Without the Spirit of truth it’s just errors learning and not able to come to the truth (.indoctrination ).Yes God in heaven is the teacher . It’s worthless trying to debate about it often . People must have ears to hear or it’s a lost cause. Unfortunately there is so much deception that it makes it harder for the hearers . When deceived it’s difficult for them to get out, some do . But God can still reach them , nothing is impossible for God . Jesus warned us many would come in his name and deceive many . A great warning !
Amen... We're should pray for everyone to be receptive to the word, for understanding and wisdom on the topic. May we not be deceived, in Jesus' name, amen...!
Spake as a Dragon. Maybe only Holy Spirit Anointed let's one Hear.
something similar event
Seen & Heard
Spake as a dragon": This means that despite its gentle appearance, its actual words and teachings are malicious, deceptive, and sourced from Satan (the dragon
rev 13 and he spake as a Dragon
Is there anyone who can identify who is speaking like the dragon? Because the Devil resembles the Lord Jesus and he has power.
REVELATION 13:11
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
How can people recognize him if he appears like an angel, and how can his followers also be recognized if what they do appears good in the sight of people
2 CORINTHIANS 11:14-15
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
In the time of the Lord Jesus in the New Testament, who were those who appeared like angels and did good to the Jews, yet spoke with the voice of the Dragon?
This is the test for false apostles or satanic beings that look good and appear to do good things:
Galatians 1
7 which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.
As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.
Do you know those who preached a different gospel during the time of the Lord Jesus in the New Testament? Can you tell who they were?
Matters is son of man Anointed teacher comforter? First Born? Or after Jesus lifted up Glorified?
10 Days later The Holy spirit came and made Abode in His disciples and others passes onTo this very Day .
I only know Jesus as Lord and Christ Glorified.Thats How any of His know, By His Voice not a pretender
No one preached Jesus’s sacrificial death to atone for our sin and subsequent resurrection before Jesus was crucified.
- Genesis 3:15 (KJV): “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” (The first gospel promise of the coming Redeemer who would suffer but ultimately triumph.)
Isaiah 53:5–6, 8 (KJV): “But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray… and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all… he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.”
Isaiah 53:10–12 (KJV) also foretells the resurrection and victory: “…he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days… he shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied… he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.”
Psalm 16:10 (KJV): “For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” (Direct prophecy of the resurrection, quoted by Peter and Paul in Acts 2:27 and 13:35.) - John the Baptist, immediately before the crucifixion:
John 1:29 (KJV): “The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world!” (Explicitly pointing to Jesus as the atoning sacrifice.) - Jesus Himself, during His earthly ministry (repeatedly before Calvary):
Matthew 16:21 (KJV): “From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.”
Matthew 20:18–19 (KJV): “Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.”

It's so easy to "prove" someone wrong when you intentionally misunderstand their statement by taking it in the most negative or restrictive sense.
Along with redemption and comfort, the primary work of the Spirit is to glorify Christ. When a man glorifies himself, or places anything above or beside Christ, he is not operating in the Holy Spirit. Christ reigns supreme. The lips of the prophets glorify Christ and Christ alone, full stop.
Also, anyone who demeans the love of Christ and justness of God does not have the HS (Rom. 2:11, 5:5).
The OP confused them by citing Matt. 24:23: "Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible,
they shall deceive the very elect." The false teaching was "here is Christ".
