Jesus the Messiah has warned us about impostors. But how to discern a false teacher and a false prophet?

Paul the Apostle has a simple advice. Stay put in solid Bible teaching. Old is gold. The new kids of the block are often those who have come to lead you astray.
2 Timothy 3:12-14
In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it,
(end of scriptures).
Being persecuted for teaching wrong doctrines, will produce crocodile tears. Imposer’s might claim to be under attack from Satan, but are basically under the discipline of God.
Nor is it noble accepting being persecuted by your own false shepherd. You must get out of such assembly of the wicked, and let the Holy Spirit guide you into a sound fellowship of followers of Jesus.
As a general observance. it is easier to discern a false prophet than a false teacher.
If a human being claim to be a prophet, but what he promise will take place, do not happen, he is exposed. Now, you better show this man the door of the fellowship. If you do not, the whole family of believers might sooner than later, fall into the trap set up by the man of Satan.
[ You Will Know Them by Their Fruits ] “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
False teachings is often messages that are welcomed. They itches in the ear of those who are gathered. Like the false prosperity gospel, given by claimed to be “pastors”. They want you to believe in an “ATM Jesus”, a copycat of the Messiah, invented in the Bottomless pit.
Preach the word!
Be ready in season and out of season.
Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
If those who have been deceived, had known about their apostasy, they would obviously have repented. But without anyone rebuking them boldly, and offer them deliverance, such persons will march right into the broad gates of Hell.
Those who deny that we are in the last age of deception, or do not care for deceived souls, are most likely a part of the massive deception themselves.
If you are spiritual awake, and not lukewarm, you will be able to see and understand.
[ The Great Apostasy ] Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,
What are the characteristics of the most common impostors, and how will they get worse?
1. Those who worship idols, will try to force you to do likewise. Like accepting the Roman Catholic Eucharist.
2. Those who rape altar boys, will try to force them selves on your children. Like in Sodom and Gomorrah. Do not open your door for their supporters.
3. Those who worship demons, will try to lay their hands on you and demonize you too. Like in the Word of Faith movement, and in other Charismatic circles.
4. Those who love money, will start to rob at broad daylight. Like false shepherds who steal money from their own sheep.
5. Those who are slave of sin, will try to lead you into the same temptation as they fell for. Like all secular people who rejects the gospel.
6. Those who call for boycott of Israel, will start to support those who promise to find the “final solution” to the Jewish problem. Like in Nazi-Germany in 1941.
7. Those who accept abortion, will also accept killing of new born babies with defects. In the name of recession, and the need to cut public spending.
All of them will eventually unite, and worship and serve the last and final antichrist.
How can a man be sure to overcome all kind of evil and wickedness?
Without being baptized in the Holy Spirit, you will not be able to make it to the Kingdom of Heaven.
Heaven are not for people who reject sound doctrines, and often let the wolfs operate inside their fellowships.
Heaven is a place for all who surrender to the Lordship of Jesus of the Bible. They have been born again by the Spirit of God.
Surrender to the Messiah today. And your father God in Heaven will give you the Holy Spirit.

Thank you for this post. It is a true list, but not complete. What about the Church Grow Movement?
A lot of people gathers in a church-like way to have a nice time, and they don’t want to be offended in any way. Don’t speak about hell, and don’t speak about sin. Speak about the purpose af your lives. They will enjoy it.
… and don’t speak about the redemption, it is so negative to men, but speak about, that men will arise and go to Heaven. That issue is positive.
Dear Israel and endetiden
Shalom.
My list can be prolonged. I am writing about impostors, those who pretend to be “believers” and very much proclaim the gospel. A pastor can preach “Christ crucified”, and in the very next moment loot you.
Those who do not give the gospel, can not fool born again believers, the elect of Jesus. That includes the “Pizza-churches’ in the so-called “Church growth movement”.
I agree with most of what you say, but where doe’s Israel come in at? If you are supporting Israel right or wrong no matter what is false itself and not the truth. if you support anything or anyone, right or wrong no matter who are what it is on this earth is a false lie akin to your article on false teachers and prophets. So check yourself!
Hey Ivar Fjeld.
God bless you, I like reading this blog from time to time.
Keep on warning, Ivar Fjeld. Few does it. Seems like few wants to listen to the truth. People want just to follow the ‘stream’ and be ‘positive’ to everything. God bless this post.

Your timely news is enjoyed. However history is being proven DAILY. Every day the WHOLE world is living by and managed by Rome. How you ask? By the Roman Gregorian calendar, the counter, anti- reformation calendar. Before that was the Julian anti-reformation calendar. The Whole world is again following Rome and her new Pope, could brainwashing deception be greater? The whole religious world keeps one of the days of Rome to worship on?

That link that Dennis Stickney gave is to a lawkeeping cult that doesn’t teach the Bible correctly. They teach works for salvation, which leads to hell (Romans 4:5, Galatians 1:6-9), and they force people under the sabbath. Stay away from that link.
Dear Ivar, you have to know you are a blessing to all people, speaking the truth in great LOVE and standing with Israel and the Word of G-d not adding to or taking away from TRUTH , many Blessings from our whole family. one day we will see you up yonder and that is a day quickly approaching..bome quickly L-rd Yeshua…people don’t want the truth, but G-d is patient. that some will perish. they love the lies and reject truth, zillions now believe their is any way to heaven. and refuse to see how G-d said HE sent jihad to sons of disobeidence. not many of the churches even reach out. We need to tell them or their blood will be on our hands..It is a sad day and sin is ok, but we know it is NOT .I see no revival in the US, but I do see about millions of those in Israel are getting their eyes open , Pray for the peace of Jerusale, the times are over or soon over for the gentiles..Shalom
