Prophecy: yes or no?

Praise the Lord EVERYBODY!

     You know, God is so GOOD!  I awoke this morning to a
GREAT BIG helping of HUMBLE PIE (not the rock group).
     Strangely enough, the way the Lord fixes it, it really
isn't that bad!
     As is my habit, I did some further checking on the
statement below and it is WRONG.  Although it has merit
when put in the proper perspective as it stands it is
WRONG.  I have to go now but couldn't let this go without
"rebuking" myself.

God is SOO good!  As you can see he had His servant that
was 
procceding in the wrong spirit label this as "not a
revelation" therefore allowing ME do a double take on my
motives and to use this as a means to strip away my PRIDE,
yes pride in what HE has so graciously GIVEN me.  I would
proceed as a "teacher" and God would have US learn
together.

What I stated isn't.  I will try to be more "cautious" in
the future.

The answer is indeed in the difference between the "elect"
and the "saints" but it is not what "I" stated above. 

God has been gracious enough to give me the real proof. 
The revelation is correct but I proceeded from there in my
own "wisdom" which is the sin of pride.  I repent of this.

The errors of the servants CANNOT change this!

"BTW, Bro. Blume, just to set the tone,"

Here again God has preserved His servant.  This is not the
tone that I meant to set, but GLORY AND HONOR unto the KING

of eternity, this is the TONE He wants!

Satan meant it for evil, God turned it to His honor!
