Nine Tests Of Prophecy Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 26, 2021

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.

It led him astray, and he was killed by a lion. Jesus warned about the increase in deception that ...read more
