This book, "The Office of the Prophet," by Apostle Leslie D. Richardson, is an inspired document in due season. The timing of such a treatise is immeasurable in its importance to the Body of Christ. The information provided is for "such a time as this," to help all of us to be better prepared for the soon coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for His church.Since the end times speak to us of an increase in the number of "false" prophets, it is incumbent upon us to "know and recognize" the true prophets of God. The information presented in the book does an excellent job of enabling us to ascertain truths on this subject. The author is to be commended for his research and commitment. I highly recommend this book for your prayerful consideration. I know the author to be a truly dedicated and sincere man of God.It has certainly been both a pleasure and privilege to have mentored the author of this great work. I am grateful to God for whatever degree of influence I may have had on his life and his spiritual development. To God be the glory May God continue to bless and prosper him in all of his endeavors.In his service to the Body of Christ, Bishop Earl O.
