Page "Catholic Apostolic Church" Paragraph 49

Prophetic utterances in any church were the responsibility of the angel who would note what had been said and in turn submit words that were found important to the apostles.

They would in turn use these words to direct their actions, and some would be circulated to the angels to be read to their congregations.

These last were referred to as " words of record ".

No-one was expected to act immediately upon any word but to wait for it to be ministered to them in the right way.
