Dangers of False Prophets.

So many False prophets out there today or to many people declaring other people as messiah. Louis Farrakhan Nation of Islam comes to mind and  their are others like Scientology both different types of false teachings made by False prophets. Jesus warns us from following these types of groups.  Matthew 7:15-23 not only does he warn us not to follow these false teachings and teachers but warns of what will happen when you do so. They come in two types. One is runed by people who believe in their own teachings like Nation of Islam and Scientology that makes money off the lost.

 Both use fear and promise of a better life if you just follow their teachings. You will have powers over your life or your race will be on top and if you fall away they try to keep you in anyway they can. Jesus warns us in Matthew 24:24  that they would claim to do miracles. That they can make everything alright when in reality it is false hope and false promises based in lies.  Jesus is the only way to salvation and anyone that says no it is works or no it is God wants us to live in sin then they are an agent of cheap grace. Grace without cost because it is Grace without Jesus and the cross. It maybe easier to think the law can save or everyone is saved but it cost nothing and their for worthless to save one's soul. Cults live in these places on extreme or the other.

There's are a few ways to know if you are looking at a a False Prophet. Do they preach hate for a race or a group of people? Do they say giving them money is the only way to salvation? Do they claim to have all the answers? Do the feed off of fear and insecurity of others? All cults run like this and they deny Jesus and his teachings and most of the time run counter to the Bible. 1 john 4:1-6 know God to ultimately know what is right and wrong. To find out who is a prophet or who is not.
