The Biblical Prophet
The Bible has laid out clearly the role of the Prophet. The Bible gives us the command to "try the spirits". And the Bible should be our only and final authority for recognizing true prophets and rejecting false prophets.
We will look at the clear picture and will be able to discern truth from error in this present age of lies and blasphemy.

No one preached "repent and believe the Gospel" in the Old Testament. The Gospel was a message for that age. Yes, it was a message about a Messiah to come. Yes, the blood was symbolic... much like baptism, today.
My point was that the Gospel (message) preached was not the same and they did not hear, preach or believe the same thing you and I believe hear, preach and believe, today. (continued)
To your point, could you show me where the Scripture ever says Abel knew what you credit him with? continued
There is nothing there about how Jesus died, was buried & was risen again. It's simply a matter of believing that blood covers sin and Messiah would come & provide that blood. continued
Now, if the covenant (and Gospel of blood covenant) that Abel believed was the same as the new covenant (and Gospel of Grace) that our age hears, believes and preaches... how can it be DIFFERENT?
The Scripture is clear but lazy, unlearned College graduates in the pulpits blur the truth & confuse with their "tradition".
