false prophets

lets get, straight to the point ,,
The positive against negative ,this means when someone is warning you about a negative things then oppositely that means there are good positive things ( VIS-A-VIS )
This is what Ur bible says about false Prophets ,,,,,,,,,
15) Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16) Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Mar 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. .....
we can all hear and see clearly Christians are talking about false prophets because they already invented with thier minds such excuses to believe not with anything else but just what they have already choosen for themselves to believe without trying to understand the meaning behind the verses.
why have we never seen any one of them talk about the false Christs ? or fancies verses in the bible or the contradictions in the bible?? they wont distort the easy forgiveness they invented for themselves
we all know there is just one true Christ and there is also one false Christ , and i wonder who are the false christs the bible mentioned , in the bible there are (false christ-christs) - and its with (s) so its plural ,
i think that we already know , the false christs who have distorted the doctrines of Jesus and who have in fact distorted the truth , (christ - christs - christians )
this name (christs ) is not about subjective but its topical which reffers to those people who follow the subject
back to the main subject----------
so we can understand ( vis-versa ) from the verses above that there will be false prophets and there will be a true prophet , but why ?? and how come there will be false prophets and a true one ,,, for more explanation ,,,,open Ur mind please,,,, u have nothing to lose if u open Ur mind ....read this verse , slowly and carefully ,,
1Jo 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
why god ordered us to try and says but try the spirits whether they are of god??
the verse says (but try the spirits whether they are of God )
why did god order us to try the spirits whether they are of god??
if the bible is warning us about the false prophets , it would have said , ,," don't ever believe" ,, but it clearly says ( try) ,, this means to try the spirit of the prophets to see if the prophet is from god or not , and he used plural (they ) because there are too many , some will be false and some others will not be false , some will come as a prophet and some will come as good people which god will send for you to help you and to guide you and bad false spirits and prophets will come and try to mislead u , and the prophet in the verse or in any other it could have a genral meaning which could mean people who are preaching the doctrians (preachers -priests ) and you can say they might be disciples
as well , and no wonder we all know that peter denied jesus 3 times and jesus him self called him peter a satan ,
maybe now your are going to say its because Jesus will come and return again (Muslims already believe this )and for this reason the bible says such and such a verse, but if u think this is the right explanation for that then it will lead us to other conclusions which will come through the questions ,
does that mean Jesus will come as a prophet or will he come as a god or as a spirit ?? , think >>>>> according to your beliefs , you say that there is no other prophet to come , so does that mean Jesus will not come back as a prophet
and he will not come as a god because we will be brought in front of him (the almighty ) at the end of the days and then there will be no need for god to say (but try ) because its will allready have been done , because it is the end of the day , there will be no time to try and there will be no need to try ,,(maybe its time to cry),
so the only thing left that the he will come back as a spirit , but we can see clearly the verse says (try the spirits ),,
if he will return to you as a spirit it would have said (try the spirit ) without the plural (s) , and again iam gona say it wont be no need to try beacxuse it will be all done ( the day of judgemnet )
through all this conclusion and according to this verse it clearly states that there will be a true prophet to come after Jesse because the verse clearly says (try ) ,,
it will take sometimes to understand it ,,,, but why ?? why will a true prophet come ? i thought we had already been forgiven according to the bible so there is no need for any other prophets to come as we have already been saved by jesus Crucifixion .. and what will be this prophet's mission because we are allready forgiven ???
John 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever;
and don't tell me the comforter is Jesus himself , because according to John 14:16 Jesus said he will pray to god ( see , he will pray -talking about the future tense when he will be already with god - in that case god would not pray to himself nor would ask himself to give you another comforter -- don't forget this word ( another ) because its says ( another comforter ) which this clearly means he will pray to god to send you some one else
and
i know you are going to reply back with this verse
( John 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. ) but the question is will he come back as a comforter ? so did he why say (another ) in John 14:16 ??????? , and we all know that he will come only at the end of the days
John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
here we can see clearly the verse says ( he shall teach you ) ,, he said (he ) ,," he shall teach you"this states the comforter is someone completely different , not Jesus himself , not god himself cause logically god will not send himself back to the earth(Jesus in Ur beliefs ) only in the end of the days,,,other wise that would mean that he will return to earth 2 times not just only once at the end of the days
so maybe now you are saying the comforter is the same holy ghost and I'm going to remind you with what you believe that (god= the father , the son, the holy spirit - they are all one ) but the verse John 14:16 which it says ( another comforter ) someone totally different and additional for the prophets that were sent for the people before you and for you,,,
but you can understand the relation between the holy ghost and god (according to this verse )if you try to read it in such a way ( which is the Holy Ghost whom the Father ) ,,, (which is the holy ghost whome is the father ) so the holy ghost and the father might be one as you already believe with ,,,
as well you can understand it in such way ( but the comforter which is th holy ghost whom is the father will send in my name ) ,,,,,,,,,,,
and you can understand through this verse ( whom the Father will send in my name ) that Jesus is not the same god ) but it means the father will send the comforter to tell the people about Jesus , and his message to remind them about him and all of what he said and to say what the truth was and is and because the message was in his name (jesus christ- the christianty )
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.,,,
this wonderful verse , Jesus is telling his disciples to be afraid not of what will come because he has allready shown them the right way , and ofcaurse the real christian (which were not called christian at this time ) those whome beleived with Jesus's message , not you , not the false christs ,
 
