False prophets abound in America! Most of these false prophets and prophetesses have capitalized on the gift of the Word of knowledge. The gift of the Word of knowledge does not make one a prophet or prophetess.
Is Kim Clement a prophet or a false prophet?
I was at his meetings in Detroit.
He had contacted the pastor of the Church in the Dome saying that God had told Kim that Kim was to start a revival in the Detroit, Michigan area. The pastor was agreeable, so the meetings started. Local people plus people from other states arrived for this revival!
What happened? Kim Clement collected a lot of money! Did any kind of revival take place? NO! Was Kim Clement stoned as a false prophet? No! This is America, if we stoned every false prophet/prophetess, we wouldn't have any false prophets left! Smile.
Towards the end when Kim realized his prophecies were false, he quit showing-up for his own meetings. We would go to the meetings; the pastor would come out at the start of the meeting to inform thousands of eager unspiritually led people that again Kim Clement was not able to make his own meeting. Eventually, he quit coming. No revival, just a bunch of us confused, stupid, misled and exploited sheep!
Our son Greg at the age of about 13 had been saving his money to buy a Fender guitar. He gave the $65 he had saved to help with the coming revival. In a business situation, if money is given for something that never exists, legally shouldn't the money be given back? Did Kim Clement give back any of the money he collect to help with the coming revival? Right - NO! He is the typically money grubber. Lying is the way of a false prophet.
Kim collected lots of money, begging at every meeting. We were dumb enough to believe him! Did we receive value from the money???? He played the same so called prophetic songs from meeting to meeting. I have personally heard one of the same songs on his TV program. They are supposed to be prophetic songs. So, does that mean he should sing them year after year?
Kim claims to have prophesied 911 during a in Detroit. Did you see or hear the prophecy when it was on the web? It is very generic. It could be the description of ????? many different choices! I can't find it on the web. Why? Probably it wasn't making Kim any money! The prophecy can be bought; right it is not free, of course more money grubbing.
Others question Kim Clement's calling as a prophet:

Bob Jones
one of the Kansas City false prophets?
Is Bob Jones another false prophet? In a small meeting in Minneapolis, MN of maybe one hundred people, we were there, he said that within two years there would be a great revival meeting in Minneapolis' stadium. The stadium would be filled with thousands of young people seeking God. It never happened, nothing even remotely close happened. Bob Jones doesn't even have the gift of the Word of knowledge
Prophets are for today! False prophets are in the world today!
"And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:" Ephesians 4:11-12
During the time of Jeremiah, the king and most of the people listened to and believed the false prophets. It led to the fall of God's people.The devil has not changed his tactics!

PS. You may think giving names is not politically correct. You may be right. I want to be Biblically correct.
