The Word of God testifies that many false prophets will come all over the world in the End Times and will lead astray even some of the elect (Mt. 24/11, Mk. 13/22).

True prophets are those who speak the Word uttered by God without adulterating, distorting or manipulating it. For that they must be chosen, anointed, given a special mission and sent by God. It is the Spirit of Wisdom that dwells in them, guides them and speaks through them (Wis. 10:15-11:4, Wis. 7:27). But, false prophets are those who preach without being empowered and guided by the Spirit of God. They project their own thoughts and feelings as prophecies from God (Jer. 23:16-20). God warns us that all the false prophets who will appear on the earth in the End Times will be guided and controlled by the spirit of the Antichrist (2Pet. 2:1-2, 1Jn. 4:2-6).

Satan began to send false prophets from the time God began sending His Prophets. Moses was the first true prophet and John the Baptist was the last. But the Word of God declares that true prophets (the same old Prophets) will be sent in the End Times in order to pave way for the Second Coming of the Son of God and to minister to him.

Jesus Christ exhorts his beloved ones to discern those who pretend to be the apostles of God but are not in fact so and stay away from them (Rev. 2/2).

How can we discern the false prophets? It has always been a challenge from the time of Moses to discern the true prophets from the false ones. Many leaders and authorities in the established Churches say that all those who teach differently from them or accuse them are false prophets. But this is NOT true in the sight of God. It is to be noted that for the Jewish priests and the teachers of the Law who paraded this argument 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ and the Apostles were false prophets and agents of Satan. In fact, all the true prophets have always been rejected by their contemporary church (Acts. 7/51-52).

A tree is known from its fruits and in the same way false prophets can also be known from their words and deeds, which are their fruits.

“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles? In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit (Mat. 7/15-18).

The good person out of the good treasure of the heart produces good, and the evil person out of evil treasure produces evil; for it is out of the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks (Luk 6:45).

Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will know them by their fruits (Mat. 7/15-20).

Where do we find the signs of the false Prophets? Good fruits are not good in the worldly terms, but on the basis of the Word of God. God has enumerated these signs of the false prophets in the Word of God so that any one who seeks God with a true heart are not led astray. So God commands us to seek and read from the Book of the Lord (Is. 34:16) and the Word of God is the Truth (Jn. 17/17).

The Holy Spirit has prophesied 2000 years ago through Apostle Paul, where the false prophets would come and what they would do.

Acts 20:29-30 – I know that after I have gone, savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. Some even from your own group will come distorting the truth in order to entice the disciples to follow them.

If we examine in the light of the Word of God the teachings that are prevalent in Christian churches for some years and that have come out in the open now, we can realize who the false prophets are.
