1A Message From God
2What Kind Of Man Speaks For God
Gen 207 Now therefore,
restore the man's wife for he is a prophet , and
he will pray for you and you shall live. But if
you do not restore her, know that you shall
surely die, you and all who are yours."
Ex 71-2 So the
LORD said to Moses "See, I have made you as God
to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your
prophet . 2 You shall speak all that I command
you. And Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh
to send the children of Israel out of his land.
3What Kind Of Man Speaks For God
God Calls Them Out
Num 124-8
Suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and
Miriam, "Come out, you three, to the tabernacle
of meeting!" So the three came out. 5 Then the
LORD came down in the pillar of cloud and stood
in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron
and Miriam. And they both went forward. 6 Then He
said, "Hear now My words If there is a
prophet among you, I, the LORD, make Myself
known to him in a vision I speak to him in a
dream. 7 Not so with My servant Moses He is
faithful in all My house. 8 I speak with him face
to face, Even plainly, and not in dark sayings
And he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were
you not afraid To speak against My servant Moses?"
4 So the anger of the
LORD was aroused against them, and He
departed. 10 And when the cloud departed from
above the tabernacle, suddenly Miriam became
leprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turned
toward Miriam, and there she was, a leper. 11 So
Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my lord! Please do not
lay this sin on us, in which we have done
foolishly and in which we have sinned. 12 Please
do not let her be as one dead, whose flesh is
half consumed when he comes out of his mother's
womb!"

13 So Moses cried out to the LORD, saying,
"Please heal her, O God, I pray!"
14 Then the LORD said to Moses, "If her father
had but spit in her face, would she not be shamed
seven days? Let her be shut out of the camp seven
days, and afterward she may be received again."
5True or False Prophet
Deut 131-5 "If
there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of
dreams, and he gives you a sign or a wonder, 2
and the sign or the wonder comes to pass, of
which he spoke to you, saying, 'Let us go after
other gods' which you have not known 'and let
us serve them,' 3 you shall not listen to the
words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams,
for the LORD your God is testing you to know
whether you love the LORD your God with all your
heart and with all your soul. 4 You shall walk
after the LORD your God and fear Him, and keep
His commandments and obey His voice you shall
serve Him and hold fast to Him. 5 But that
prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to
death, because he has spoken in order to turn you
away from the LORD your God,
6Are We Tested Like This Today
2 Thess
27-12 For the mystery of lawlessness is
already at work only He who now restrains will
do so until He is taken out of the way. 8 And
then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the
Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth
and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9
The coming of the lawless one is according to the
working of Satan, with all power, signs, and
lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous
deception among those who perish, because they
did not receive the love of the truth , that they
might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will
send them strong delusion, that they should
believe the lie, 12 that they all may be
condemned who did not believe the truth but had
pleasure in unrighteousness.
7How Can We Tell Truth From Lies
1 Tim 43 Now the Spirit expressly says that
in latter times some will depart from the faith,
giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of
demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having
their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3
forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain
from foods which God created to be received with
thanksgiving by those who believe and know the
truth .
Titus
113-16 This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke
them sharply, that they may be sound in the
faith, 14 not giving heed to Jewish fables and
commandments of men who turn from the truth . 15
To the pure all things are pure, but to those who
are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure but
even their mind and conscience are defiled. 16
They profess to know God, but in works they deny
Him, being abominable, disobedient, and
disqualified for every good work.
8 Prophecy Was Meant To Be Obeyed
Judg 67-10 And it came
to pass, when the children of Israel cried out
to the LORD because of the Midianites, 8 that
the LORD sent a prophet to the children of
Israel, who said to them, "Thus says the LORD God
of Israel 'I brought you up from Egypt and
brought you out of the house of bondage 9 and I
delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians
and out of the hand of all who oppressed you, and
drove them out before you and gave you their
land. 10 Also I said to you, "I am the LORD your
God do not fear the gods of the Amorites, in
whose land you dwell." But you have not obeyed My
voice.'"
Judg 613 Gideon said to Him, "O my lord, if the
LORD is with us, why then has all this happened
to us?
9Who Do We Listen To Today
10Christ Is Our Prophet
Matt 1357-58 But Jesus said to them, "A
prophet is not without honor except in his own
country and in his own house."
Matt 2111 So the
multitudes said, "This is Jesus, the prophet from
Nazareth of Galilee."
Acts
322-24 For Moses truly said to the fathers,
'The LORD your God will raise up for you a
Prophet like me from your brethren. Him you shall
hear in all things, whatever He says to you. 23
And it shall be that every soul who will not hear
that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from
among the people.' NKJV
11Not Only Listen But Obey
Gal 31 O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched
you that you should not obey the truth, before
whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed
among you as crucified? Gal
33 Are you so foolish? Having begun in the
Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the
flesh? 1 Peter 417-19 For
the time has come for judgment to begin at the
house of God and if it begins with us first,
what will be the end of those who do not obey the
gospel of God? 18 Now "If the righteous one is
scarcely saved, Where will the ungodly and the
sinner appear?" 19 Therefore let those who
suffer according to the will of God commit their
souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful
Creator.
12To Obey Our Heart Must Be Right
Luke 645 A good man out of
the good treasure of his heart brings forth
good and an evil man out of the evil treasure of
his heart brings forth evil. For out of the
abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
Luke 815 But the ones
that fell on the good ground are those who,
having heard the word with a noble and good heart
, keep it and bear fruit with patience.
Acts 1122-23 Then news of these
things came to the ears of the church in
Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as
far as Antioch. 23 When he came and had seen the
grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them
all that with purpose of heart
they should continue with the Lord.
13How To Know GOD And Be Saved !
1 Cor 121-24 For since,
in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom
did not know God , it pleased God through the
foolishness of the message preached to save those
who believe. 22 For Jews request a sign, and
Greeks seek after wisdom 23 but we preach Christ
crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to
the Greeks foolishness, 24 but to those who are
called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of
God and the wisdom of God.
