Prophets intercede on behalf of others and stand in the gaps and act in the power of the Spirit...

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,

because he has anointed me

to proclaim good news to the poor.

He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives

and recovering of sight to the blind,

to set at liberty those who are oppressed,

to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

Thank God for voices like Brueggeman. I guarantee the Fundamentalist/Evangelical faction dismisses himas they do all Christian "scholars"
