  • 1 Kgs 22:11-20 : 11 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made horns of iron for himself, and he said, Thus says the Lord, With these you shall push the Syrians, until you have destroyed them. 12 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramothgilead, and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the king’s hand. 13 And the messenger that was gone to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one accord: let your word, I beg you, be like the word of one of them, and speak what is good. 14 And Micaiah said, As the Lord lives, what the Lord says to me, that will I speak. 15 So he came to the king. And the king said to him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramothgilead to battle, or shall we refrain? And he answered him, Go, and prosper: for the Lord shall deliver it into the king’s hand. 16 And the king said to him, How many times must I make you swear that you tell me nothing but the truth in the name of the Lord? 17 And he said, I saw all Israel scattered on the hills, as sheep without a shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master: let them return every man to his house in peace. 18 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell you that he would prophesy no good concerning me, but evil? 19 And he said, Therefore hear the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left. 20 And the Lord said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead?

  • Jer 23:13-32 : 13 And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria: they prophesied by Baal and caused my people Israel to err. 14 I have also seen a horrible thing in the prophets of Jerusalem: They commit adultery and walk in lies. They also strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that none returns from his wickedness. They are all to me as Sodom, and the inhabitants of it as Gomorrah. 15 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets: Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall; for from the prophets of Jerusalem profaneness has gone forth into all the land. 16 Thus says the LORD of hosts, Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you. They make you vain; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD. 17 They still say to those who despise me, 'The LORD has said, You shall have peace.' And they say to everyone who walks after the imagination of his own heart, 'No evil shall come upon you.' 18 For who has stood in the counsel of the LORD and has perceived and heard his word? Who has marked his word and heard it? 19 Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD has gone forth in fury, a grievous whirlwind; it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked. 20 The anger of the LORD shall not return until he has executed and until he has performed the thoughts of his heart. In the latter days you shall consider it perfectly. 21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran. I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. 22 But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way and from the evil of their deeds. 23 Am I a God nearby, says the LORD, and not a God afar off? 24 Can anyone hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? says the LORD. Do I not fill heaven and earth? says the LORD. 25 I have heard what the prophets said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, 'I have dreamed, I have dreamed.' 26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies? Indeed, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart, 27 who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which everyone tells to his neighbor, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal. 28 The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? says the LORD. 29 Is not my word like a fire? says the LORD, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces? 30 Therefore behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who steal my words everyone from his neighbor. 31 Behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who use their tongues and say, 'He says.' 32 Behold, I am against those who prophesy false dreams, says the LORD, and who tell them and cause my people to err by their lies and by their recklessness. Yet I did not send them or command them; therefore they shall not profit this people at all, says the LORD.
  • Acts 19:13-15 : 13 Then certain of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call on those who had evil spirits in the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We command you by Jesus whom Paul preaches. 14 There were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so. 15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?
