With the recent death of Pope Francis and the selection of next pope, social media has lit up with multiple videos and podcasts discussing, the “prophecy of the popes.”
Some of you are perhaps hearing about this mysterious prophecy for the first time, while many others have heard about it over the years, but are not certain as to what it is.
Should Christians give consideration to this age old prophecy, and should it be taken seriously?
In today’s study, I would like to answer 3 questions that have been asked about the “prophecy of the popes.”
1 - What is the "Prophecy of the Popes"?
2 - How Accurate Are the "Prophecy of the Popes"?
3 - How Should Christians Respond to Extra-biblical Prophecies?
Then we will learn 3 Biblical criteria for judging prophecy:
1 - Prophecy Must Align with Scripture
2 - Prophecy Should Be Judged by Others
3 - Prophecy Must Be Fulfilled
------------------
Key Scriptures for today’s teaching: 1 John 4:1-6
Other Scriptures in this study: I Thessalonians 5:19-22; Deuteronomy 13:1-4; 1 Corinthians 14:29; Jeremiah 23:30-32
Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living Translation

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
