In this episode of No Other Doctrine, Pastor Scott Thom tackles one of the most misunderstood areas of Scripture: prophecy. Rather than jumping straight to end-times predictions, Pastor Thom lays the groundwork first, walking through the historical-grammatical method for interpreting prophetic and symbolic language, and showing how Jesus Himself modeled sound, consistent interpretation in the Gospels. He explains the different ways God has spoken to His people throughout Scripture, from dreams and visions to types, symbols, and direct appearances, and how to test whether something claiming to be prophecy is genuinely from God. The episode closes with two powerful examples of dual prophecy, showing how God can speak a single word that finds fulfillment in two distinct, increasingly miraculous ways throughout redemptive history, culminating in Christ.
