  • Deut 13:1-4 : 1 You must carefully follow everything I am commanding you. Do not add to it or take away from it. 2 If a prophet or someone who has dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, 3 and the sign or wonder he spoke to you about comes true, saying, 'Let us follow other gods, whom you have not known, and let us worship them,' 4 you must not listen to that prophet or dreamer. For the LORD your God is testing you to know whether you truly love Him with all your heart and all your soul.
  • 1 Kgs 22:22-28 : 22 ‘By what means?’ the LORD asked. 'I will go and be a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets,' he said. The LORD replied, 'You will succeed in enticing him. Go and do it.' 23 So now the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours, and the LORD has decreed disaster for you. 24 Then Zedekiah son of Chenaanah went up and slapped Micaiah on the cheek and demanded, 'Which way did the spirit of the LORD go when he left me to speak to you?' 25 Micaiah replied, 'You will find out on the day you go to hide in an inner room.' 26 Then the king of Israel ordered, 'Take Micaiah and return him to Amon, the governor of the city, and to Joash, the king’s son.' 27 And say, ‘This is what the king says: Put this man in prison and feed him only bread and water of affliction until I return safely.’ 28 Micaiah said, 'If you ever return safely, the LORD has not spoken through me.' Then he added, 'Pay attention, all you people!'

  • Mark 7:6-9 : 6 He answered them, "Isaiah rightly prophesied about you hypocrites, as it is written: 'This people honors Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.' 7 They worship Me in vain, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men. 8 You have abandoned the commandment of God and hold onto human traditions, including the washing of pitchers and cups, and you do many other similar things." 9 He also said to them, "How skillfully you set aside the commandment of God in order to uphold your own tradition. 10 For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and, 'Whoever speaks evil of father or mother must be put to death.' 11 But you say, 'If anyone says to his father or mother, "Whatever help you might have received from me is Corban"' (that is, devoted to God), 12 then you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or mother. 13 You nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that." 14 Then He called the crowd to Him and said, "Listen to Me, all of you, and understand:

Stay away from such people.
