Beware of False Teachers

Scripture 2 Corinthians 11:14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

Observation: Paul was discussing false teachers as he spoke to the church. Today there are so many and they twist the word of God the way they desire. They come as Satan did as an angel of light preaching the word, but it’s not the word of God. We can’t depend on pastors and ministers for our knowledge we need to get in the word of God and discover for ourselves what God is telling us. When the time comes, we will not have excuses why we didn’t obey His word He gave to us personally.

Application: There are so many subtle changes some make to the word. Today a brother wrote a text arguing that there are no rewards we can earn for heaven, even though Jesus spoke of them frequently. We can all agree to disagree and we’ll all find out at the end of this life, but I want to get my answers through prayer and God’s word.

Prayer My Lord help me study your word each day. Please take away any distractions and put on my heart what you want me to learn. I want to be ready when you come for me and be that faithful servant you require me to be.
