-Is a "New Testament prophet" the same as an "Old Testament prophet"?  What does the Bible teach?

-One marked parallel between the Old Testament prophet and the New Testament apostle is that an apostle was commissioned by Christ, “sent” by him on a speciﬁc apostolic mission just as Old Testament prophets were “sent” by God as his messengers.

-To the disciples (who were to become the “apostles” after Pentecost) Jesus said, “As the Father has sent me, even so I send you” (John 20:21, RSV). In a similar way he told the eleven disciples, “''Go therefore and make disciples of all nations''” (Matt. 28:19).
-And on the Damascus Road, Christ said to Paul, “I will send you far away to the Gentiles” (Acts 22:21, Acts 26:17; 1 Cor. 1:17; Gal. 2:7-8). In fact, just as the Old Testament prophets were covenant messengers, so in 2 Corinthians 3:6 Paul calls himself a minister of the New Covenant, and Paul often referred to the fact that Christ had entrusted him with a speciﬁc commission as an apostle (1 Cor. 9:17; 2 Cor. 1:1; 5:20; Gal. 1:1; Eph. 1:1; Col. 1:1, 25; 1 Tim. 1:1; etc.).
-It is not surprising, then, that when we read the New Testament we ﬁnd several times when the apostles are connected with the Old Testament prophets, but New Testament prophets, by contrast, are never connected with Old Testament prophets in the same way.<ref>Wayne Grudem, The Gift of Prophecy (Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2000).</ref>
