WATCHOUT FOR FALSE PROPHETS

Matt 7:15"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.


God warns us to watch out for false prophets becasue in the last days many will appear saying they are the Christ....

Matt 24:24For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible.

So then how do we recognize the false prophets....

Matt 7:16By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.

So we can recognize the false prophets through their teachings or fruits....

Then what does God teach?
Sabbath
Ex 20: 8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. 11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

Matt 12:8For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

Passover
Matt 26:17On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Where do you want us to make preparations for you to eat the Passover?"
18He replied, "Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, 'The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.' " 19So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.....26While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body."
27Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. 28This is my blood of the[b] covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

THese are the fundametal truths of Christ then what do the false prophest teach.....

Matt 15:9They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men

SUNDAY CHRISTMAS
EASTER THANKSGIVING EUCHARIST

The list goes on and on....so for those who call the Church of God a cult you should take a hard look at your own religion ad see who really follows God's teachings....
