False Prophet: How to Identify them.

Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

2 Tim 4:3 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

2 Tim 4:4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

2 Pet 2:1 [NIV] But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.

2 Pet 2:2 [NIV] Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.

2 Pet 2:3 [NIV] In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

Matthew 7:13-23
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Matthew 7 (and there are many other scriptures) is an earth-shattering wake-up call for prayerful Bible discernment. If we, as Christians do not shine the exposing light of the Word of God upon preachers, Christians or anyone and everyone, how can we possibly obey the clear admonition of our Lord and Saviour in Matthew 7:15? How can we "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves"— if we do not "judge" who are the "false prophets"? How in the world can we even KNOW who are these "false prophets"? They appear as "sheep" or saved people, but they are "ravening wolves." There is only one way—the unchangeable, perfect Word of God.

wow..so i see them as politicians and fancy evangelists and bad imams and corrupt rabbis and bankers and media creations and oprah,etc....there's a reason i don't go to any church of organized religions..i can study on my own..but i do like to converse with like-minded folks

[bigbadboriqua]

@heterohighelf Amen, I follow the warning of our Lord and Savior and got out of organized religion. Now, I just study the word, pray, and fellowship with like-minded folks such as yourself.

You failed to mention the first and most important red flag of a false prophet, and that is if they teach against the commandments, or deny that they are still in force - all of them, including the Sabbath day commandment, and the other Holy Day commandments as listed in Lev.23. Yashua plainly stated that He did not come to destroy the law. James, the brother of Yashua, refers to it as the Royal law, and Peter refers to true believers as a Royal priesthood. If one applies this, they will be OK

[bigbadboriqua]

@Whiteknight777 Amen brother, I forgot to note that down in this video. But, every commandment of YHVH is still in effect.

did any money given to God wind up in their own pockets? ... that is the best way to tell ... follow the money.

God's prophets will never take a gift, donation, favor ... or anything of that nature. God's prophets give His word at no price .

[bigbadboriqua]

@GraceHead1 that so true. a real prophet will never accept anything for preaching the gospel

[Outboundz]

i wonder why jesus hated money, so much and we seem to love it, and everyone followed the beast

[anddihier]

Talk about stearing from the word of truth===God's name is "JESUS"..Why are we not using it here in this video???

And we have no other book of salvation message other than Acts, thats the church and we must obey and do what they did, nothings changed from that..John 3:3-5, Acts 2:38..After Acts is to the Holy Ghost filled people on starting churches. Before Acts was 4 Bio's of Christs death,burial and resurrection..to build our faith in him. Jesus told us what to do to be saved...

[ronnryancelestial]

@Nex777Regime true... but we have to examine such church first if its of god.

[ronnryancelestial]

thank you for posting this BIGBADBORIQUA!

[MrVic1954]

It is finished... John was the last prophet of predication. All else from that time forward are reciters of scripture.

[MinisterQuietBuck]

I like how Eliyah put it.... 1:450 ratio.

1Kings 18:22 Then said EliYah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of YHWH; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.

Thanks for this video, it's pretty helpful. :)

[faithful827]

@bigbadboriqua and heterohighelf ... regarding organized religion , a very wise and holy friend of mine had this quote "Spirituality without religion is nonsense, self-pandering with a veneer of just enough outward piety to pretend that there's some content to it."

[faithful827]

easy to tell...anyone who teaches anything contrary to what His Church teaches is a false prophet...for example...look at the guy who calls himself the third eagle of the apocalypse
