I received email yesterday from a man who said I am the only person doing the type of work I am doing in the church ... apostle/prophet.
If so, this should not be.
Ephesians 4 ... After Jesus arose (after the crucifixion & resurrection) ...
HE gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

Jesus gave some apostles (plural ... more than one); and some prophets (plural ... more than one).
There have to be others on this earth doing what I do as apostle and prophet.
I had to depend on God to teach me what to do.
Many examples of the work of prophet in both Old and New Testaments.
The churches today kill prophets and hate prophets, for their sins are revealed by prophets.
God tries to show individuals their sins but they turn away quickly from God.
So God sends HIS prophets with HIS word.
The church people try to kill the prophet sent to them today just as they did in time of Elijah and all the other prophets.
Jesus said:
Matthew 23:33-39
Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
For I say unto you, Ye shall not see ME henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
