He gave lines of discernment to know how.
Matthew 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
They will broaden the way in how to come to God the Father by other than the Son; by pointing to the Holy Spirit as if He is another way to come to God the Father by.
15 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?
The ecumenical Nicene creed of 381 A.D. has broaden the way in the worship place to include the worship of the Holy Spirit with the Father & the Son as these ecumenical creeds were developed to gather grapes of thorns and figs of thistles.
In these apostate movement of the "Holy Spirit" in thinking it is a revival when it was actually apostasy by placing emphasis on the baptism of Holy Spirit with evidence of tongues like in Welsh Revival in 1904-05 & the Azusa Street Revival in 1906-09 and then the likes of Ernest Angeley's Healing Crusade, slain the spirit, being drunk in the spirit, Toronto's Blessings, Pensacola Outpouring, & holy laughter movement, it did not matter if the believer were Catholic or various heretical Protestants, the phenomenon gathers all since it is not about the gospel of Jesus Christ but the glory of that movement of the "spirit' thus gathering grapes of thorns & figs of thistles
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
We have modern tongue speaker today that errantly believes tongues are for private use and yet would condemn being drunk in the spirit, or slain in the spirit, or holy laughter movement to be not of God,
but they ignore His words above because they got that tongue "for private use" by that same route which is receiving the baptism with the Holy Spirit by that sign of tongues for why it is not coming with interpretation, but is gibberish nonsense and thus confusion which God is not the author of that either. That which they condemn is by how the others receive the "Holy Spirit" by other signs too.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
In these apostate movement of the spirit are healings and casting out of devils, prophesying as they can receive visions, and all of that.
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
So by not heeding His words in how to come to God the Father by the only way of the Son, they open themselves up to seducing spirits & doctrines of devils because the indwelling holy Spirit would always points the bride to keep going to the Bridegroom to avoid the spirits of the antichrist that would take their eyes off of the Bridegroom.
The word antichrist as applied in scriptures means "instead of Christ" as in "instead of the Son" and so while the visitations of these spirits of the antichrist are doing their job of taking saved believers eyes off of Him, the indwelling holy Spirit & scripture never will.
Luke 13:24-30 KJV To avoid that iniquity is to strive ye to enter through that straight gate in these latter days where faith is hard to find because the consequence is being left behind at the pre great tribulation rapture event.
