Is it fair to say that the Bible teaches there are inspired true prophets and uninspired false prophets?

True prophets are inspired by God. False prophets are not.Is it fair to say that the Bible teaches there are inspired true prophets and uninspired false prophets?
Here is another example of how faulty reasoning eventually catches up with those who try to force the Bible to uphold their illusion… The Governing Body does not deny that the organization claims to be, or acts as God’s prophet. What they do deny is that they are inspired. Somewhere along the way someone came up with the idea that it’s all right to put God’s name on their teachings and prophecies as long as


they don’t claim to be inspired. But this causes a problem that they apparently haven’t noticed yet. According to the Bible there are only two kinds of prophets:


• True Prophets


• False Prophets


True prophets are inspired by God. False prophets are not…


• Inspired true prophets


• Uninspired false prophets


But the Watchtower’s religious leaders have created a third kind of prophet that is a mixture or combination of both a true prophet and a false prophet… Added to this is the fact they also claim to be “God’s


spirit-directed organization.” Therefore, when you add up all the things they do and don’t claim to be, they end up a kind prophet that has never before existed. They now have an illusionary Spirit-directed, uninspired true prophet to go along with their illusionary God’s organization.Is it fair to say that the Bible teaches there are inspired true prophets and uninspired false prophets?
Prove the prophets you claim arent inspired by God arent








Are you just asking all these questions to try to make yourself feel better about putting down mormons all the time?





You cant prove the validity of any your beliefs any more than mormons can prove it to you.


Saying that your interpretations prove your beliefs is illogical unless you are willing to accept that mormon interpretations prove their beliefs, too.
Yes. The Bible teaches that His prophets only speak His words, and everything that they say will happen. God told the Israelites that they would know if a prophet was false if even one thing he predicted did not happen. For a comparison, the famous Nostrodomus made hundreds of predictions about the future, centuries ago. He is world famous now and many people swear by him as a great ';seer'; of the future. But his accuracy is only 11%. However, there is not even one prediction (prophecy) in the Bible that has not come true. A 100% accuracy rating. That's hard evidence of something supernatural about the Bible.
1) Is it fair to say that the Bible teaches there are inspired true prophets and uninspired false prophets?





Yes.








2) True prophets are inspired by God. False prophets are not.





Well...basically. But it's a little bit trickier than that. The bible tells us that God will (at times) actually inspire false prophets to provide true prophecy in order to test his followers. The test is this: if the prophet gives credit for the prophecy to anyone/anything other than God, or if the prophet attempts to persuade people to worship any other god, then God is using that prophet to test his people.





There is also a single case in which God intentionally causes a prophet to prophesy falsely. That was done to lead a wicked king to his downfall. The prophet was not a ';true'; prophet, however - that is, he was not a prophet of God.





There is a final case: that of Jonah, who prophesied that Nineveh would be destroyed on a certain day. It was not: the people of Ninevah repented, and God did not fulfill that prophecy. This is the only case I know in which a true prophet prophesied something that did not come true.

Yes.





Biblical instructions regarding prophets are in Deuteronomy 18:





Deu 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.


Deu 18:19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.


Deu 18:20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.


Deu 18:21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken?


Deu 18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.





Therefore, according to scripture, a true prophet is like unto God, because he will NEVER be wrong with what he says will come to pass.





I know of far too many false prophets to expound upon it here. People could save themselves a lot of grief by listening FIRST to the instructions of THE God who loves them.

true prophets are not mentally ill lol. God does speak through living prophets on the earth to day. learn more about how god has restored his church through a living prophet at www.mormon.org
NO! bible teaches is not inspired by prophet this teaching are translated by a human person who has the communication power to translate it brainwashing and eventually becomes an organization that involves money without helping or making a change in this world.
There are two kinds of prophets. True ones and false ones. An uninspired prophet is by definition false.
True prophets are mentally ill. False prophets are in it for the money.
Prophets should find better things to do with their time. Like, you know, contribute to society?
Of course


the old testament gives criteria of truthfulness


and Jesus said you will know them from their fruits
Of course.
yes and its very solid on listing how to point one out.
I would guess, I don't really know!
