I believe that you are referring to the phrase from the Book of Revelations. He was not calling all of His servants prophets.
Rev 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
Eph 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
1Co 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. Yet you seem to have a problem with 1 Cor 14.
Contrary to your belief. I was not quoting that verse. I made reference to an audible voice of God that was spoken in the early 1980's while i was being ejected from a so called prayer meeting. The full quote is, "This is the way you have always treated My servants the prophets." He was speaking about the way they were treating me.
As for 1Cor 14:37 I am both a prophet and spiritual and do acknowledge that the writings of Paul are the commandments of the Lord Jesus Christ. Next time you have a pressing question do not cloak it with "BTW".
BTW questions do not demand an answer.

Paul mentions confusion in these verses. If one single man speaks to God in an unknown language and then turns around and that one man tells you what the conversation is about, how easy is it for that one man to lead a congregation astray?
Paul says that in order to edify the church
1 Cor. 14:13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in and unknown tongue pray the he may interpret.
He seemed to think the danger you warn of is to be prayed for.

Born again Christians are at war; they are battling spiritual forces!
I am a born again Christian. I am seated at the right hand of God in Christ Jesus waiting for My enemies to be made My foot stool.
The war is over We won.
