Marks of a False Prophet

Dave Hunt, quoted in The Berean Call, Bend, Oregon, March, 1997, p. 1

Any one of the Bible's six marks of false prophets is sufficient identification:

1. through signs and wonders they lead astray after false gods (Dt. 13:1-4);

2. their prophecies don't come to pass (Dt. 18:20-22);

3. they contradict God's Word (Is. 8:20);

4. they bear bad fruit (Mt. 7:18-20);

5. all men speak well of them (Lk. 6:26);

6. they deny that Jesus, the one and only Christ, has come once and for all in the flesh (I Jn. 4:3).
