In Matthew 7:15, Jesus issues a warning against false prophets. This warning is applicable to the church today and was echoed by the Apostles to the churches they planted.
How can we as believers take steps to be on guard against the false prophets and teachers that Satan sends into the church to try and destroy it?
Believers must be vigilant in studying the Scriptures and continually checking the teaching they sit under against the Word of God. By disciplining themselves in this way, believers will be prepared to “cry wolf” if/when the time comes.
