What could it mean to be “well-spoken of”?


Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.

Luke 6:26

Standout saying in today’s reading

The real prophets get persecuted and killed. The rest get acclaimed by the community – all men, not every individual.

Where is the prophet since John the Baptist?

If you do not know the answer to that question you are likely to be in the snare of a false prophet, not necessarily someone calling himself “prophet” but an authority figure.
