IF there was the possiblity of being wrong then why invitation to judge prophetic words (I Cor.14) hold fast to the good ( I Thess. 5), amazing in the light of your narrow view on prophetic gifts, the Apostle Paul wanted these carnal, gifts run amuck Corinthinan Church members to prophesy more than already were, more than they spoke in tongues, even told them to pray for these unique, narrowly defined, possible stoning offence, if wrong, run the risk of being labeled a false prophet, words from the Lord.

You make an assumption from what the scripture DOESN'T say:
And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut.
[31] And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.
[32] Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down unto them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they left beating of Paul.
[33] Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done.
I would say that the Jews had already bound him (as they were beating him, and it can be rather difficult to hit a moving target); it was the Romans who commanded Paul bound with two chains (additional restraint, because the Word of God is not in error)
