False PROPHETS Flashcards
False Prophets
Ezekiel 22:26-28
[26]Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
[27]Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.
[28]And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken.
Jeremiah 23:28
[28]The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.
Jeremiah 23:26-32
[26]How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
[27]Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
[28]The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.
[29]Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
[30]Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.
[31]Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
[32]Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.
They preach for money
Micah 3:11
[11]The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
Tithes is not money.
Deuteronomy 14:22-26
[22]Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field bringeth forth year by year.
[23]And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the LORD thy God always.
[24]And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy God hath blessed thee:
[25]Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose:
[26]And thou shalt bestow that money for whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul desireth: and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thine household,
Covenant with death (Edom)
Isaiah 28:15
[15]Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
John 11:47-48
[47]Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.
[48]If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.
2 Maccabees 4:15-17
[15]Not setting by the honours of their fathers, but liking the glory of the Grecians best of all.
[16]By reason whereof sore calamity came upon them: for they had them to be their enemies and avengers, whose custom they followed so earnestly, and unto whom they desired to be like in all things.
[17]For it is not a light thing to do wickedly against the laws of God: but the time following shall declare these things.
The Foolish Sheperds.
And what are their instruments
Zechariah 11:15-17
[15]And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
[16]For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.
[17]Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
The ones of us that will not learn but make a covenant with deathnand sold God for 30 pieces of silver. These men are for them self and don’t care about their people
Zechariah 11:3-17
[3]There is a voice of the howling of the shepherds; for their glory is spoiled: a voice of the roaring of young lions; for the pride of Jordan is spoiled.
[4]Thus saith the LORD my God; Feed the flock of the slaughter;
[5]Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: and they that sell them say, Blessed be the LORD; for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.
[6]For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD: but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into his neighbour’s hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.
[7]And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
[8]Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.
[9]Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another.
[10]And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.
[11]And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the LORD.
[12]And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver.
[13]And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.
[14]Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
[15]And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
[16]For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.
[17]Woe to the idol shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
Prophesy against the false Sheperds
Ezekiel 34:1-11
[1]And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
[2]Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?
[3]Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock.
[4]The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.
[5]And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.
[6]My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them.
[7]Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
[8]As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;
[9]Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
[10]Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them.
[11]For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.
