Conclusion: The Fallible Prophets of New Calvinism

In Chapter II we explore the core exegetical fallacies found within the theology of “fallible prophecy.” Despite the clear and cogent descriptions of prophecy found within the Old and New Testament Scriptures, the advocates of fallible prophecy seek to redefine prophecy in the New Testament era by means of profane (secular) Greek definitions. This is a curious tactic, especially since the word prophet (H. nabiy, G. prophetes) is not lacking in scriptural uses and examples. The danger of utilizing secular thinking when defining scriptural terms should be self evident to most; however many today are being drawn into such thinking. This chapter more deeply explores the dangers of redacting biblical word meanings with worldly thinking.
