Narrative:
Cleared for the ILS 25 approach at lzu. Sic (second in command) armed the appr (approach) mode on the proline 21 avionics. The localizer needle centered and started to receive a glideslope indication. Upon reaching 2;500 feet we determined that we were receiving a GPS glideslope and not the glideslope for the ILS. We climbed back to 3;000 feet and continued the approach without incident.the error that we made was that we did not backup the information with the DME which would have informed us that the glideslope intercept was closer to the airport.
