The way to distinguish if someone is a false prophet is when they lie and speak falsehoods. In the one video a man comes up and attempts to peacefully and in a gentle tone of voice engage the speaker. The speaker accused him of assault, which according to the video, didn't happen.

You can also tell a false prophet by the way they treat women. The treatment of the woman speaking, wasn't that of a man of God. Jesus certainly didn't treat women that way, the woman at the well, Mary & Martha, the harlot that poured oil on his feet, etc

He really has a thing about Anabaptists, doesn't he?

So he sets up a video camera, starts telling people they are going to hell, and records their response to broadcast on his website? That seems more like trolling than preaching.

Rebuking a bunch of old Amish and Mennonite men for being idle because they are playing shuffleboard on vacation?

Sorry, but your tactics are really rude and I would hate to be bothered by you at the park. No wonder if they called the cops.

Most of whom have probably worked 10-times harder in their lives in productive employment compared to this guy.

I generally prefer Bible studies in a quiet and private setting, prayerfully, without shouting, taking time to carefully read the passages in context and talk things out. Without anyone filming me to make a show of it.

I didn't watch any videos. Did they seriously call the cops? What happened?

Anyone know this guy's history? Did he come from an Anabaptist background?

He doesn't seem to actually know much about Anabaptist theology or teaching, according to his website. Where is he getting his view of Anabaptism from?

Is he actually converting anyone, or just trolling people so he can film them and put them on his website?

He is not a bitter ex-Menno. "We were false converts in man's modern denominational religion for many years" but he does not identify the denomination; he denounces them all.
