I have to agree that there are false prophets in the world today. However, there are also true prophets. Why would God not have real people today to speak His Word? But we must pray to understand which is which in the world. Click the link below to the Epistle of James and read verses 5 & 6.

It depends who you are talking about. I am skeptical of all preachers. They are guilty until proven innocent in my book. With that said, I can't say that I am disgusted with someone that is spreading the word of Jesus. Even if some are corupt, if they can save one person, then they are worth it. They have a voice and a message that non christians otherwise wouldn't hear. If they open some eyes and make those people think. Then, I don't think that they should be condemned.

YES!!! Even the so called gentler religions are as bad. The pope lives in luxury, the dalai lama travels first class everywhere he goes and yet people worship them! It's easy to preach and tell people what they should do, how they should think, act etc but we have to live in the real world.

There are many that push that fine line religious nuts. There have been many of them that were nuts and still are many.
There is nothing I can do but feel sorry for the ones who follow them.

Part of the reason I am an atheist is because of the Evangelist ministers, priests who molest children and doomsday Prophets. I also cannot understand or respect anyone who follows them much less listens to them.

There are good and bad out there. Those who you think might be false prophets others might think are great. List who you mean, and it would be easier to answer.

forget about it, this is told in the bible this would happen, false teachers , false prophets. we need to keep focused on god and keep preaching the truth. if we focus on them too much we will lose our focus on what we should be doing.

Oh, yeah. Thats okay, though - as you probably know, that very thing is the fullfillment of prophecy. Christ is returning with a rod of iron for correction, and He states He will start at the pulpits.
Gee, wonder why, huh????
