Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 13-24

We start off this week with a warning regarding a prophet that rises up OR Dreamer of dreams

Don’t let them lead you to another god.

“Have no other gods before ME”

• Signs and wonders are not the markers of a true prophet – it’s not an authentication of a true prophet of Yahweh.
  • Remember back to Pharoah’s magicians in the book of Exodus… they had occultic powers that allowed them to perform signs and wonders.
  • Antichrist and false prophet – will perform signs and wonders….
• Death penalty is the just judgement for such a false prophet – anyone who was deceiving God’s people
• “So you shall purge the evil from your midst.”

*We can’t be naïve to think, that we could never do this… we have to be aware of the voices that we’re listening to. Scripture tells us that faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the Word of God…. Our ears are gates to our faith being built up and our faith being destroyed. If we’re listening to voices that plant doubt into what God’s Word says and what God’s word means… take for example God’s words on gender and marriage… culture has looked to re-interpret God’s Word to “mean” something else… that we can still be a “Christian” and live certain ways…. Beware of he false teachers and prophets leading you away from the Word of God.

We can’t pick and choose what verses we want to believe and follow and what we don’t, and still call it Christianity. Careful of the false god of Christianity that is made in the image of man, and not the revered Word of God.
