Something's amiss. False prophets continue to make more and more false prophecies. It's very easy to track what they say publicly and compare that with what actually happens. It's no exaggeration to say most of them fail.
So why do they continue to flourish? The only reason has to be there's a market for it. What does this say about the body of Christ? My personal opinion is many people see these false prophets as Christian fortune tellers; and just like other forms of divination and fortune telling people get hooked on it. A common trick fortune tellers use is making their predictions so vague that almost anything can be said to be a fulfillment of it. This gets people more involved and makes them feel like their part of it all. It also gives them an emotional charge, keeping them wanting more.
Unfortunately, many people have exchanged their faith for common fortune telling and fortune tellers. They're both to blame. 2 Timothy 3:13: "But evil men and impostors shall advance worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived."
Jesus said: "Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?"—Luke 18:8
it’s fulfilling what the word said both good and bad will come to pass if it’s in scriptire false prophets are part of New Testament prophecy being fulfilled
“And
many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.”
Matthew 24:11 KJV
there are many and they flourish in a wicked world they contribute to destroying faith
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”
Matthew 7:15 KJV
we’re Warned that they will appear s good but thier words will be lies that devour
“Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.”
Luke 6:26
often the wicked world embraces and celebrates false prophets and teachers because they don’t want the truth
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because
many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
1 John 4:1 KJV
“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.”
2 Peter 2:1 KJV
the Old Testament fell apart because the prophets began speaking their own words rather than Gods words they led the people astray from God and destroyed thier covenant made it desolate and defiled it
“Then the Lord said unto me, The
prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them:
they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.”
Jeremiah 14:14 KJV
“Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.”
Lamentations 2:14 KJV
they were telling the people “ Gods warnings will never come were favored and approved chosen and sanctified by the lord we can never fall “ much like today’s false prophets and teachers
False prophets come from false doctrine
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”
2 Timothy 4:3-4
when we read the Bible we’re reading whats as happened , what is happening , and what is going to happen in the future until the end
The words are all going to be fulfilled false prophets prospering in the latter world is certain and was foretold
Often in scripture
it’s happening because God foresaw and then foretold it to warn us not to be deceived by them and stick to the truth of the gospel
there’s a war happening in the world between good and evil and the prize is the living soul of man. We have the gospel to believe and then we have the world seeking to blind us To it by any means necassary
but Gods word v satans has been the issue since The first false doctrine that brought death “ don’t eat the fruit you will die “ …..” no you won’t die it will make you wise like gods “
the same thing will always be God said the truth that will save and keep
Mankind alive and blessed but Satan then tells us the opposite seeking to kill us
it will echoes that way forever through man through prophets sharing Gods re and through false prophets sharing the opposite words
