Some people say I cannot be a prophet of God.
Walked in the commandments of God
Some of these people refer to a lack of walking in the commandments of God and therefore think that I cannot call myself a prophet of God.
Let me remind you that God calls human beings who are not perfect and make mistakes. Look at Jonah, King Saul, Solomon, Samson and even though some do not consider Balaam a prophet of God but a diviner, God did talk to him.
So these discussions of that I have not walked well enough in the commandments of God is likely said by self righteous hypocrites who don't know God. We are all human beings.
No prophets in the new testament era
Some people claim that I cannot be a prophet of God because there are no prophets during the new testament era.
But the new testament is full of prophets. For example look at John the Baptist, Agabus, the daughers of Philip the evangelist, Paul and prophets in Acts 13:1.
(Acts 13:1 [KJV]) Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
