For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Matthew 24:24

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

Amos 8:11 We are in the days of the great famine for the hearing of the true Word of God. The heretics of which you speak are not speaking for God, and the bible talks extensively about decieivers. Jesus said that many would come in his name, acknowleging that he is the Christ and would deceive MANY. This is no marvel and careful you dont eternally blaspheme the Lord by saying that Satan's ministers are the Lord's. How long halt ye between two oponions, if THE LORD be God, follow him, if Baal, follow him. And they answered him not a word.

Because every single one of us is a liar now and again.
I think that using any human being as an example of God is wrong because every single human being on the face of the earth and in the skies above it is a sinner. I am a sinner I lie I cheat I lust after women I get jealous I get violent I get enraged!
But God loves me so Much that He sent his son to die for me. Jesus Loves you and was willing to die and did die for you and me. So that our lying cheating thieving adulterous nature would not get in the way of a personal relationship with him. God be praised!

God doesn't. People choose to be sinners of which liars are included. All people sin. God doesn't choose preachers on the basis of sin. The bible says that Christ died for the ungodly. Those who lie in his name are included in that group. If they repent their sins will be forgiven. If they don't then they will have to answer to God. Simple.

why in the world would any person ever want to say anything like that, even though you do not believe in him he still always believes in you, and still loves you. god sent his only son Jesus Christ to brutally die on the cross to save all sinners, which is , me ,you , and everyone. why would you want to even think of taking a chance that there is no god, you will lose every time. think about it ,heaven forever and ever and ever and ever, in the most perfect place with no suffering ,better than you could even ever imagine. or do you prefer evil death , torture , hate , suffering more than you ever had in your life, times a trillion , well if you like that congratulations it all yours. but it don't have to be, Jesus will free you in all of that just believe and pray and change your heart, listen to christian radio also (American family radio also known as A.F.R is a great place to start, and then talk to someone who does believe in god with all there heart, i am confident if you are willing to listen that there will be great pleasure in your life now and eternity. please don't wait you only have until you die, and as you know that could be at any time. i will be praying for you. from your angel . (GOD LOVES YOU)

some preachers choose themselves to be a preachers but some preachers are chosen to be preachers by God.
untill you become a good friend with God and read the bible thoroughly and where you can find God's advice to find out this preachers you cannot identify them.
be a good Christian
