Why does God ask men not to listen to false prophets?
For millennia, God has been speaking to humanity, asking them to obey Him, to listen to Him, and to live according to His teachings, if they no longer wish to suffer. Why don't they listen?
When will humanity understand that their happiness and peaceful existence depend on Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead?
Since time immemorial, God has spoken to humanity through messengers and servants sent from His kingdom, so that they may know how to behave and live according to their desires, in harmony and peace.
While Lord Krishna Himself often denounced the lies and evil deeds of false prophets, He also often addressed humanity through true prophets such as Jeremiah and Ezekiel.
Jeremiah reveals God's warning to humanity.
Jeremiah first speaks of his resentments: My heart is broken within me; all my bones tremble. I am like a man, drunk as one carried away by wine, because of the Lord and because of His holy words, for the land is full of adulterers. The land mourns because of the curse. The pastures of the desert are dried up, people run to evil, their only courage is injustice.
Prophets and priests are corrupt, even in my house I have found their wickedness.
(Is it any different today?)
Lord Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, says.
Therefore their path will be slippery and dark. They will be pushed and they will tremble, for I will bring disaster upon them, the year I will punish them. Among the prophets of Samaria I have seen scandals. They prophesied by Baal, they led the people astray.
But among the prophets of Jerusalem, I have seen horrible things. They are adulterers, they walk in deceit. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one can turn from their wickedness. They are all like Sodom in my sight, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem like Gomorrah.
Therefore, speaking of the prophets, the LORD of hosts says: Behold, I will feed them with wormwood and make them drink the water of gall, for through the prophets of Jerusalem corruption has spread throughout the whole land.
The Lord God advises us.
