Have you read Revelation 2:2?
Rev 2:2
‘I know [a]your deeds and your toil, and your patient endurance, and that you cannot tolerate those who are evil, and have tested and critically appraised those who call themselves apostles (special messengers, personally chosen representatives, of Christ), and [in fact] are not, and have found them to be liars and impostors”

Come on folks. Get your 2:2 on! I tut MirWeb: disapprove, reject these imposters. These who call themselves gifted by God – but are most definitely, biblically, not.
Don’t you fink out with Truth. Scripture says to test them, find-them-out. Look at their works. They are self-deceived fakes. Not gifted. Paul was very definite about this here also: 1 Timothy 6:3-5
What John says
We must get our 2:2 on! Don’t stand there all meek and mild, milk-toast types MirWeb: lacking in boldness or vigor.
The love of God constrains us to speak out
We are not finks MirWeb: rats, gossipers to call-out imposters. We are protectors of the flock. Don’t tolerate “liars and imposters”. Test them. Critically appraise them. They are fake. And, as you call them out… don’t forget to be loving in all it.
I recommend reading Rick Becker’s take on this.

Excerpt: “The apostle Paul described people during these last days as being lovers of self (2 Timothy 3:2) Sadly, this description does not merely apply to the world, but to millions in the visible church who reject sound teaching and follow false teachers to suit their own passions.
Paul warned the church in Corinth about the self appointed apostles that sought to seduce them, and issued a warning –
“For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.” (2 Corinthians 11:4 MSG)
“Another gospel” comes in many forms. In this article I’ll identify three man-centered teachings, that are components of “another gospel” – a NARcissistic gospel. I’ll provide quotes from false teachers such as Bill Johnson and John Bevere to prove that they are teaching these false doctrines, and conclude with quotes that will unequivocally reveal their narcissistic fruits.”

They set themselves up as a prophet, or apostle, or teacher, or, as a pew-sitter — say they have a special word from God for you. But that’s a crock. Test them by their works.
Excerpt from: Speaking with love about what is true and what is false
If we carefully read Scripture, we are sure to see horribly false teachings are rampant in many churches today. They form a NARcissistic gospel. It is incumbent upon us to warn others of the actual false teachers and their false teachings. Paul and John and Jude warned about this (2 Corinthians 11:4). Let’s examine where Jude urges us to “contend for the faith”, “fight strenuously for the faith”, defend the faith.
See in one link: 1 John 2:18-19, 1 Timothy 4:1, 1 Timothy 6:3-5, 1 Timothy 1:3-7
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 lamb,
don’t blindly follow some attractive,
exciting politician, political party,
friend, or teacher
who teaches things that are
not clearly supported in the Bible.”
It is happening, folks. The End Times apostasy in churches. Recognize it for what it is.

Revelation 2:2 says we should not tolerate those who call themselves “special messengers, personally chosen representatives, of Christ”. Do you?

About Being Apostate… following “another gospel”
First, Apostasy, then Antichrist, then the Rapture
Pete Garcia’s Post – Eyes Wide Shut…Clearly, the dismissal of Bible prophecy is a subject that has only grown in intensity in recent years
