Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and turn ye again to Me, that your sins may be blotted out, in order that ... times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord
In Matthew 12:36, Jesus is presenting a condition. He says, "A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
The emphasis is the heart.

Right now, we have the ability to intercept (if you will), the frequency waves going through the air. You can go to different radio stations, ham operators, anything. It is all out there. It is buzzing around us right now. We can tap right in and listen to what people are saying.

No not really, but it does mention false teachers, false Prophesying, false Pastors, and Minsiters.
The Bible tells how these will be Judged First i.e in 1 Peter 4:17 For it is the season of judgment beginning from the

The Bible wasn't written in English, it was transliterated from the Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic language, we are to Translate, e.g the word Passover is "pesach" a made up word from two English words,,, Pass and Over
Most readers take the English definition far too literal, when we must take it back to the original and translate,,, And so it is.
