Which of the following is a messenger believed to be sent by God with God's message?

• A. Apostle
• B. Disciple
• C. Saint
• D. Prophet

Answer: (D)

A prophet is someone believed to receive revelations from God and to deliver those messages to people. This role is about transmitting divine guidance—whether laws, calls to repentance, or promises of salvation—so the community knows God's will. Across traditions, prophets are seen as God's spokespersons, not just followers or ordinary teachers. An apostle is a messenger who carries the teachings of a founder, such as Jesus, to others; a saint is someone venerated for holiness. These roles involve different relationships to divine messages. The prophet best fits the idea of being sent by God with God's message, as seen in examples like Moses sharing the Law, Isaiah delivering prophetic messages, or Muhammad conveying the Qur'an.
