the Old Testament prophets but is available to all believers who have received the Holy Spirit.
In the context of the New Testament Church, the office of the prophet, as mentioned in Ephesians 4:11-13, is one of the five-fold ministry gifts given by Christ to the Church. The office of the prophet refers to individuals who have been called and anointed by God to function as prophetic voices within the Church. They receive revelations, insights, and messages from the Holy Spirit and share them with the community to edify, encourage, and exhort believers.
John 16:13, in this regard, emphasizes the ongoing role of the Holy Spirit in guiding believers into all truth, including those called to the prophetic office. The Holy Spirit continues to reveal things to come, inspire prophetic utterances, and provide spiritual insight to those who are receptive to His leading.
Therefore, John 16:13 highlights the abiding presence and work of the Holy Spirit, who empowers both individual believers and those functioning in the prophetic office to receive and communicate divine messages in alignment with the truth revealed through Jesus Christ.
TAVEAU ASKS AI: (She fills in some Gaps in her own teaching following)
In John 16:13, Jesus refers to the “Spirit of truth.” The Spirit of truth is the Holy Spirit, who is the third person of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and is sent by Jesus to dwell within believers.
In the context of John 16, Jesus is preparing His disciples for His departure and the coming of the Holy Spirit. He assures them that when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide them into all truth. The Holy Spirit’s role is to reveal and illuminate the truth of God to believers, convicting them of sin, guiding them in understanding God’s will, and empowering them to live according to His teachings.
The Spirit of truth originates from God the Father. In John 15:26, Jesus says, “But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me.” The Holy Spirit is sent by Jesus from the Father, and He testifies of Jesus and leads believers into the truth of who Jesus is and what He has accomplished.
The Spirit of truth is the source of divine revelation, guidance, and understanding for believers. Through the Holy Spirit, God communicates His truth and helps believers comprehend and apply it in their lives. The Spirit of truth works in believers’ hearts, transforming them and conforming them to the image of Christ.
In summary, the Spirit of truth in John 16:13 refers to the Holy Spirit, who proceeds from the Father and is sent by Jesus. The Holy Spirit is the source of divine revelation and guidance, leading believers into all truth and testifying of Jesus Christ. He is the divine presence within believers, empowering them to live according to God’s will and enabling them to understand and apply His truth.
TD USES HER OWN TEACHING TO FORM A CONCISE OVERVIEW OF “HOW” THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH COMES (HOLY SPIRIT)
SUBMITTED AS MY OPINION
BASIC POINT: either The Spirit of Truth actually HAS COME or else it HAS NOT
John 16:13 states that “when” the “Spirit of Truth comes,” it implies that there is an “if” and “when” aspect to the authentic arrival of the Spirit. This prophetic ministry point is crucial for the sake of the many seekers, potential seers, and those who are lost in today’s world.
The main focus here is to clarify and address Christian prophecy and similar spiritual faiths such as New Age, psychic abilities, clairvoyance, and more. It brings to light the question of the Bible’s validity and serves as a point of discussion and training.
It is vital to consider this point and its implications because on the final day, when it will be too late to make any changes, whatever the eternal God Almighty determines as His everlasting truth will hold significance. No one wants to be forever lost, so understanding and seeking the truth is of utmost importance.

Q. (in JOHN 16:13) “HOW DOES THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH ULTIMATELY COME?
SEER THEOLOGY CLEAR POINT“it’s (HE, HOLY SPIRIT) given free, undeserved, unearned, cannot be achieved, won or bought..as it’s FREE due to GOD’S GRACE via Jesus suffering and death on the rugged cruel cross but also His VICTORY over sin and death in RESURRECTION. Book of Acts was given also ‘freely, by miracles, supernatural similar (free, undeserved GIANT real grace)
A. After Jesus came in the New Testament, as believers accepted Him and became “born again” by acknowledging Him as their Savior, the “Spirit of Truth” came upon them according to the classic verse John 16:13. This Spirit of Truth came as a free, ongoing supernatural and invisible deposit into each and every true believer. It is important to note that this happened regardless of their level of knowledge, whether they were new, shallow, or had never been taught about it. God’s Holy Spirit of Truth was still given and abided within them..

HOW BEING BLESSED WITH THE FREE DEPOSIT OF GOD’S JOHN 16:13 “SPIRIT OF TRUTH” CAN ONGOING GIVE WISDOM AND REVELATION…THROUGH MUCH PRAYERS, SEEKING, BELIEVING AND ONGOING GRACE AND TRAINING
EPHESIANS 1: 17 APOSTLE PAUL AND PRAYER..
In Ephesians 1:17, the Apostle Paul prays for believers, asking that God would grant them the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. Here is the verse in the King James Version:
“That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him.”
The “spirit of wisdom and revelation” refers to the work of the Holy Spirit in enlightening believers and granting them a deep understanding of God and His ways. Here’s a breakdown of the key elements:
- Spirit: This refers to the Holy Spirit, who is the source of wisdom and revelation. The Holy Spirit dwells within believers and works in their hearts and minds to bring understanding and insight.
- Wisdom: Wisdom is the ability to discern and apply knowledge in a way that aligns with God’s truth and purposes. It involves having a deep understanding of God’s ways, His character, and His will.
- Revelation: Revelation refers to the unveiling or uncovering of truth that is not accessible through human understanding alone. It is divine insight and knowledge that comes directly from God. The Holy Spirit reveals spiritual truths and deepens believers’ understanding of God’s plans and purposes.
- Knowledge of Him: This refers to an intimate, experiential knowledge of God. It is more than just intellectual knowledge but involves a personal relationship and communion with Him. The spirit of wisdom and revelation helps believers grow in their knowledge and understanding of God, allowing them to experience Him more fully.
Paul’s prayer highlights the importance of seeking and receiving the Holy Spirit’s work of wisdom and revelation. It is through this spiritual insight and understanding that believers can have a deeper knowledge of God, His will, and His purposes. This knowledge enables them to live in alignment with God’s plans and walk in His wisdom.
FINALLY : TD ASKS AI
Q. How do the ministry offices (prophet, apostle, teachers, pastor, evangelist) “happen” (how do people get called to these) in the fellowships and churches?
AI ANSWERS (briefly)
These offices come into the Church through the calling and gifting of individuals by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit equips and anoints individuals to fulfill these roles for the edification, growth, and maturity of the Church. The recognition and affirmation of these offices often come through the discernment of leaders and the confirmation of the community of believers. The Church recognizes those whom the Holy Spirit has gifted and raised up for these specific roles and supports them in carrying out their responsibilities.
TD NOTES THIS as “One more facet of inviting Jesus into their hearts, then He and they have an ongoing ‘relationship” coupled with my Bible study, training, prayer and faith and respentance and pursuing God. Finally (for they have the John 16:13 spirit of truth abiding in them) HE CAN COMMUNICATE to them about HIMSELF, THEIR LIFE and their OWN CALL but then need other GOD “SENT” TRUE MINISTERS(2-3 at least) to cover them in prayer, to look as role models, learn to ask questions and to learn from .
IT’S ALL OPEN ENDED .so ONLY the most High GOD can fully show YOU about all of this!
