The OT is pretty clear that prophets are great. I think that notion is very well accepted by Christians.
I’ve also seen a fairly common view that God stopped using prophets.
Amos 3:7 strongly suggests that they are an on going thing.
Matthew 7:15 is a warning about false prophets. A very odd warning if the last real prophet was long dead and none would again be called. “There will never be another prophet” would seem a more effective statement.
Acts 11: 27-28 and acts 13:1 we have prophets after the death of the Savior. So when did prophets cease to a way God speaks to man?
Why did this change?
Where does the Bible tell us this?
