There are people in this world who loves to talk as prophets of wisdom or prophets from GOD so that they can get their audiences complements. But the people who actually know those so called prophet wanna bees know that they are evil and NOT real.

e.g.: Assume there is a man who preaches others about “how to be a good person” but he him self abuses /curses his wife and kids.

If there is some one I know who is trying to be a false prophet and who talks and acts like a prophet but who does so many sins behind the curtain and if I tell that to his audiences that he does so many sins and that they are listening to a man of sin, would I be committing a sin?

If I say this to educate the audiences that they are listening to the man of sin, still would I be committing sin?

If I were you I think I would confront the "prophet" him self and try to get him to change rather than to tell the mass of people, but that just me.

I would say that it is your duty to expose the false prophet, for the sake of Jesus' Bride, for the good of the flock.... after all, we have numerous NT examples of the writers of the NT exposing false prophets, look at Galatians where Paul not only exposed false teachers, he exposed one of the very 12 as teaching false doctrines! And if Peter himself should be confronted with the truth in a very public way, so much more so should other false teachers.
