God's Test Over Time Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

that which comes from God endures
that which comes from man perishes
this is the acid test of enduring time

Jesus said many false prophets
will come in my name and will
deceive many but test him true?


“And many false prophets will arise
and mislead many; ” Matthew 24: 11

“But among the people there were
also false prophets, just as there will
be false teachers among you. Under
false pretenses they will introduce
destructive heresies, even denying
the Master who bought them, and thus
bring on themselves swift destruction.” 2 Peter 2: 1


But will they come in his name?
And will they really deceive many?
And will people really believe in them?

“Then if anyone says to YOU, ‘Look!
‘There is the Christ, ’ or, ‘There! ’ do not
believe it. For false Christ's and false
prophets will arise and will give great signs
and wonders so as to mislead, if possible,
even the chosen ones” Matthew 24: 23-24
