What does the Bible say about being a prophet?

Answered in 1 source

A prophet is one ordained by God to speak His words and reveal His truth, as seen in Luke 1:76-79.

A prophet, according to biblical understanding, is someone appointed by God to proclaim His message. Luke 1:76 describes John the Baptist as 'the prophet of the highest,' indicating his role in preparing the way for the Lord. Prophets relay God's messages, and true prophets are those who align with the testimony of Jesus. In this regard, testing prophets to ensure they do not contradict God's revealed word is vital, reflecting the need for discernment among believers.
