Antichrists and Abiding // 1 John 2:18-29 // S4-E3
Episode description
Have you ever been scammed? Or do you know someone who has?
It doesn't feel good. And beyond that, in some cases it can lead to absolute financial ruin. But even more devastating than being ruined financially is being duped by false teachers into believing incorrect things about God, Jesus, or yourself.
False teaching can tear apart churches, destroy marriages... and wreak havoc on your spiritual life. So how can you be on guard against being led astray?
The Apostle John recognizes the dangers of false teaching and calls these kinds of teachers antichrists in the letter of 1 John.
See how abiding in Jesus helps give you discernment so you can be alert to what's false.
Inside this episode: • Be warned of the danger that false teaching poses to the Christian's life • Understand how John's warnings against "antichrists" are still relevant today • See how the Holy Spirit can bring discernment to your life so you can evaluate truth from error
Discover how you can be on guard against antichrists, so you can keep yourself and others around you from being deceived
