We need not to just learn the scriptures from anyone, but from the people filled with the Spirit of God.
We were told how to identify false prophet teaching falsehood and also how to know the true prophets.
"Matthew 7:15-16 KJV
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. [16] Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?"
