I have referred to Witness Lee as a false prophet, and to certain ones as "the fruit of a false prophet". However, my understanding of "false prophet" is generally quite different from most people.
I do not think that a "false prophet" is not a real prophet. Instead, I consider Judas and Balaam as the two key examples of a false prophet. Both were real prophets, truly representing God and speaking His word accurately.
But both were also false, pretending to be holy men of God when in reality they were quite motivated by money.
(I have argued that the term "cult" is not biblical, too vague, and based on the definition could be applied to the early church.)
