Deuteronomy 18:20-22

Deuteronomy 18:20-22 CSB

But the prophet who presumes to speak a message in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods #— #that prophet must die.’ You may say to yourself, ‘How can we recognize a message the LORD has not spoken? ’ When a prophet speaks in the LORD’s name, and the message does not come true or is not fulfilled, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him.
