Deuteronomy 18: the test for a false prophet — a prophet who speaks in God's name what God has not commanded shall die

I Think I Have Proof That Mormonism Is Not True 00:33:11 – 00:33:41

Scriptural framework for evaluating false prophecy

In response to a question, Mike cites a scripture (likely Deuteronomy 18:20) about prophets who speak in God's name things God has not commanded them to say. He applies this directly to Joseph Smith: Smith was 'clearly truly fabricating things' from his own 'imaginations and deceptions,' and Scripture says such a person is a false prophet who 'shall die.' Mike notes he is not calling for anyone to harm Smith, but that this is the biblical category that applies.
