But remember, NT prophets are a bit different, and not subject to the same requirements of perfection as the OT order.

Agabus wasn’t 100%, and the scripture notes him as a prophet.

It’s a different deal with us now, the Holy Spirit being available to us all. We are all commanded to judge the rhema word for ourselves, we all have an anointing from the Holy One, there is no mediator between the individual believer and God, and we can all prophecy.
