Daniel 7:25 KJV And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
So why would the beast want to change times and laws? To keep us from the Holy Days of our Lord.
Leviticus 23:3 KJV Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.
The seventh day of the week is Saturday. And, according to the times set by our Lord, it begins on Friday at sunset. Nothing in the scriptures points to a midnight start of the day. There is nothing Holy about Sun Day.
Matthew 28:1 KJV In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. 6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
We are so far removed from the times and laws of our One True God that people look at this scripture and believe the Sabbath to be Sun Day, a pagan roman day of the week worshipped by the heretics that rule over us.
Matthew 24:24 KJV For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
I was once deceived, believing the Birthday of Christ to be 12/25. Now I know that 12/25 is saturnalia, a pagan sun worshipping holiday. What else do we not know because we just trust in these adherents of satan? Look at what they’ve done recently with BC/AD being perverted into bce/ace.
And why does it matter? For the same reason the doctrines of men and their false religions keep you from a personal relationship with your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. These things are the very definition of the antichrist.
One good example out of the many I could choose from; How many of us keep the Passover? Christ did not do away with the Passover, He observed it with the disciples as the Last Supper. He changed the Sacraments of it from the blood of the lamb to His Blood, the wine. This should be one of our Holy Days but we’ve been led away from it. By evil.
When are going to take our times and laws back, away from the evil ones? We give them this power over us, how can expect anything else but the evils that they currently perpetrate upon us?
What is sepulchre?
It's a tomb for the dead.
Does anyone feel like compiling a list of the false prophets of the past that have led the sheep down the wrong path.
Any sort of authentic list would start with the pope. And would end with the pope too, for that matter. In between you could list arianism (aryanism, yes, more on this later,) gnosticism, mysticism, universalism, satan has use for them all.
also will we have any kind of true confirmation that the next prophet isn't yet another false prophet
Excellent question; this is why you should study and learn the Word of God as though your life depended on it. Because your life does depend on it.
Another part of this is being the prophet that God Wills you to be. We have the Word in us, not just for our own benefice but so that we can give it to those who need it. Part of this is warning others of what God has shown you.
Thanks for this reply sir
Too, you're right that one can't tell a prophet by their profession alone. In the Old Testament the test is stated to be to wait and see if his prophecies come true, and if he has prophesied definitively (set a date) and been proven false then we are to have no fear of him. However, if someone preaches things that resonate with the Holy Spirit in you testing them, including if a prophecy comes true, we can give provisional credit but we are not to become slaves of the prophet but only of the Holy Spirit in him and us. The Spirit of prophecy in us tests the prophecies of others; it is written that, when one speaks, the rest test what is said. All that is to say, if the Spirit of God is not in you, beg and plead with God to grant his Spirit to you through the work of Jesus Christ!
God is ridding the world of evil in a patient, even promiscuous, methodical process. Many of us get visions of pieces of that process, but he is the only one with all the pieces. Therefore he is the one who can be in you to test every vision and to give the infallible answers. Make sure you have invited him to live inside you and then you will always have light for your next steps on the path of life.
