Bible Question (short): Healing powers of the false prophets? |
Question (full): These people are denied entry to kingdom of God because they never really knew the Lord. Were they ones who were deceived? Were did they get their power to cast out demons from? Does Satin or the Antichrist have power to use the lords’ name to perform miracles? I noticed some good comments on the 1/2/02 posts. One offered the idea that they were actually trying to lie on that Day of Judgment. Another more scary idea, yet as feasible, was that they believed in a 'false Jesus' using his name only but not his reality (maybe having the form of Godliness but denying the power thereof?). When I say Scary, I worry about many preachers, men of God, faith healers, etc. who have really come to believe they are anointed by the Lord and in fact may not be. That's a kind of fear that any Christian should be afraid. Any comments. |
