False Prophets on SermonAudio

Another directive of the Lord Jesus says, "judge righteous judgment." It's judgment empty of selfishness, fleshliness, or self-serving thoughts. It's wise, godly and necessary judgment. After Jesus says, "judge not" he proceeds to say, "beware of false prophets." That cannot be done apart from "righteous judgment." This message identifies seven judgments believers must make. It leads us back to "Christ and Him Crucified."

Many voices today claim to speak for God through new revelation, personal impressions, or powerful spiritual experiences. But Christians are not left to chase new words, shifting feelings, or unstable authorities. God has spoken finally, fully, and sufficiently in His Word. In this episode of Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins explains why Scripture must remain supreme in the Christian life. When the authority of the Word of God is weakened, doctrine becomes unstable, discernment becomes unclear, and the church becomes vulnerable to deception. This episode considers the danger of placing personal experience, prophetic claims, or modern revelation alongside Scripture and calls Christians to test every teaching, experience, and claim by the Word of God.

The sermon identifies Freemasonry as a deceptive cult and false religion that opposes biblical Christianity. Using Matthew 7 and 2 Corinthians 11, the text warns believers to discern false prophets by their fruits and reject teachings that deny the deity of Christ or His atoning blood. The message highlights how Masonry promotes self-salvation through works and universalism, directly contradicting the gospel of grace. It urges Christians to examine any affiliation with the organization against Scripture and to remain faithful to Jesus Christ as the sole path to salvation.

Dave Jenkins and Dawn Hill discuss the New Apostolic Reformation, prophetic culture, modern apostles and prophets, and the need for Christians to test everything according to the authority and sufficiency of Scripture.

The sermon contrasts the world's hollow promises of peace with the genuine, enduring peace found only in Jesus Christ. Drawing from Jeremiah 8, it warns against spiritual complacency and double-mindedness, urging believers to seek authentic revival through personal repentance and reliance on God's grace rather than societal approval. The preacher emphasizes that true peace is not the absence of conflict but a divine gift received through faith and humility. By rejecting worldly definitions of comfort and success, Christians are called to maintain their focus on Christ as the ultimate source of stability and salvation. The message concludes with an urgent appeal for individuals to secure their standing before God through sincere faith and ongoing dependence on His mercy.
