Test the Spirits | Lord’s Day Sermon | 18th August, 2024 | Martin Obono

There are so many voices out in the world, fashioned into countless schemes aimed at giving you a false sense of faith and hope that is not in and from God. But not every voice that is bidding you come, is bidding you come from God. And the scriptures, speaking through the apostle John gave this warning;

"Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see if they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world." (1st John 4:1)

It hardly gets more emphatic than that. In as many times as the scriptures speak about the true gospel, it also even more sternly, warns against false teaching. There are many false teachers out there today, just as there were when our Lord and his apostles walked the earth.

Who are false prophets/teachers and how do we recognize them and what to do with them? 

Listen to this sermon as our deacon, Martin Obono delves into the word to show us as he outlines a few steps to help us on our way.
