Here is something we also may need to consider. The school was led by one with a profound prophetic gift (Joseph Smith). So before we could have a school of the prophets, one with this enhanced capacity may be needed first to lead it.
I really enjoy hearing Mike Bickle and Rick Joyner speak. But you will still find "wholes" in their messages. So while I really admire them for what they are doing, even they are not the types of prophets to lead what "we see" as a school of the prophets!
I like what those prophetic men are doing, but I still have my reservations in regards to them also. I have not gotten clear confirmation of the Spirit in regards to their messages. I like the messages, but I would not "hang my hat on them" so to speak.
Did JS, Jr. actually lead this school or schools or just guide it?
Was there not a "school of the prophets", a "school of apostles", a "school of elders", not to mention a regular school for children and a "seminary"?
At my friend's ordination (to elder) Sunday, Don M. stated he would rather have one with passion than 10 educated persons (in front of the MC president). I agree.
What needs to be a part of this school?!?
I think "The Royal Way" by Brother Andrew needs to be a clear part of this school with persons sent out on a mission, but they must learn to rely on the Spirit and God. Are you guys familiar with his story? This developed a passion for Christ and also a trust in the power of God so that Brother Andrew could pray..."You made blind eyes see; please make seeing eyes blind." in regards to smuggling Scriptures into Iron Curtain countries.
