…a series dealing with the issues of False Teachers, False Teachings, and False Practices
Titus 1:9
“…holding fast the faithful word
which is in accordance with the teaching,
so that he will be able both
to exhort in sound doctrine and
to refute those who contradict.”
1 Timothy 4:1
“But the Spirit explicitly says
that in later times
some will [a apostacize]
fall away from the faith,
paying attention to
deceitful spirits
and doctrines of demons”
1 Timothy 6:3-5
3 If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the doctrine and teaching which is in agreement with godliness (personal integrity, upright behavior), 4 he is conceited and woefully ignorant [understanding nothing]. He has a morbid interest in controversial questions and disputes about words, which produces envy, quarrels, verbal abuse, evil suspicions, 5 and perpetual friction between men who are corrupted in mind and deprived of the truth, who think that godliness is a source of profit [a lucrative, money-making business—withdraw from them].
Also: 1 John 4:5; 1 John 4:6.
“Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our common salvation, I was compelled to write to you [urgently] appealing that you [a]fight strenuously for [the defense of] the faith which was once for all [b]handed down to the saints [the faith that is the sum of Christian belief that was given verbally to believers].” – Jude 3,4

“They [who teach twisted doctrine] are of the world and belong to it; therefore they speak from the [viewpoint of the] world [with its immoral freedom and baseless theories—demanding compliance with their opinions and ridiculing the values of the upright], and the [gullible one of the] world listens closely and pays attention to them.”

Dominionism … by bereanresearch.org
“The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a dominionist movement which asserts that God is restoring the lost offices of church governance, namely the offices of Prophet and Apostle.
Leading figures in this seemingly loosely organized movement claim that these prophets and apostles alone have the power and authority to execute God’s plans and purposes on earth. They believe they are laying the foundation for a global church, governed by them.”

PRACTICES OF FALSE TEACHER EHRMAN
Randy Alcorn writes about “Ehrman’s practice…:
(1) inaccurately conveying what the Bible says;
(2) accurately conveying what the Bible says, then declaring it’s wrong;
(3) arguing the text really doesn’t say what Christians believe it says (why does that matter if what it really says is also wrong?); and
(4) citing Scripture in support of his contentions, even though he regularly dismisses Scripture’s validity.”

Quote from Calling out false teachers *
“…why are we generally so reticent about confronting wrong?
Paul called it out.
We should stand up for the good of others,
resist oppression by authorities,
and speak out against
what is not actually in the Bible.
Don’t be the dumb-ass sheep,
don’t blindly follow some attractive,
exciting politician, political party,
friend, or teacher
who teaches things that are not clearly supported in the Bible.”
2 Timothy 4:3 Amplified Bible (AMP)
3 For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine and accurate instruction [that challenges them with God’s truth]; but wanting to have their ears tickled [with something pleasing], they will accumulate for themselves [many] teachers [one after another, chosen] to satisfy their own desires and to support the errors they hold…
Isaiah 29:13-16 World English Bible (WEB)
15 Woe to those who deeply hide their counsel from Yahweh, and whose deeds are in the dark, and who say, “Who sees us?” and “Who knows us?” 16 You turn things upside down! Should the potter be thought to be like clay; that the thing made should say about him who made it, “He didn’t make me;” or the thing formed say of him who formed it, “He has no understanding?”
