How To Identify "False Prophets" by SavageGarden(m): 9:29pm On Jan 10, 2015 |
The first protection real Christians have is our faith in what the biblical revelation clearly teaches. For example, when the true Christ Jesus appears from heaven with His angels, you and I (as Christians) will be transported into the clouds to meet Christ in the air (I Thessalonians 4:13-18). But when Satan and his angels are cast out of heaven (Revelation 12) whom the world will believe is Christ and His angels coming back to earth, you and I will NOT be caught up in the air to meet that false group of spirit beings descending from heaven. You and I can know for certain that such a "Second Advent" is a false Advent. No matter what miracles, signs and wonders are performed by those evil hosts coming from heaven, those spiritual beings will NOT be Christ and His angels. All people at that time who support the claim of these false spirits will themselves be "false prophets." What we need to do is to ask the Father and the real Christ (our Elder Brother) to protect us during those times ( and they will) because the whole world is going to be deceived into believing that Satan and his angels are actually Christ and His angels returning to earth at the Second Advent. There is another infallible proof that can protect you from the wiles and deceptions of false prophets (though they may claim to be the greatest Christians the world has ever seen). That is the fact that the apostle Paul stated dogmatically that "there is ONE God, and ONE mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (I Timothy 2:5). This means in the clearest of terms that there is NOT a human on this earth, NOR is there an angel in heaven, who is an intermediary between us (you and me) and the Father, except Christ Jesus. It is Christ who is our only Mediator. This provides for us a great "test" for those who claim to be spokesmen or spokeswomen for Christ. The truth is, there is not a man, woman, child, angel, archangel or cherub who has any mediatorial role to play in our individual relationships with the Father. Christ is that ONLY Mediator! So, what does this mean in detecting "false prophets"? This means that you and I need no Pope. We need no men as Priests. We need no Ministers. We need no Evangelists. We need no Faith Healers that you or I must seek out for healings or other blessings. We need no Prophets nor do we need any person whatever! But almost all the False Prophets are in the business of saying something like: "You have to come to me for blessings." Or, some may say: "You have to go to that man or to that woman for anything from God." They often say: "Christ has given men authority on earth to be your ministers and you have to submit to them and to the authority of the leaders of the Church of God." This is pure and unadulterated nonsense. Worse than that, it is the propagation and dissemination of the Antichrist system where you have men standing in as the representatives of God. So many claim that the men who lead in any Church of God are the human authorities to stand in for God in exercising God’s law among humans. The truth is, however, any man or woman who teaches such a dastardly doctrine is violating the principle of I Timothy 2:5 where it states that NO HUMAN or ANGEL can be a Mediator between you and the Father. Only Jesus Christ has that role and that authority. Men who assume such powers are "Antichrists." There is also one other essential truth to keep in mind. We are told in the Holy Scriptures that only the Father and Christ now have immortality (I Timothy 6:15,16). Yet the vast majority of so-called teachers and prophets today (even in the Christian world) claim that you and I who are humans also have immortality. This is a lie of the highest rank. You and I are humans and we are mortal. We shall not receive our immortality until we are resurrected from the dead at the Second Advent of Christ (see I Corinthians 15 for this clear teaching). But some 90 percent of Christian teachers and ministers today (including even those who claim to have direct contact with God through their "tongues speaking" and similar "spiritual experiences" teach and pro- mote the so-called "Immortality of the Soul." They will tell you that each of us has an "Immortal Soul" and our "soul" will experience a future life either in heaven with Christ and the Father or in an ever burning "hell" with Satan and his fallen angels. This is an absolute LIE! This is the very first LIE that the serpent taught Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, and "false prophets" have always perpetuated it. If anyone comes to you (even with great signs, wonders, miracles and foretelling accurately some future events) and also teaches the "Immortality of the Soul," you can know instantly that such a person is an outright "false prophet." Really, it is quite easy to identify the "false prophets. |

Paul and Jesus must have been the first false prophets for they taught the immortality of the soul. Let me help this young man 1. What is immortality? 2. Are angels immortal? |
