Bible Note: Dear Bab, The scripture is clear that we have to test the spirits (angels are spiritual beings) since Satan can disguise himself as an angel of light, his followers can work miracles to deceive us. 1 John 4:1 Beloved, 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. 1 John 4:2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; 1 John 4:3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. 2 Cor 11:14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Matt 24:24 "For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Shalom Azure |
