More crafty than the unsaved in their alteration of Scripture are the heretic and false prophet. Also known as
false brethren, false teachers, and false apostles, these come in by stealth, professing themselves to be Christians.
-The heretic takes inspired Scripture, and “adjusts” it to match their own twisted teaching. The false prophet
produces his own Scripture, conjuring up false dreams, false visions, and false words, and then stamps “Thus
saith the Lord” on it as if it were the Word of God. The inspired apostle Paul warned of many, which “[handle]
the word of God deceitfully” (2 Corinthians 4:2) and “which corrupt the word of God” (2 Corinthians 2:17). Paul
reproved the Galatians for falling into “another gospel” (Galatians 1:6), a false gospel, and warned them of
those who “pervert the gospel of Christ.” (Galatians 1:7). The apostle Peter gave a very blunt warning about false
bringing false words:
2 Peter 2:1-3
1. But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who
privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves
swift destruction.
2. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a
long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
For those who add to God’s Word, He will punish with the plagues of Revelation. However, those who take away
from the word are threatened with removal from the book of life, literally the loss of their salvation. All which
add to the Word are declared liars (Proverbs 30:6). Jeremiah chapter 23 proclaims judgment on false prophets.

"Read it again, and again.
Sin is upon all.
Repentance is reviewing one's actions and feeling contrition or regret for past wrongs,
which is accompanied by commitment to and actual actions that show and prove a change for the better. In modern times, it is generally seen as involving a commitment to personal change and the resolve to live a more responsible and humane life.
-Making claim of 'Born Again' .... read the above with an honest evaluation of oneself."
Keeping in mind.... stubbornness and defiance!
