False Prophets Would Rise Up and Deceive Many . . .

Bible prophecy warns of things that would happen in the future.  The Bible warns false Prophets would rise deceiving and leading many away from Christ.  The followers of Islam (Islamics, Moslems, and Muslims) follow a Prophet named Mohammed who did rise many years after these prophecies were written. 

 

The Bible even goes on to warn against "Religions" based on "revelations" brought by "angels" that add or teach "other ways" to heaven than simply believing in the only One who died for all of our sins on the Cross and was raised from the dead (to prove there is life in Heaven ... and Hell) 

 

It is interesting that the Prophet Mohammed started "Islam" (Moslems) and the Prophet Joseph Smith started "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints" (Mormons) on "revelations" they said they received from angels!  It is also interesting that they both teach a different Gospel (way to Heaven) than the Bible teaches.  The Prophet Mohammed received his revelation from an angel (he called Gabriel) about 600 years after this prophetic warning was written, and the Prophet Joseph Smith received his revelation from an angel (he called Maroni) about one thousand eight hundred years after this clear prophetic warning was written . . .

 

       "I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him

        who called you in the grace of Christ,  ["grace" means you can't earn Heaven - He paid for you]

        to a different gospel, which is not another;

        but there are some who trouble you

        and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.

        But even if we, or an angel from heaven,

        preach any other gospel to you

        than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.

        As we have said before, so now I say again,

        if anyone preaches any other gospel to you

        than what you have received, let him be accursed."

        (Gal 1:6-9)

 

       "Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.

        And because lawlessness [sin] will abound,

        the love of many [for Jesus Christ] will grow cold." 

        (Matt 24:11-12)

       

       "Then if anyone says to you,

       ‘Look, here is the Christ [Messiah]!’ or ‘There!’

        do not believe it.

        For false christs and false Prophets will arise

        and show great signs and wonders [miracles]

        so as to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

        See, I have told you beforehand."  [Meaning - "Listen, this is a prophecy!]

       "Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’

        do not go out;

        or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’

        do not believe it.

        For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west,

        so also will the coming of the Son of Man be."

        (Matt 24:23-27)

 

 

It's also interesting that the only prophecies found in the Bible that point toward the coming of the Prophet Mohammed or the Prophet Joseph Smith simply say "false prophets will rise up and deceive many," whereas the many prophecies pointing toward Jesus Christ are both astounding and remarkable (see Messiah:  The Mystery of God).

 

 

Have a hard time believing in God?  Just watch the news.  The above verses are clear ... 

 

Why?  God is warning us . . .

 

The Kingdom of Heaven is available to every man, woman, boy, and girl in this world.  It is freely offered to any and all who will receive it.  Simply learn of Jesus, invite Him into your life as Lord, believe He died on the Cross for all of your sins and rose from the grave (proving there is life in Heaven).  Learn of Him and believe in Him . . . for He was the only one who has ever loved you enough to substitute Himself for you on the Cross.  He suffered and died on the Cross to save you from the torments and darkness of Hell ...  if you will accept it.  That is why He is called Savior.  If you sincerely believe these things and ask Jesus to come into your life and honestly try to stop doing those things God says are wrong, you will go to Heaven.

It's God's Promise!!!

 

The only unpardonable sin is to reject God's love and His free offer of life in Heaven by rejecting Jesus Christ, who stepped forth from Heaven ... not to condemn the sinner, but to save the sinner (from Hell) and who willingly and lovingly shed His blood on the Cross so we can be washed clean of all of our sins.  The Bible also says there will be no peace in our lives until we make peace with God, through His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.  The Bible also says there will be no peace on Earth until Jesus Christ returns . . .
