False prophet - a Christian perspective
God has no tolerance for false prophets--people who preach in His name, but who do not truly speak for God. Liars and deceivers of this nature have no place in the church.

Prophet in the Bible: Deuteronomy 13:1-5
In this Old Testament passage, God's people are cautioned to carefully test the words of any self-proclaimed prophet or religious leader. If a prophet's teachings ever instruct people to do something contrary to God's will, they are a false prophet and should be avoided.

Prophet in the Bible: Deuteronomy 13:1-5
In this Old Testament passage, the Israelites are cautioned about people claiming to be prophets. Any prophet, no matter how righteous they sounded, who asked people to disobey God or turn to other gods was a false prophet. The same principle applies today--we must evaluate what church leaders and teachers are saying to make sure they are in line with God's Word.
