Is Your Messiah a False Prophet?

 

Deuteronomy chapter 13 speaks words of warning towards a false prophet. One who gives signs and wonders – even ones that come to pass – is defined as the enemy of the Most High. This false one is defined as one that will cause others to abandon Father’s commandments.

The text tells us that this false one is sent to us in order to test us. Have you been tested in this manner? If so, have you used this scriptural criteria to discern and identify false prophets and forsake them entirely? A true prophet of the Most High will point others towards His commandments and not draw them away unto a new gospel that is void of them. Messiah – a true prophet – fully endorsed, promoted and lived out keeping the commandments. He then told His followers that they too must walk as He walked.

In Matthew chapter 5, Yeshua declared by His words that He was a reliable spokesman for His Father when He said, “Therefore, whoever nullifies one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” These words, and many others confirmed that Yeshua was the fulfillment of the prophet that rightly speaks on behalf of the Creator.

How does your vantagepoint of the Messiah that you have inherited look when filtered through this scriptural screen? Does His fulfillment point you *towards* the commandments or “set you free from them and invalidate the need for them” thereby categorizing Him as a false prophet?

Think on this today, won’t you? We must cling to the Word alone and not place our hope in any man-made doctrines that have led the masses astray. Praise the Most High for the wonderful work of the obedient, subservient Saviour Son that perfectly fulfilled the requirements of a true Prophet! Selah.
