Beware False Prophets
By Mark Flippo
26-And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.
27-And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.
28-And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them.
40-And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there.
This is a very clear description of the battle over Truth and falseness!! False prophets have been around for a long time. Many have lost their life savings to these charlatans. Be very careful of any claiming to be a prophet of God. The devil knows the scriptures and will use these people to cause confusion and have you doubt everyone! A True prophet will be a servant first!
You will know them also by their Love!! They will have a track record of answered prayers. Make sure you have prayed enough to know the enemy from your friend! Ultimately you are responsible for your soul and the decisions you make. If you are unsure invite a true Christian to go with you. Take counsel of two to three witnesses about if this person is real or not!! Be careful my children seek out the Truth!!
