But you're the one saying that an "angel of light to deceive believers is also capable of doing good fruits"
You are the one saying the fruits of an angel of light can mimic the fruits of a good prophet.
No Kam, I said no such thing, either you don’t understand what is being said, or you’re deliberately twisting what I say to you in order to elevate your position, that is called deception and not being of good fruits
I didn’t write “angel of light can mimic the fruits of a good prophet.”
This is what I wrote
.” the cunning tactics of the devil, who can masquerade as an angel of light to deceive believers is also capable of doing good fruit in a tactical way to deceive believers to follow another Jesus”
Baha'u'llah is the founder of the Baha'i Faith, not of Christianity or the Gospel.
That in itself what you wrote is not an issue at all, as an angle of light is from God, so is a true prophet sent by God, the issue is that after Jesus there are no more prophets, as everything has been revealed in Jesus, God’s nature has been fully revealed in Jesus
In the Gospel of John, Jesus declares, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life;
no one comes to the Father, but by me.' (John 14:6) along with other verses. This shows Jesus as the ultimate revelation of God, through whom all must come to the Father. He is the “Word” made flesh, the perfect and
complete expression of God's divine revelation to humanity.
the fullness of revelation: 'In giving us his Son, his only “Word,” God spoke everything to us at once in this sole” Word”
Pope Benedict XVI emphasized that Jesus Christ is the definitive and complete Word of God to humanity, stating that 'God has said everything in his Word' and 'nothing surpasses this Word.'
In other words there is no more prophets to come, period, many imposters throughout the ages have claimed to be Christ or incarnation of Christ, for example Simon Magus (Simon the Sorcerer) – Mentioned in Acts 8:9-24, he was a Samaritan sorcerer who claimed to be divine or the Christ., Montanus, Hon-Ming Chen (leader of the Taiwanese cult God's Salvation Church), David Koresh (leader of the Branch Davidians), and Marshall Applewhite (leader of the Heaven's Gate cult). Moses Jacob Ezekiel, Alan John Miller claims reincarnation of Jesus Christ and teaches a spiritual philosophy. Jim Jones Leader of the Peoples Temple, Haile Selassie, Sun Myung Moon, José Luis de Jesús Miranda, A Puerto Rican leader who claimed to be the reincarnation of Jesus Christ and the Antichrist simultaneously, and Claude Vorilhon (Raël) – Founder of the Raëlian movement, who claims to have met extraterrestrial beings and that he is the messenger of an alien species.
And I ran into this today, others claiming to be Christ

So my friend theirs is no shortage of people imitating Christ or of Prophets and coming up with some gimmick as to whey they are true in order to elevate their position

What is your Biblical reference about the angel of light since you seem to mention it so often? Show me the Bible verses that describe the characteristics of this "angel of light"
Geez Kam, this is simple theology, and you don’t know it, In biblical terms, the phrase "angel of light" refers to a being or influence that appears good, pure, or divine but may actually be deceptive or evil. It is used to describe false teachers, prophets or deceptive spirits that disguise their true nature behind a facade of righteousness.
The idea that the devil can present himself as an angel of light and may imitate goodness to deceive believers is supported by several biblical passages. Here are some relevant verses:
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 (NIV) "For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising then if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve."
This passage explicitly states that Satan can disguise himself as an angel of light and that his servants can imitate righteousness to deceive.
2 Corinthians 11:3 (NIV) "But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ."
This highlights the cunning tactics used to deceive believers, similar to Satan’s deception of Eve.
Galatians 1:8-9 (NIV) "But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse."
This warns about false teachings that may appear good but are deceptive.
Matthew 7:15 (NIV) "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves."
This emphasizes the deceptive appearance of false teachers and prophets.
Matthew 24:24 (NIV) "For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect."
This indicates that deceptive tactics, including doing signs and wonders, can be used to mislead believers.
Revelation 12:9 (NIV) "The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
This depicts Satan as a deceiver leading the world astray.
----------------------------------
You can't be referencing 1 Cor 11:14 could you?
Because that's with reference to apostleship not prophethood.
You are the one saying the fruits of an angel of light can mimic the fruits of a good prophet.
First of all, you mean 2 Corinthians 11:13-15, and the reference in most bibles have it as “servants of righteousness” and the meaning of that is as follows:
The "servants" mentioned here are deceptive teachers, false apostles, or false prophets, individuals who present themselves as righteous or true followers of Christ but are actually working for Satan to deceive others. They imitate genuine servants of righteousness but with different intent, often promoting false teachings, distortions of the gospel, or other doctrines contrary to biblical truth, see above list for examples
Again, I did not say “
fruits of an angel of light can mimic the fruits of a good prophet.” Read above, I said The devil can, mimic the fruits of an angel of light
It's a common tactic used by impersonators of Christ, to claim some connection with Him or his divine nature, in the likes they are Christ, or incarnation of Christ, nothing new, today it's known as identity theft
