23, 24 (Matthew 7:20, 21; Isaiah 8:20; Mark 13:21, 22; Luke 21:8; 10:2-5; John 15:10; 1 John 2:4). How to Know a False Christ—We need to be anchored in Christ, rooted and grounded in the faith. Satan works through agents. He selects those who have not been drinking of the living waters, whose souls are athirst for something new and strange, and who are ever ready to drink at any fountain that may present itself. Voices will be heard, saying, “Lo, here is Christ,” or “Lo, there;” but we must believe them not. We have unmistakable evidence of the voice of the True Shepherd, and He is calling upon us to follow Him. He says, “I have kept my Father’s commandments.” He leads His sheep in the path of humble obedience to the law of God, but He never encourages them in the transgression of that law.{5BC 1099.1}

23, 24 (kp. 7,20. 21; Es. 8,20; Mark 13,21. 22; Luk. 21,8; Joh. 10,2-5; 15,10; 1 Joh. 2,4). Hvordan kendes en falsk Kristus. - Vi må være fast forankrede i Kristus, rodfæstede og grundfæstede i troen. Satan arbejder ved andres hjælp. Han udvælger dem, der ikke har drukket af livets vand, og hvis sjæle tørster efter noget nyt og fremmed, og som altid er rede til at drikke af en hvilken som helst kilde, de træffer på. Der vil lyde røster, som siger: "Se, her er Kristus," eller "Se, der er han," men vi må ikke tro dem. Vi har umiskendelige beviser for, at det er den sande hyrdes stemme, der kalder på os. Han siger: "Jeg har holdt min Faders befalinger!" Han fører sine får ad den ydmyge lydigheds vej til Guds lov, men han tilskynder dem aldrig til at overtræde loven.
