Ancient Prophets God can Revoke The section on Mormon s Criteria of prophethood being slightly different from many Jews and Christians should be at the beginning of the apologists claims I think Jeff Lindsay on his site starts by clarifying supposed contradictions between accepted prophets and their prophecies that on the surface appear to contradict Moses criteria This sets the tone for the argument against the Independence Temple prophecy One of the arguments apologists frequently make is that God can command and God can revoke and so the Independence Temple prophecy was revoked There is also the argument of generation but that s a different matter 30 June 2005 17 49 UTC
