Re: Do You Listen To False Prophets?

This is the scripture that pinpoints this issue for us, I believe.

1 John 4:1-3
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 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.


Those who are antichrist do not believe that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh are not of God, and this is that spirit of antichrist that we must beware of.

No doubt there is something that each one of us believes about God that is probably not right, because we are just human, and cannot understand or know all the mysteries of God. Life is a journey of revelation, and understanding, and learning to know Him better. Yet... if one believes that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh, this is not the spirit of antichrist that John was speaking of.

There are bones in the fish in just about everything you hear, it seems, some things you agree with and some perhaps you don't. But when someone outright does not believe that Jesus is God manifested in the flesh, it is then we should part ways.
