BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS

Daily Reflections

The world has known a lot of false prophets. In every field of life, there are always people who would rise up to distort and destabilize the normal current of life. But it is worse in the spiritual realm. One of the major problems that has caused painful damages in our environ today is the presence of too many false prophets. St. Paul warned fervently against them. Many early fathers of the church reiterated this same point. Bishops of our time has not stopped doing the same. Yet, so many people fall prey to their evil machinations. They go about tearing families apart, sowing seeds of discord and using the name of the Lord in vain. Be careful with people like Hananiah. They will always prophesy to you what you would like hear, and your always loud response of “AMEN!” may lead you to doom.
