Jeremiah 14:14

14 And the Lord said to me: “The ^aprophets are prophesying lies in my name. ^bI did not send them, nor did I command them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a lying vision, ^cworthless divination, and ^dthe deceit of their own minds.

Jeremiah 23:21-25

21 ^e“I did not send the prophets,
yet they ran;
I did not speak to them,
yet they prophesied.
22 ^fBut if they had stood in my council,
then they would have proclaimed my words to my people,
^gand they would have turned them from their evil way,
and ^hfrom the evil of their deeds.
23 ⁱ“Am I a God at hand, declares the Lord, and not a God far away? 24 ^jCan a man hide himself in secret places so that I cannot see him? declares the Lord. ^kDo I not fill heaven and earth? declares the Lord. 25 I have heard what the prophets have said ^lwho prophesy lies in my name, saying, ^m‘I have dreamed, I have dreamed!’

Mark 13:22

22 ⁿFor false christs and false prophets will arise and ^operform signs and wonders, ^pto lead astray, if possible, ^qthe elect.

John 5:43

43 I have come ^rin my Father’s name, and ^syou do not receive me. ^tIf another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

1 John 4:1

Test the Spirits

1 Beloved, ^udo not believe every spirit, but ^vtest the spirits to see whether they are from God, for ^wmany ^xfalse prophets ^yhave gone out into the world.
