Does a 'true prophet' not have to meet the guidelines set by God, Himself, in Numbers 12:6?

We hear a lot of people claiming to be 'prophets', in various religious groups. Are they really prophets?





Is our understanding of the scriptures correct, when interpreting 'nothing new' being revealed unto us by prophets? What about the 'lost Word of God'? What about possible 'errors' in the scripture? Can God not use a prophet to correct these things?Does a 'true prophet' not have to meet the guidelines set by God, Himself, in Numbers 12:6?
If God is big enough and powerful enough to create this would out of nothing, and to create life from nothing...and He is able to communicate to man, and have them write down His words....





Don't you think He is also big enough and powerful enough to make sure parts of His Word does not get lost. And don't you think He would make sure we kept it right?





God has promised to preserve His Word from generation to generation, and that not one single dot or line would pass from His Word until all things be fulfilled.





This is a promise to us that God's Word would always be here for us.





Only the KJV Bible uses the manuscripts that have been preserved all down through the ages. All of the newer versions use manuscripts that had been lost or hidden for many generations, or use text that was rewritten by men in later years.





But, we do still have God's preserved word in the KJV. And we do not need so called prophets to get things right.





These so called prophets are not prophets from God. The bible says that if a prophet says anything that does not come about exactly as they say, they are not prophets from God.





Every single modern day prophet has prophesied things that did not come true.Does a 'true prophet' not have to meet the guidelines set by God, Himself, in Numbers 12:6?

Distinguishing the True From the False.


In some cases, such as that of Moses, Elijah, Elisha, and Jesus, God’s prophets performed miraculous works that attested to the genuineness of their message and office. Not all, however, are recorded as performing such powerful works. The three essentials for establishing the credentials of a true prophet, as given through Moses, were: The true prophet would speak in Jehovah’s name; the things foretold would come to pass (De 18:20-22); and his prophesying must promote true worship, being in harmony with God’s revealed word and commandments (De 13:1-4). The last requirement was probably the most vital and decisive, for an individual might hypocritically use God’s name, and by coincidence, his prediction might see fulfillment. But the true prophet was not solely or even primarily a prognosticator, as has been shown. Rather, he was an advocate of righteousness, and his message dealt primarily with moral standards and their application. He expressed God’s mind on matters. (Isa 1:10-20; Mic 6:1-12) Hence, it was not necessary to wait perhaps for years or generations to determine whether the prophet was true or false by fulfillment of a prediction. If his message contradicted God’s revealed will and standards, he was false. Thus, a prophet who foretold peace for Israel or Judah, at a time when the people were engaging in disobedience to God’s Word and Law, of necessity was false.—Jer 6:13, 14; 14:11-16.





Jesus’ later warning concerning false prophets paralleled that of Moses. Though using his name, and giving “signs and wonders to lead astray,” their fruits would prove them “workers of lawlessness.”—Mt 7:15-23; Mr 13:21-23; compare 2Pe 2:1-3; 1Jo 4:1-3.


The true prophet never foretold simply to satisfy human curiosity. Every prediction related to God’s will, purpose, standards, or judgment. (1Ki 11:29-39; Isa 7:3-9) Often the future events foretold were the consequence of existing conditions; as the people sowed, so they would reap. The false prophets lulled the people and their leaders with soothing assurances that, despite their unrighteous course, God was still with them to protect and prosper them. (Jer 23:16-20; 28:1-14; Eze 13:1-16; compare Lu 6:26.) They imitated the true prophets, employing symbolic language and actions. (1Ki 22:11; Jer 28:10-14) While some were outright frauds, many were evidently prophets who became delinquent or apostate. (Compare 1Ki 18:19; 22:5-7; Isa 28:7; Jer 23:11-15.) Some were women, false prophetesses. (Eze 13:17-23; compare Re 2:20.) A “spirit of uncleanness” replaced God’s spirit. All such false prophets were to be put to death.—Zec 13:2, 3; De 13:5.





As to those measuring up to the divine standards, the fulfillment of certain “short-range” prophecies, some being accomplished in just a day or a year, gave basis for confidence that their prophecies relating to a more distant future would also see fulfillment.—1Ki 13:1-5; 14:12, 17; 2Ki 4:16, 17; 7:1, 2, 16-20.