John 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
he shall testify of me , so he is not Jesus himself one for the same reason the verse said (he )
and he is not the god cause god wont come to you to testify to Jesus , and he god dont need any one to testify to himself because if Jesus ( which he is the god which he is the father the son the holy spirit ) why he would need some one ( a creature he made ) to testify for him almighty ?? and he is not the holy ghost for the reasons we have been through before
John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
John 16:8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement: ..... if the comforter is Jesus himself (or the holy ghost which they all are one according to your beliefs ) . then why did he needed to go a way ?? or it because the comforter is someone totally diffrent ??
John 16:13 How be it when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. John 16:14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. John 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you. John 16:16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
if the the comforter is the same holy ghost (and he is the father and the son ) why he says ( he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself ?
think about these words ( he shall not speak of himself ) , how come jesus (the comforter ) will come back again and will not speak of himself if he is the same god ?
how come the holy ghost if he is god himself shall not speak of himself ???
or is it because the comforter is someone totally different , not Jesus nor the holy ghost nor god himself ??????
and how come the holy ghost will glorify Jesus him self if they are one ??
maybe you would like this phrase to answer back to me ( John 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine ) it means the message which sent with Jesus to you are from god and its for him cause he is the messenger and the message been with his name ??? will see ,,,, back to the topic , why Jesus is not the god ?? for all the reasons which we all knowing but shortly and beriefly ,,,,,, John 14:31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence. if Jesus is god would he says i love the father ?? does it means ( i love myself )????
John 16:5 But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
John 14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh,
and hath nothing in me...
and how come Jesus is the prince of the world and in the same times he have nothing in himself ?
Joh 16:11 Of judgement, because the prince of this world is judged.
if Jesus is the god , who judged the god himself according to this verse???
and ofcaourse there are alot of evidence we all nkow and read about it before


about the prophet of Islam ,
Gen 16:11 And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son,
and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.
John 4:44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no Honor in his own country.
(read the beginning of Islamic prophecy)
Isa 29:10 For the Lord hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.
Isa 29:11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed,
which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:
John 16:14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you.

Sounds to me like then the real Christ was a false prophet. His fruits were not ging to hell, or gong to heaven. So since He offered somthing, anything, He was a false prophet. If I were to say that I am the savior, and offered nothing, in this case thre would be two products.
1. I would be the true prophet unlike Chrsit.

2. No one would follow me, because I would not give them anything in reaturn, including the love of God and all that.

Hey Night Templar, I am having some trouble trying to understand the point of your post. It sure says a lot of stuff but it doesn't really seem to have a clear point or conclusion. Maybe I'm exceptionally thick but I don't seem to catch what you're trying to say. Maybe you could clarify yourself.

Also please remember that many Christians do not believe that Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Ghost are the same person or whatever. I believe they are three seperate beings who work together to bring to pass the salvation of man.

1Jo 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
why god ordered us to try and says but try the spirits whether they are of god??
the verse says (but try the spirits whether they are of God )
why did god order us to try the spirits whether they are of god??
if the bible is warning us about the false prophets , it would have said , ,," don't ever believe" ,, but it clearly says ( try) ,, this means to try the spirit of the prophets to see if the prophet is from god or not.

Good point. You know there's another good scripture that would pertain:

Mathew 7:
15*Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16*Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17*Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth devil fruit.
18*A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19*Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20*Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

According to this scripture, it would seem to me that there is an easy test you can use to tell whether something or someone is of God or of the devil. Simply look at their fruits. Does a church do good? Does it inspire it's members' to do good? Does it help people? Does somebody live a good life? Does he or she bring joy or relief to others? It could be used to try whether a prophet were of God or not. What does everyone else think about this idea?

I feel one of the best references is Jeremiah 23 as it explains what is a fake prophet and certain criteria’s. This I was given when first reading the new testament and found things that didn’t make sense. so I went prayed and the Bible did one of them flick to the page moments, where it seems someone moved for you, as that answered allot of what was missing.

Jer 23:1-40
(1) Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD.
(2) Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD.
(3) And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.
(4) And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the LORD.
(5) Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
(6) In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
(7) Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, The LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
(8) But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.
(9) Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his holiness.
(10) For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right.
(11) For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD.
(12) Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein: for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
(13) And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
(14) I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
(15) Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.
(16) Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.
(17) They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.
(18) For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?
(19) Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked.
(20) The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.
(21) I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
(22) But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
(23) Am I a God at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off?
(24) Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.
(25) I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
(26) How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
(27) Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
(28) The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.
(29) Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
(30) Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.
(31) Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
(32) Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.
(33) And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of the LORD? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you, saith the LORD.
(34) And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will even punish that man and his house.
(35) Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the LORD answered? and, What hath the LORD spoken?
(36) And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.
(37) Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the LORD answered thee? and, What hath the LORD spoken?
(38) But since ye say, The burden of the LORD; therefore thus saith the LORD; Because ye say this word, The burden of the LORD, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of the LORD;
(39) Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence:
(40) And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.

A summary of that goes like this:

You can not use your neighbours words and say he says (to add additional meaning) = Paul, Simon
You can not elaborate on dreams with your own meanings = Simon and meat
You can not say the burden of the lord = Paul
You can not say the oracle of the lord = Paul, John and Simon
They say you shall have peace = Paul, John, Simon
