Jesus talked several times of false prophets, and false Christ's throughout his ministry, and we're just seeing the results of what he was talking about. 1 John 4:1-21 tells us to try the spirits, and gives us some guidance as to trying the spirits and what to be aware of.
Mark 13:22 "For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect."
2 Corinthians 11:13-15, "For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."
There may be thousands of false doctrines and misunderstandings of the Bible being pushed by men who gather followers with them to form groups, churches, denominations and so forth.
