Manage episode 453611341 series 3582316
In this lecture, Don Carson contrasts false prophets, who lead others astray, with genuine prophets who speak truth grounded in God's revelation and call people to repentance. He emphasizes the importance of discernment in times of cultural decay and highlights the vitality of remaining faithfully rooted in the Scripture and committed to moral uprightness despite the pressures of a confused world.
He teaches the following:
- Genuine prophets speak from God, while false prophets speak from imagination
- False prophets will face divine judgment for their deception
- Genuine prophets call people to repentance and biblical knowledge
- What’s spoken by genuine prophets aligns with revealed redemptive history
- God’s sovereignty embraces both good and evil
- False prophets are accepted by many, while genuine prophets are accepted by few
- Faithfulness and discernment are necessary in a world that promotes moral relativism
