Beware Of False Prophets And False Friends

"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit will you recognize them ..." Matthew 7:15-16

Don't follow everyone who wants to lead or direct you. Also, do not believe all that you hear. It is better to watch what a man does than it is to listen to what he says. A false prophet will soon show his wickedness.

People can impersonate friends and shepherds, pray for discernment and read The Bible to help you evaluate what you hear and whom you listen to. This applies to preachers, politicians, community leaders, and some times to friends and family.

Do not naively accept all that you hear. There is a difference between judging a person and discerning that which is true.
