Don’t Be Deceived

Dear friends, do not believe everyone who claims to speak by the Spirit. You must test them to see if the spirit they have comes from God. For there are many false prophets in the world. This is how we know if they have the Spirit of God: If a person claiming to be a prophet acknowledges that Jesus Christ came in a real body, that person has the Spirit of God. But if someone claims to be a prophet and does not acknowledge the truth about Jesus, that person is not from God.” 1 John 4:1-3 (NLT)

Angie turned the television off, sat back and thought about what she heard.

She had been listening to one of her favorite talk show hosts.

The entertainer denied Jesus is the only path to reconciliation and fellowship with God.

So Angie picked up a Bible and wondered, “Were there other ways to Heaven?”

She discovered Acts chapter four, which speaks about Jesus Christ.

It says, “There is salvation in no one else!  God has given no other Name under heaven by which we must be saved.”

[To besavedmeans to be rescued or delivered from our wrongdoings, our sin.]

Angie now knew the truth.  Jesus is THE way!  The ONLY way.

Dear friend, test the claims of others who say they know God.

You can trust the Bible to always speak the definitive truth.
