False prophets caused ancient Israel to rebel and disbelieve God, indeed, to the point of God divorcing Israel, Jer. 3:8. Evil spirits indwelling false prophets and their teachers have greatly increased for they failed to kill Christ at His birth, then again when He was two years old, and when they took up stones to stone Him, and lastly they failed to destroy Him at the Cross. Jesus Christ rose from the dead and ascended to the right hand of His Father! Therefore, because Satan and his minions failed to destroy Christ, post-Calvary, they try to destroy His word of testimony.
Today, the Letter will provide you major truths about false prophets and their teachers. It’s a major theme on God’s heart, for He desires His people to be informed, discerning and able to identify false prophets and their teachers and to give them absolutely no space in your life. The Lord Jesus said “know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32), and said “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6). DO NOT WAVER ON THAT ETERNAL TRUTH! False prophets and their teachers kill truth.
Second, know what God means by false prophets and their teachers. “The prophets prophesy lies in My name. I have not sent them, commanded them, nor spoken to them; they prophesy to you a false vision, divination, a worthless thing, and the deceit of their heart” (Jer. 14:14). Reread that. Discern it. Use it to measure what you’re taught. And “there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction” (2 Peter 2:1). Reread and understand that. These truths are kept hidden in most organized churches.
Third, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Tim. 3:16–17). [My emphasis] Every Christian should desire to be equipped in truth and not deceptions and lies that come from evil spirits serving Satan. And there’s no greater deceiver than Satan and his evil spirits who are allowed to take up residence in the minds and spirits of men and women not committed to Christ. “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works” (2 Cor. 11:13–15). [My emphasis] Reread that, because they’re INSIDE most churches.
Therefore, ANYTHING of biblical consequence that opposes the word of God in Christ is that which comes from the mind, spirit and mouth of a false prophet or their teachers. Get that truth deep into your heart, mind and spirit, because if you’re led by God’s Spirit He will alert you to lies, deceptions and traditions of men that lie against the word of God in Christ. Do not be like the majority of church-goers who accept carte blanche what comes from the pulpit as being the truth. MEASURE WHAT YOU HEAR AGAINST GOD’S WORD IN CHRIST! I will give you examples of false prophets and their teachers in action operating INSIDE the Christian churches. One of their traits is that they will often spin Scriptures to say the opposite from what it says, for its Satan’s mission to destroy the testimony of God in Christ. In the following examples I’ll use a T to denote God’s Truths, and an R to denote the Rebellion of false prophets and their teachers.
T – God clearly said that there is only “one body” of believers, “one Spirit … one hope … one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all” (Eph. 4:4–6). This is true for all believers of God and His Christ from Adam and Eve six millennia ago to all true post-Calvary believers from every nation, tongue and ethnicity. God said “There is neither [ethnic] Jew nor Greek…slave nor free…male nor female…And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Gal. 3:28–29).
R – J.N. Darby and C.I. Scofield, however, gave the non-discerning church Dispensationalism that says God has multiple bodies of believers from many different dispensations and that God deals with each group of people differently within their respective dispensations. It’s a total lie with absolutely no Scriptural support whatsoever, crafted by evil spirits desiring to portray God as a God of partiality and favoritism, which is also a lie, Acts 10:34, Rom. 2:11, and James 2:9.
T – Jesus said there is one resurrection of the dead, “for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves [which includes believers and unbelievers from Adam and Eve to present day] will hear His voice and come forth—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation” (John 5:28–29). Also, Jesus said three times that the resurrection occurs “at the last day” (John 6:40, 44, 54), not seven years before the last day which is the wicked claim of the pre-trib rapture and deceptions of Dispensationalism.
R – Darby’s and Scofield’s Dispensational lies, however, in order to satisfy evil spirits, say there are multiple resurrections occurring at different times that involve different people. Again, that’s a lie with absolutely zero Scriptural support. Yet untold millions blindly believe evil spirits’ lies.
T – Jesus said He gathers “His elect”, not pre, not mid, not pre-wrath, but “Immediately after the tribulation” (Matt. 24:29–31). The “elect” are Christ’s true believers mentioned repeatedly in the New Testament. There is only one group of “elect”, it’s those who believe the Lord Jesus Christ.
R – Darby’s and Scofield’s Dispensational lies, however, say that God gathers His “elect” before the seven-year tribulation even begins, which is the basis of the wicked pre-trib rapture narrative. Tens of millions of believers are presently deceived by the pre-trib rapture and in that deception have set themselves up for great offense and falling away from faith, Matt. 24:10 & 2 Thess. 2:3.
T – God’s Spirit said that “the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first” (1 Thess. 4:16). Here we see the resurrection Jesus taught at John 5:28–29. It’s a very LOUD and VISUAL event! The prophet said “He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him” (Rev. 1:7).
