2 Peter 2:1[ False Teachers and Their Destruction ] 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.
Micah 2:6[ False Prophets ] "Do not prophesy," their prophets say. "Do not prophesy about these things; disgrace will not overtake us."
Lamentations 2:14The visions of your prophets were false and worthless; they did not expose your sin to ward off your captivity. The oracles they gave you were false and misleading.
Jeremiah 23:16This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD.
I have been...intrigued...( I suppose that is a good word for it) by the teachings on false prophets. Most are found within the OT prophets themselves, and a lot is in the NT. I'm pretty sure I've been urged to cover this stuff by the Holy Spirit- first, because the Lord is being very gracious with me and giving me my Gideon-proof. (I suppose I don't need wet/dry wool, just the hard-hitting Truth of the Word.) Second, because it makes my message or whatever, ever more clear to me. Its all quite amazing, this process by which God is dealing with me. Even in the midst of my husband possibly being laid off, being in a house that is not my home, and being on a whirl-wind tour of my emotions thanks to pregnancy- I feel very secure, content, and encouraged in all of this. Praise God for that!!
