Beware of false prophets, who to outward appearance are sheep, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.

out of the heart proceed evil designs, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimony, slanders.

he reply'd, which? Jesus said, "thou shalt do no murder, thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness,

many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

for there shall arise false Messiahs, and false prophets, and shall shew such astonishing miracles and prodigies, as to deceive, if that can do it, the very converts themselves.

Now the chief priests, the senators and the whole council, endeavour'd to get false evidence against Jesus, that he might be condemn'd to die.

but they found none: and though many false witnesses came, it was not found sufficient. at last there came two false witnesses, who charg'd him with saying,

you know the commandments, "do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not steal, do not bear false witness, defraud not, honour your father, and mother."

for false Christs, and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and prodigies, so as to seduce, if it were possible, even the very elect.

there were indeed several, who depos'd what was false against him: besides, what they deposed was insufficient.

at last there appear'd some, who gave in false evidence against him,

wo unto you when the generality of men shall applaud you: for so did their forefathers behave to the false prophets.

you know the commandments, "do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honour thy father and mother."

where they produc'd false witnesses, who said, this man is continually inveighing against the holy place, and against the law.

then they dragg'd him out of the city, and stoned him: the false witnesses having laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.

Having travers'd the isle as far as to Paphos, they found a Jew there nam'd Barjesus, who was a false prophet and magician:

loves others hath fulfilled the law. for this, "thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet;" and whatever social precept there be, it is reduced to this single head,

and this I say, not to commend myself again unto you, but to give you an occasion of glorying on my account, that you may confront those who make a false show of glorying.

for these are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguised so as to pass for true apostles.

in my voyages I have been frequently in perils from rivers, in perils from robbers, in perils from my own countrymen, in perils from the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the country, in perils at sea, in perils among false brethren;

and as to the false brethren, who insidiously crept in to spy out our liberty which we have by Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into servitude;

in charity, in patience: the aged women likewise, to behave with sanctity of manners, not false accusers, not given to tipling,

it being plain that such a person is perverted, and knows in his own conscience that his tenets are false.

but if envy and contention imbitter your minds, don't think your false pretences can stand against the truth:

where false zeal, and a spirit of contention reign, there confusion and every vice prevail.

As there were false prophets among the people of Israel, there will likewise be false doctors among you, who by introducing pernicious sects, and by renouncing the Lord, who bought them, will bring upon themselves swift destruction.

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

and I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

and the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles in his favour, by which he seduc'd those that had received the mark of the beast, and those that worshipped his image. these were both cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

the devil that seduced them, shall be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
