Don’t Trust Wolves Who Look Like Sheep

Beware of false prophets, who come to you dressed as sheep, but inside they are devouring wolves. Matthew 7:15 Amplified 

False prophets were around during Jesus’ time…and they are here now.

o   When His disciples ask about the end times, Jesus told them…Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. ... Matthew 24:11 and …For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Matthew 24:24

o   Peter wrote to Christians dispersed throughout the known world…But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. 2 Peter 2:1

Wolves aren’t to be trusted—nor are sheep that are really wolves in disguise. False prophets aren’t to be trusted. Their silver tongues speak words that sound good, true and excellent—but beware of those smooth talkers. Test anything prophetic against the Word of God. Does it match up with the Truth? 

RSVP: Jesus is telling us to beware of false prophets. Will you listen and respond to Him today? 

Prayer ~ Jesus, … false prophets also will arise among us, just as there will also be false teachers among us, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying You as the Master who bought us, bringing swift destruction upon themselves…from 2 Peter 2:1. Open our eyes to see Your Truth and to identify false prophets in our midst. We give you the praise, honor and the glory—for You are the Truth, the Way and the Life.
