The TRUTH book Volume 1 (PDF) - For My People Ministry

Chapter six - Vance Ferrell 229Ferrell says: (see Appendix K)“Please make copies of these eight pages and share them widely withthose who need them! It is too late in history to set aside the Bible andSpirit of Prophecy, and chase after every person who comes along,claiming to have special messages for us through dreams or visions. Wehave enough light in God’s Word to enable us to do our duty and prepareour lives to meet Jesus! The problem is that we are not daily reading inthe Inspired Writings!”Will There Be Another Prophet? by Vance Ferrell“There is no doubt that we live down at the close of time, and we needhelp guidance from the Lord. But we have the Spirit of Prophecy. A vastwealth of information is in those books, many of which few of us everread.“The truth is that we do not need any more prophetic guidance. Wealready have so much light which we do not use.“The truth is that we are not entitled to any more guidance. God hassaid that only those who use what they have, will receive more. When Hispeople do not obey His law, they will not have the guidance of Hisprophet (Lamentations 2:9; Ezekiel 7:26; 20:3, 12, 13-16; Jeremiah 26:4-6; Proverbs 29:18; Revelation 12:17). Our people in these last days arevery, very disobedient to God’s Word.“We are not told that there will be another genuine prophet after EllenWhite, and we are not told there will not. The possibility is not ruled out,but we are given little or no encouragement that it will happen.”http://www.ellenwhitedefend.com/Understanding-Gift/Another-Prophet.htmFactWe are alarmed to discover that Elder Ferrell states we do not need any moreprophetic guidance and are not entitled to any more guidance! How can he saythat? Should not that be God’s decision? The Bible verses that Elder Ferrellquotes are simply stating that there will always be those who will reject God’sprophets. The prophecies and messages are for those who will listen andaccept. According to the S.D.A. Bible Commentary on Lamentations 2:9, it is areference to the group of professionals who made up the prophetic class inJudah that were unfaithful to their calling. It does not include the faithfulprophets like Ezekiel and Daniel.Next Elder Ferrell states that we are not told there will be another genuineprophet and we are not told there will not be another but that we are given littleor no encouragement that it will happen. That idea is not only discouraging butcompletely contradicts Joel 2:28-29 and Acts 2:17-18 as well as the followingquote by Ellen White!God says:Testimonies for the Church, Vol. 5, p. 663The word of God is sufficient to enlighten the most beclouded mindand may be understood by those who have any desire to understand it.But notwithstanding all this, some who profess to make the word of Godtheir study are found living in direct opposition to its plainest teachings.
