1 John 4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

We are warned in this text to NOT believe everything we hear. Just because someone says I am a Bishop, Prophet, Pastor, Bible Teacher, Theologian, Scholar, etc. does not necessarily means that they are teachers of Sound Doctrine..

Everything that we want to know about life and living is found in the Word of God. We were not created by God to figure out life on our own. God has given us His manual to live by called the "Bible" and we must use it if we are not to be deceived by false teaching.

People of God, you must make sure that what you are being taught biblically is from the Word of God and not man's opinions, ideas, theories, suggestions, etc.

In these evil days in which we live, the enemy is more crafty and deceitful than ever before. We are reminded of these words in Matthew 24:24- For false Christ and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

People of God, it is time to dig deep into the "TREASURES" of God's Word where the ONLY truth about life and living is found.

CHECK THE BOOK! Everything we need to know, every question we can possibly come up with or imagine in our finite mind has an answer in the Word of God.

Your take away today from this message is "YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR"! Study the word of God to show thy self approved unto God!

Today is the day to go against the current of false teaching and hold fast to the truth of God's Word that is found in His bible.

We can not afford to believe everything we hear because the "ANTICHRIST" is among us.

PEOPLE OF GOD, TEST THE SPIRIT!

God bless.
