Will my boyfriend kill me after we marry?
Question:
Good day,
It is about my relationship with my boyfriend. I have been dating him for seven months, and he has raised a topic about getting married and proposing to me any time. I do love him a lot, and he also loves me. But recently I was told by a prophet that I was in a strange relationship and my boyfriend was planning to use a knife to kill me and he sold me out last year by a friend. I started the relationship in early 2024. I never knew my boyfriend last year.
My boyfriend has never done any harm to me, and he respects me a lot. We have ups and downs and argue a lot due to how impatient a lady like me can be. Whenever I start making arguments, he leaves the room and never raises his voice at me. He always apologizes, even though he is not the cause of the argument. I love my boyfriend, and I want a family with him, but the thought of what the prophet told me has me awake all night thinking.
Answer:
"Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part; but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away" (I Corinthians 13:8-10).
"In that day a fountain will be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for impurity. It will come about in that day," declares the LORD of hosts, "that I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they will no longer be remembered; and I will also remove the prophets and the unclean spirit from the land.
And if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who gave birth to him will say to him, 'You shall not live, for you have spoken falsely in the name of the LORD'; and his father and mother who gave birth to him will pierce him through when he prophesies" (Zechariah 13:1-3)."Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you who practice lawlessness'" (Matthew 7:21-23).
God stated that when the Bible (the perfect law of liberty—James 1:25) was completed, the temporary miraculous gifts used to support its introduction into the world would end. After that time, claims to be able to prophesy would be rejected because God always keeps His word. There are no modern-day prophets of God. See:
- What is your proof that prophecy has ended?
- Why is it always brought up that prophecy will cease?
- I don't see how Zechariah 13:1-5 talks about the ending of prophecy and demons.
You have evidence that this "prophet" is false, staring you in the face. This so-called prophet didn't know that you only met your boyfriend this year. There is no way your boyfriend "sold you out" last year. God never lies. He never gets His facts wrong. "But the prophet who speaks a word presumptuously in My name which I have not commanded him to speak, or which he speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.' You may say in your heart, 'How will we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?' When a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing does not come about or come true, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken. The prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him" (Deuteronomy 18:20-22).
You also know the personality of your boyfriend. The false prophet made up a dramatic tale because he knew it would create panic. People who panic don't think well. They don't stop and say, "What a minute, this can't be right!" They don't challenge the false prophet. Such men don't care if people's lives are ruined. "But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. Many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned; and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep" (II Peter 2:1-3).
Stop believing everything you're told. Find a true church that follows the Bible.
