Hearing the prophets

I metrics how there were successive waves of prophets coming among the Jaredites before they were finally destroyed. The people rejected them repeatedly. It made me wonder about prophets in our day. We can recognize when the prophet speaks out even when she member of the First Presidency or Quorum of the Twelve speak that we are heading from a prophet but just as Samuel the Lamanite call as a prophet in the days of Nephi who was the leader of the church then so there will be others who give warning sand calls to repentance (and not always religious calls) and the question is whether we will recognize those other prophets. We can already see that some who belong to the church will even fail to hear when the prophet speaks so we can expect many to miss warnings that come from those who are not already sustained as prophets.
