What does it mean to prophecy according to the proportion of faith?

Answered in 1 source

Prophecy according to the proportion of faith means that prophetic utterances must align with established biblical truths and prior revelations.

To prophesy according to the proportion of faith, as indicated in Romans 12:6, involves a responsibility to ensure that any prophetic message is consistent with the established truth of Scripture. The term 'proportion of faith' denotes that the believer's faith serves as a standard against which the validity of their prophetic insight must be measured. Therefore, this principle calls for prophets to be rooted in Scripture and to ensure that their messages do not contradict or deviate from the core teachings and revelations of the faith historically upheld by the church.
