1 | Is this a false prophet? | Job | Jensen | 33023 | ||
Dear prophet ezra brown….. So prophesying is not necessarily inspired by God. I did not know that. And that is very reassuring since I have heard and read some pretty stupid prophecy. And when the prophet announces “Thus sayeth the Lord…” he/she is always speaking with divine inspiration. And then you would agree that the prophet who claims divine inspiration and is proven wrong, by circumstance, or condition, or the Bible itself, is a false prophet and should not be feared (known) any further. Am I correct? God Bless….Jensen |

2 | Is this a false prophet? | Job | SRN | 33197 | ||
I recall Jesus was called a blasephemer and a liar. a false prophet. I'm not sure I'll know a true prophet if I met one. But would I know a false one. I believe a person saying they are a prophet etc in some sort of illusion is not a false prophet. But if you just turn on sunday morning church TV they are all over your screen, GETTING YOU TWICE AS READY FOR HELL AS WHAT THEY ARE. | ||||||
3 | Is this a false prophet? | Job | Jensen | 33224 | ||
Dear SRN....You wrote... "I believe a person saying they are a prophet etc in some sort of illusion is not a false prophet." What? Is that a question? Do you know that the sentence makes no sense? Are you agreeing, disagreeing or just keeping in touch :-) I agree that false prophets are all over Sunday morning TV. They are also allover our church. I can tell if a person is a false prophet by the nature of their words. If what the prophet says is clearly unbiblical, he is a false prophet. If the prophet speaks of a future event that proves to be untrue, he is a false prophet. Simple tests for a false prophet abound. Really!! There was a "test" that was circulated among the churches that claimed to determine what Gift you had. I do not know the origin of the test but perhaps you have seen it, or took it. It asked several questions that the answers to would evaluate the Christian to determine his Gift. Taking a test to determine your Gift does not seem to be of God....to me. But weak minded, intellectually lazy Christians are only too happy to embrace what I call "HocusPocusChristianity" and all Christianity suffers because our message of salvation can not be heard above the roar of laughter. TEST all things. Do not listen to false prophets. If they are wrong once, just once, then perhaps they are blessed with a different Gift. But if they claim to speak for God,....well, they must be right. God Bless....Jensen |

4 | Is this a false prophet? | Job | SRN | 33619 | ||
appologies jensen i left words out? this was the question 'I believe a person saying they are a prophet etc is or could be in some sort of illusion and is not a false prophet." I can't possibly imagine taking some test to prove my gifts. my gift is life given to me by the One and ONLY. I'm getting excited here. Any church giving a test is kind of going back to the origins of the word church - Circus |

Thanks for your reply...Just one thing though. You wrote... "Any church giving a test is kind of going back to the origins of the word church - Circus" I know that you once heard that somewhere, but it wasn't true. The origin of the word "church" is not circus. "Church" has it's origins like this according to Websters Dictionary.... "Middle English chirche, from Old English cirice, ultimately from Late Greek kyriakon, from Greek, neuter of kyriakos of the lord, from kyrios lord, master; akin to Sanskrit KTra hero, warrior Date:before 12th century"..... ........so "church" has its origins in "Lord" Circus has its origin in the word which means "ring". "Latin, circle, circus— more at CIRCLE Date:14th century" Don't for one moment believe half the crap you here about our church. People will make up all kinds of things to bring even a little dishonor upon His Church. Defend the Faith and His church by testing all things. If it doen't sound right in your gut (Holy Spirit?) then check it out. Be in a position to defend the Faith, to give a reason for the Hope that we have. Your brother in Christ Jesus. God Bless....Jensen |

I wasn't having a go at your church. I was having a dig at any religion that asks me and instructs me in a form of a written/physical test [if that's how it was done]Your explaination of testing faith has anything to do with the test that was mentioned earlier. I get my instruction [although I often don't follow]from God's self. The truth need not be defended. |
