Vanity: Beware of False Prophets, False Prophecy
Excerpts from http://bible.cc/matthew/7-15.htm ^

Posted on 12/24/2011 1:00:53 PM PST by Jim Robinson

Excerpts:

Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Kings 13:18 The old prophet answered, "I too am a prophet, as you are. And an angel said to me by the word of the LORD: 'Bring him back with you to your house so that he may eat bread and drink water.'" (But he was lying to him.)

Jeremiah 23:16 This 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.

Ezekiel 22:27 Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey; they shed blood and kill people to make unjust gain.

Daniel 11:34 When they fall, they will receive a little help, and many who are not sincere will join them.

Matthew 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Matthew 24:11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.

Matthew 24:24 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect--if that were possible.

Mark 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and miracles to deceive the elect--if that were possible.

Luke 6:26 Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for that is how their fathers treated the false prophets.

John 10:12 The hired hand is not the shepherd who owns the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it.

Acts 13:6 They traveled through the whole island until they came to Paphos. There they met a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet named Bar-Jesus,

Acts 20:29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.

Romans 16:17 I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.

2 Timothy 3:5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.

2 Peter 2:1 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.

1 John 4:1 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Revelation 16:13 Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

Revelation 19:20 But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

Revelation 20:10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

It’s not his Mormonism I have problems with, it is his Rino-ism!

I know what you are eluding to. But this was just an innocent typo. I actually didn't know that there was such a thing a David's Royal city and that it was different from Royal David's city. Thanks for the lesson. Have a great Christmas.

And as much as I despise Islam, we’re all walking down the same road.

Speak for yourself, I choose the narrow road.

"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and MANY enter through it." Matt 7:13

"But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a FEW find it." Matt 7:14

The Holy Bible is just a version. Just like The Book of Mormon.

God's Word is a version of WHAT?

God was too merciful to send anyone to hell.

God is merciful - He sent us a Savior to die in our place - there is NO greater love nor mercy than that! People send themselves to hell for not believing God's Word. We NEED a Savior and there is only ONE worthy.

"I tell you the truth, whoever hears MY WORD and believes Him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life." Hohn 5:24

Does one ignore someone/something that they say they believe? It certainly shows how deep they really believe. Personal relationship with Our Father is #1 for any Christian. One really can't know anyone without a relationship with them; other an that they, merely, know 'about' him.

"This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose LIFE, so that you and your children may live." Deut 30.

No one is left behind, and a lot of the hellfire and brimstone stuff is something out of a medieval nightmare.

Some choose to stay behind all on their own doing which will prove to be their worst eternal nightmare. There is no more time to wake up!

Gal 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Gal 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Gal 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Gal 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
Gal 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
Gal 1:11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
Gal 1:12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught [it], but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Yeah, and your one “Church” is correct and all others are in the wrong, right? R-i-g-h-t. Peter (a man who denied his Lord three times) is the “rock” of your church, correcto? Remember The Inquisition? sound familiar? Galileo who said the sun was in the center of our solar system not the earth - imprisoned by the infallible church. Remember history? Need a history of the Popes? There were some doozies for an infallible church. Jesus was a Jew. He kept not only Jewish law but The Ten Commandments. He didn’t convert to Catholicism. The list goes on and on and on. So maybe God has a “problem” with your dogma as well. Consider that.

These were all “quotes” from bigheadfred (post 33). I have no problems of what you responded to him. He seems somewhat confused and Biblically illiterate. I’m not going to respond to him but I’ll let you have at it. probably a waste of time if you ask me. Right now I have a papist on my tail with little cloud cover so I’m off.

Spirited: Modalism states that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit never all exist at the same time, only one after another. Modalism denies the distinctiveness of the three persons in the Trinity even though it retains the divinity of Christ.

No, St. Augustine was not a modalist, nor did the author imply modalism.

They haven’t started to blow stuff up yet in the name of Smith.

- - - - -

Blow things up? maybe not. Kill people in the name of Smith? OH YEAH.

Do some research on “Blood Atonement” and “Danites”. There are valid reasons there was an extermination order issued in Missouri against Mormons - and part of that involved blood atonement. Also up until the 1930’s there was a blood oath to avenge the death (kill) those involved in the death of Smith.

Both sites are well sourced and accurate and I can give you additional sources if you wish on that topic and others (books and such).

Joseph Smith was being held in a jail when a mob attacked and killed him. That’s as much as I remember at the moment without checking other sources.

Newsflash, singing Christmas songs doesn’t make you Christian or not. Mormon THEOLOGY makes them not Christian.

FWIW, I know Jews, athiests, and other non-Christians who have released Christmas albums (that include some of the songs you mention).

Johnny Cash released at least one Christmas album and one other hymn album BEFORE he became a Christian.

It isn’t what you do, or even what you say, it is what you BELIEVE that matters.

Merry Smithmas, TP.

Tennessee Nana? I mailed you once privately and you asked a Religion Moderator to tell me never to mail you again. I'd mail you and ask you what the problem was, but I agreed not to do so. I think it was all just a mistake, but I've avoided posting anything to you for months and months.

Are you okay with me now. ;) ?

Merry Christmas Jim!

There is absolutely no sane reason to place ANY faith in the Book of Mormon, because the very existence of that literary piece of deception is what the Bible talks about in Revelation 22:18-19 "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book, and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book."

The writer(s) of the Book of Mormon and those who embrace it are in direct defiance of God's Word in Revelation 22.
