- W2583769084 abstract "On almost every block of inner-city Johannesburg there is a poster advertising the wondrous capacities of a “Prophe prophets t, prophets ” one who is said to come from a distant region of ZimbabweZimbabwe or further afield. The phenomenon of prophetsprophets selling their services has spread rapidly in the post-apartheidpost-apartheid era; it has come alongside a resurgence of new evangelical and Pentecostalchurches Pentecostal prophetic movements in the city, while adherents to older Zionistchurches Zionist and Apostolicchurches Apostolic traditions persist in gathering on the mountainsides and beneath the bridges of the city. Some evangelical prophets hire soccer stadiums to prophesy during Easter, while others conduct ceremonies on the peripheries and mining wastelands of the city. How can we understand the resurgence of prophecy, and what can it tell us about the post-apartheidapartheid urban condition? In this chapter, we make a twofold argument. First, we propose that in its contemporary use, the “prophet prophets ” is a divinely authorised reader and mediator of disjunctive spatial, temporal and moral morality ordersorders . Second, we argue that prophets are compelled to provide empirical evidence that a provisional freedom and mobilityMobility in the city can be achieved—indeed that it can be made visible as an accomplished, if evanescent, fact. At the same time, however, by incarnating the word of God or channelling the Holy Spirit, they can also foreclose certain possibilities for their followers, while imposing forms of social, moral morality and gendergender ed control." @default.
