DECEPTION – PART 1 (False Teachers) Matthew 7:15-20 Mark Kring, Senior Pastor February 17 & 18, 2018
1. 7:15 False teachers find ears willing to listen mostly among
those who are discontent with God’s ways (Isaiah 30:9–10). 2. 7:15 The most dangerous characteristic of false teachers is
that they claim to speak on God’s behalf (Jeremiah14:14). 3. 7:15 When an enemy is seen for what he is, we are on the
alert and are prepared for the assault. When an enemy poses as a friend, our defenses drop. 4. Scripture speaks of three kinds of deceitful teachers: Heretics—openly reject God’s Word and teach the
opposite of God’s truth Apostates—once followed the truth, but have turned away
and try to lead others away False teachers (deceivers)—give the appearance of
established truth 5. 7:16 There is no need to be deceived; there is always
evidence. 6. 7:16 Christians can be taken in by false teachers when they
are lazy and careless about the Word of God. 7. 7:16 A maturing believer who has discernment will be able
to spot the false teacher (Hebrews 5:13-14). 8. 7:16 The Bible shows three specific evidences of false teachers:
Fruit of Doctrine They speak from delusion, not by God’s direction
(Jeremiah 23:16). Their teaching does not stand up under scrutiny of Scripture’s
light (Isaiah 8:20). They tell people what they want to hear (2 Timothy 4:3-4).
Fruit of Teaching False prophets/teachers carefully avoid things that are offensive to proud, fallen nature, which leads to the following: Rejection of the accuracy of God’s Word Rejection of ‘biblical authority’ Division & scattering of God’s people (Jeremiah 23:2)
Fruit of Character They prey upon the weak (2 Timothy 3:6-7; 2 Peter 2:14). They are notorious for their greed. They are notorious for their lack of humility. While they delight in having authority, they refuse to submit to it (2 Peter 2:10).
9. Jesus needed to use God’s declared Word against Satan’s
deception (Matthew 4). So should you!
QUOTES “Satan is the counterfeiter. He has a false gospel, preached by false ministers, producing false Christians. Satan plants his counterfeits wherever God plants true believers.” ~Dr. Warren Wiersbe “Nothing is more difficult to counterfeit than virtue.” ~John Calvin, 1560
