    Gullible believers can be misled by false prophecies. We are told in Scripture to judge all prophecy. This message equips Christians with nine tests to determine whether a prophecy, dream, vision, etc. is from God.

    During the last two messages, we have addressed the need to judge prophetic ministry. Last week we learned from the story in 1 Kings 13 where the failure to judge a prophecy cost a man his life. It led him astray, and he was killed by a lion. Jesus warned about the increase in deception that ...read more

    The Holy Spirit is not interested in producing a bunch of grapes with one big, fat grape and eight little, tiny grapes; but He wants us to grow in all nine characteristics simultaneously.
