The Bible says that the false prophets are not the only ones to be destroyed; the people who are misled by these false prophets will also be led into destruction. Isa. 9:16 『Those who guide this people mislead them, and those who are guided are led astray.』 In other words, false prophets slam the doors to the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces, making them into the children of hell.Matt. 23:13-15 『"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven in men's faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are."』Today, who can be considered the teachers of the law and the Pharisees? They are the false prophets who teach people to accept and to follow lawlessness [the rules of men.]Matt. 23:27-28 『"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness."』 False prophets belong to the devil, the father of lies. They do not speak the truth, only lies. John 8:44 『"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." 』Rev. 21:8 『...All liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur...』We must obey God’s laws, following the true prophets who have been sent by God. The devil sends false prophets into the world to deceive people and to prohibit them from following the word of God. If we follow false prophets, we will be destroyed.
