  • Deut 18:15-22 : 15 The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you– from your fellow Israelites; you must listen to him. 16 This accords with what happened at Horeb in the day of the assembly. You asked the LORD your God:“Please do not make us hear the voice of the LORD our God any more or see this great fire any more lest we die.” 17 The LORD then said to me,“What they have said is good. 18 I will raise up a prophet like you for them from among their fellow Israelites. I will put my words in his mouth and he will speak to them whatever I command. 19 I will personally hold responsible anyone who then pays no attention to the words that prophet speaks in my name. 20 “But if any prophet presumes to speak anything in my name that I have not authorized him to speak, or speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet must die. 21 Now if you say to yourselves,‘How can we tell that a message is not from the LORD?’– 22 whenever a prophet speaks in my name and the prediction is not fulfilled, then I have not spoken it; the prophet has presumed to speak it, so you need not fear him.”