R – Darby’s and Scofield’s Dispensational lies, however, teach that the rapture at 1 Thess. 4:16 will be a SILENT and SECRET event, literally mocking that Christ’s “shout” and “voice of an archangel” and “the trumpet of God” will be heard secretly and silently ONLY by believers! It’s hard to imagine the spiritual bankruptcy and deliberate rebellion of those who devise such evil untruth against God in Christ. Only those inspired by the Devil and his evil spirits could conjure up such lies against God’s word, Prov. 30:5–6. Regarding the historical and biblical redemptive works of God, He has NEVER done so in SECRET or SILENCE. Historical evidence proves it. Yet, in spite of its anti-Christ agenda, tens of millions of deceived Christians actually believe it.
T – Concerning unbelieving Jews of Israel, Jesus said to “Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch” (Matt. 15:14). Jesus also said about them, “You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do” (John 8:44). And believers are commanded “not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? [All rhetorical questions] Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God” (2 Cor. 6:14–16). But millions of believers reject God’s command.
R – Darby’s and Scofield’s Dispensational lies, however, tell believers to find solidarity and unity with unbelieving Jews of Israel! And tens of millions of believers do just that! Millions of evangelical believers are being spiritually led to blindly and rebelliously unite with unbelieving Jews of Israel in deliberate rejection of God’s word in Christ Jesus. Can’t make this stuff up!
T – And regarding taking the gospel abroad, Jesus said “And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!” (Mark 6:11). The gospel went FIRST to unbelieving Jews of Israel and they vehemently rejected it; rejecting the prophesied Messiah who came 2,000 years ago! And Jesus gave clear and intentional commands to stay away from such an ungodly people.
R – Darby’s and Scofield’s lies, however, in open rebellion to God’s word, mandate evangelical Christians under the demands of 19th and 20th Century Zionism to find unity and solidarity with unbelieving Jews of Israel. And in response, millions of evangelical believers and their churches send hundreds of millions of tithe dollars to Israel and travel to Israel to foster illegal solidarity.
T – Seven times Jesus called leadership Jews of Israel “Hypocrites!”, then also “blind guides”, “Fools and blind”, “like whitewashed tombs which indeed are beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness”. He also called them “Serpents, brood of vipers!” All those accusations of grave evils made by Jesus of unbelieving Jews can be read at Matt. 23.
R – Darby’s and Scofield’s Dispensational lies, however, seek through Zionism’s false, perverted and wicked ideology, to literally unite unbelieving Jews of Israel with evangelical Christians. It’s open rebellion against God and His Christ to seek such ungodly unity and solidarity with people who still to this very day with hostility reject the truths of Messiah Jesus Christ. Zionism does the exact opposite from what God and His Christ command! Ah, the Day of Judgment comes!
T – Jesus said to the persecuted church about unbelieving Jews “I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan” (Rev. 2:9). Jesus also said to the dead church “Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you” (Rev. 3:9). Understand that, in the sight of God, unbelieving Jews of Israel are NOT Jews. They are just as lost as any other unbelieving people and in need of faith in Christ.
R – Darby’s and Scofield’s Dispensational lies, however, have led millions to believe their lies instead of Christ. As God clearly says, unbelieving Jews of Israel are the antithesis of true Jews as recorded at Rom. 2:28–29 saying “he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God”. Amen!
T – God said by His Spirit, “Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression” (1 Tim. 2:11–14). God bore witness a second time saying “Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says. And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church. Or did the word of God come originally from you? Or was it you only that it reached? If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord” (1 Cor. 14:34–37). [My emphasis] God clearly forbids women serving as pastors and deacons.
R – Much of the evangelical church, however, in open rebellion and unbelief literally appoints women to positions of authority over men in the church. They dispose of God’s word and then marvel in perplexity at the egregious sins of moral failures plaguing the church. What’s equally repugnant is that attendees don’t seem to mind. It’s very telling in that, many church members have little to no concern for rebellion against God, demonstrated by their continued attendance.
Christian men’s headship at home and in church must be governed by 1 Cor. 11:3. Let God’s authority and not the rebellion of men “making the word of God of no effect” (Mark 7:13) be your conviction in leadership. Honor God’s word no matter the cost. Your Judge is God, not men. If you so honor God, don’t be surprised when rebellious men in positions of religious authority oust you from serving in the organized church. Rebellion leads to many other sins which the world is more than willing to report. This article reveals the results of rebellion in mega-churches. Sins of rebellion and perversions don’t exist in mega-churches alone, but in medium and small churches also. God’s purging of the end-time church is now, 1 Peter 4:17.
As believers we must be subject to God’s word, because He is KING of kings and LORD of lords. False prophets, and their teachers, and their followers, BEWARE! “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall” (Matt. 7:24–27). Is your house built on the Rock of Christ or sands of rebellion?
My second book “ON EAGLES’ WINGS” explains in detail how to know Christ and find God’s Bozrah sheepfold of safety and place of provision for the last 1,260 days of the great tribulation.
