In every era, there have been individuals who falsely present themselves as prophets in the name of the Lord.They claim to have received divine messages, yet the truth is that the Lord has not spoken to them.
Jesus provided us with a clear guideline on how to identify false prophets. He stated that anyone who does not recognize Him as the incarnate Son of God is indeed a false prophet.
Additionally, those who fail to acknowledge the truth about Jesus fall into the same category. Therefore, it is crucial for us to exercise discernment and be vigilant in identifying false prophets in our time.1 John 4:3]And every spirit which does not acknowledge and confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh [but would annul, destroy, sever, disunite Him] is not of God [does not proceed from Him]. This [non confession] is the [spirit] of the antichrist, [of] which you heard that it was coming, and now it is already in the world.
