Malachi 4:5: Difference between revisions

Line 146: Line 146:


Paul taught that ''“Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.”'' (Romans 10:4).  So, if the law has no dominion over Christians after Jesus’ righteousness is imputed to us by faith, then the judgment of the prophets (including Elijah) also have no dominion over us by the same faith.

Note what Peter said:
:''But '''false prophets also arose among the people''', just as there will be '''false teachers among you''', who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.<ref>The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), 2 Pe 2:1.</ref>
The Old Testament had false prophets but what we were to watch for in the New Testament is '''false teachers'''.
