I personally continue to see a small number of new members describe themselves as Apostle or Prophet or Prophetess of God . It disturbs me.
It is wiser NOT to describe oneself specifically as such as it will NOT usually attract friends because it really speaks of self elevation / self promotion / pride / lack of humility and is most likely false.
I personally do NOT send a friend invite to those who so describe themselves.
There have been occasions in my walk with the Lord over 60 years, when I have operated under the Holy Spirit's Gifting in prophecy, WHEN HE VERY CLEARLY WISHES to do so.
It is a humbling experience and I would not give myself the title or allow others to describe me as 'prophet ' ( not a problem to date as it has never knowingly happened ).
I would only be thankful for the Lord to welcome me as servant, when I face him . That should be enough ! My statement above is just of my own personal choice and stand , and does not represent a condition of membership laid down by Lordsbook.com
Postscript " “We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty,
The One who is and who was and who is to come,
Because You have taken Your great power and reigned.
The nations were angry, and Your wrath has come,
And the time of the dead, that they should be judged,
And that You should reward YOUR SERVANTS the prophets and the saints,
And those who fear Your name, small and great,
And should destroy those who destroy the earth.” - Revelation 11 : 18
