DAILY IMMERSION IN THE PROPHETIC WORD Sunday | Mess. 05 – The Emergence of the Root of the Church’s Degradation in the Second Century

Thank God we are in the age of the prophetic word, in which everyone has the freedom to hear the living and instantaneous speaking of God. We do not need a priesthood to mediate our contact with God, but we receive His presence through His word. We are all priests! (1 Pe 2:9)
Only when the authority of the Word is recognized by the church does the power of the Spirit act to execute the will of God, for in this way Christ, the Head, governs the church. We must recognize the importance of the prophetic word! (Eph 2:22-23)
In the church, the most gifted members are to perfect the saints to build the Body of Christ, and are not to replace the role of lay people, such as clergy! We are not a church bound by the clerical system, but we are a living organism, living members of the Body of Christ, and the word supplies us with the circulation of life! (Eph 4:11-12)
“Whoever recognizes blindness and wants to be cured will see, but whoever thinks he sees is actually blind” (Daily Food, Book 2, Week 3, Sunday, page 56).
