Galations 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
"The Spirit clearly says that in the later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons."
1 Timothy 4:1
http://www.megspace.com/religion/museltof/angels.html Both Mormonism and Jehovah’s Witnesses have violated the instruction of the Holy Spirit through Paul when in Gal. 1:8 he warns that if we 'or an angel from heaven preaches any other Gospel to you let them be accursed' (doomed to destruction).

http://www.freeminds.org/history/activfor.htm Joseph Rutherford, second president of the Watchtower, actually claimed that this holy spirit was no longer needed as a Helper to the church, since Christ was now invisibly present and would direct the organization in person through his angels!
http://temaa1p315.homestead.com/New_Age_Angels.html There have been hundreds of thousands of " angelic encounters" good and evil throughout history. They have also played key roles in every human world religion. From the angel Gabriel's announcement of the birth of the Messiah, called Christ, to the angel Gabriel who gave Muhammad the revelation of the Q'uran, and again to the angel Moroni, who revealed to Joseph Smith the location of the golden plates, which allegedly contained the ancient writings that would translate into the Book of Mormon.
-- Angels have resurged in modern society today so much so as to be labeled a craze. Polls indiciate the rising poqularity of angels. Almost three out of four americans believe in angels. That adds up to about 200 Million. Furthermore, worldwide this adds up to about three billion.
http://www.ldolphin.org/gangels.html Not all visions come from God. The enemy is the great counterfeiter and even has the power to accomplish signs and wonders and miracles. Hallucinations, such as those experienced by individuals on drugs, or under severe emotional stress, or deprived of sleep, are usually heightened imaginations. Many false religions and cults base their teachings on the visionary experiences of their founders. Islam was born because the "prophet" Mohammed received a vision from an angel. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Days Saints (the Mormon church) was initiated by a supposedly divine revelation given to Joseph Smith. Demons and evil spirits and Satan himself coming "as an angel of light" are capable of counterfeiting experiences so that they appear to be coming from God when they are not. Such visions have most assuredly not come from the God who gave us the Bible.
"For such men [i.e., false teachers] are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is not strange if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness." (2 Corinthians 11:12-15)
http://www.abundantbible.net/Documents/Church_Desk/Cults.htm 5-THE CULTS AND DECEIVERS APPEAR TO BE TEACHERS OF GOD
There is an abundance of Scripture regarding false teachers, false prophets, cults, etc. The Scriptures show clearly how skillful these can be. Mt 7:15 tells how they COME TO YOU IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING. They look like the real thing, BUT INWARDLY THEY ARE RAVENING WOLVES. Lk 11:44 says regarding the Bible teachers of that time, which also applies to today, YE ARE AS GRAVES WHICH APPEAR NOT. They are leading people to their death—to hell, yet they appear to be authentic. Those that follow their false teachings ARE NOT AWARE OF THEM. Those that follow these false teachers are deceived and don’t know it. Mt 23:27 says these false teachers or cults ARE LIKE UNTO WHITED SEPULCHRES, WHICH INDEED APPEAR BEAUTIFUL OUTWARD. They appear pure and holy and look really good outwardly. They look like true men of God; however, Jesus tells us that WITHIN (they are) FULL OF DEAD MEN'S BONES, AND OF ALL UNCLEANNESS. Within, these cults are dead and have led many to spiritual death—to hell. These cults, 2 Cor 11:13-ARE FALSE APOSTLES, DECEITFUL WORKERS. They even go so far as to transform THEMSELVES INTO THE APOSTLES OF CHRIST. But this should be no surprise, as 2 Cor 11:14-SATAN HIMSELF IS TRANSFORMED INTO AN ANGEL OF LIGHT. The cults, the false teachers, prophets, and religions look like the real thing. They appear to be ministers of righteousness; as it is written, verse 15-THEREFORE IT IS NO GREAT THING IF HIS MINISTERS (Satan’s ministers) ALSO BE TRANSFORMED AS THE MINISTERS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. They may seem very loving and knowledgeable in the Bible or "another Gospel." They may give large sums of money to the poor and do wonderful works. Yet they are still ministers of confusion and deceit.
