The issue of how to spot good fruits and bad fruits will be part two...but harder to spot on a forum than in real life to be sure PS THANK YOU for the vote "From that time Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

They are YOU.... if their PROOHET is FALSE... then it is FALSE within you... as you would NEVER find anything out there... that is not WITHIN - YOU.... in-there. Choose your thoughts wisely... Ask and the TRUTH will be given to you... Seek and you shall find. But if your HUMAN EGO is involed... you will see the ASPECTS "OF SELF" that will take you AWAY from the GLORY of GOD within..... It is all game....... REALIZE that... and be at peace for ever. |

It is my opinion that we are all unique individuals created individually by God. That there are people who are these unique individuals going around saying false things about God or on behalf of God. They are not me, they are them. Each responsible for their own actions. Each will be judged at the end, Christians and non-Christians alike. If what you say is true then we'd all be judged the same as one person. And that is not going to happen. So I disagree with that part of your statement "From that time Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Matthew 4:17 |

So you have to have discernment. Genesis 3:15: "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."

That part is easier to do on a forum, especially since the words are recorded and can be reviewed at leisure.

(OP) User ID: 521025 United States 10/13/2008 10:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Bad spellers are usually false prophets Quoting: ANOMALIAbad spelling drive me crazy too. Right or wrong, I discount anyone who spells 'judgement'. I figure a prophet/preacher/teacher should know how to spell one of the most important things in the bible related to the end times! Once I read a blog entry from someone who spelled 'heven'. Oy. Lots of times though the words misspelled are a typo. I am bad at typos. I try really hard at my typing but seems I can't catch them all that I make However, on the Rapture Ready site they make a lot of mistakes related to homonyms: "horde" for 'hoard' for example. Those drive me crazy too. Misspelling and incorrect usage are so rampant everywhere that unless it's egregious, I do what the poster above says, pay attention to the message not the spelling (Like the Rapture Ready site, they are good guys) "From that time Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

On the contrary in a corrupt society to form good opinion of anyone of them and to trust him is to harm yourself. KEEP UR FRIEND CLOSE KEEP UR ENEMY CLOSER! |

Quoting: Dread Pirate RobertsThis is Wrong! However, its what most everybody does: That is; compare what you are hearing, to what you think you already know! And doing this, only helps to reinforce the false learning that you have already aligned yourself with! Look, we are children of the "LIE".......and in order to free ourselves from that condition, we must be willing to let go of what we think we already know, and open ourselves to new ideas and concepts! Otherwise, you will be forever stuck in the rut of someone else's projection......IMO! |

When they take in all this money in the name of helping children in africa(America has the largest foster care system in the world. When people are left hungry. It's time Pay Attention! The false Prophet/Teachers should be exposed, they are not hiding they do their work in our face. Do Not be a respecter of persons just because you like someone doesn't mean they are right. |

So that when you hear a teaching or a preaching, if the teaching or preaching says anything different from the bible, you know it's false. Is this what you were saying?

(OP) User ID: 521025 United States 10/13/2008 03:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Easy. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 453510As soon as they mention "pre-trib rapture", you'll know that they are false. there is scriptural basis for interpreting pre-trib, mid-trib, and post-trib. Rather than accuse Christians who vary in timing of the same biblical event that they all will agree will occur anyway, we should be encouraging one another, building each other up (1Thess 5:11) and looking outward for the ravening wolves in sheep's clothing so as to protect one another from falling away. In my opinion, this is a better approach. "From that time Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Matthew 4:17 |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 525128When the real prophet/messiah arrives there will be no doubt in anyone's mind. I think it's harder and harder to spot the real ones. But the bible does say that in the end times there will be real prophets...Joel 2:28 And afterwards, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. halelujah that we will have this debate forever put to rest when the real Messiah comes!
