March 27, 2017 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 2:15–22
Today we continue from where we left off last time in our study in Second Peter. Here at the midway point of chapter two, Peter expresses some strong words regarding false teachers. He likens them to destructive animals that should be caught and destroyed.

Deluded by Desires - Part 2
March 24, 2017 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 2:10–14
Today on Bridging the Gap we return to our study of Second Peter, and continue to gain perspective on incomplete teaching of the Bible. Some people attempt to merely focus on God's love when they present the Gospel, but as we'll see today, before we can present God's love, we must understand His justice.
Deluded by Desires - Part 1
March 23, 2017 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 2:10–14
Today, Pastor Lloyd will take us back to the book of Second Peter as he continues his verse by verse study through this important letter. In chapter two, Peter speaks of the dangers of false doctrine - both for the giver and the receiver. Is there anything wrong with reading scripture and deciding for yourself exactly what it means? Is the Bible so vague that we all can just come to our own understanding of what God is saying to us? There are plenty of people who think that way, but to do so is dangerous - even deadly.

March 22, 2017 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 2:1–9
Today on Bridging the Gap, Pastor Lloyd Pulley will again remind us that we cannot "bury our heads in the sand" when it comes to false teaching. Sadly, many people today question whether false teachers even exist. It happens more often than you may think. Witness people like David Koresh and Jim Jones. Obviously, the results can be catastrophic.
Deliverance from Destructive Doctrines - Part 1
March 21, 2017 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 2:1–9
We all know about false teachers in the Bible, but do we need to worry about them today? Many people think not, but human beings have proven over the years that they have difficulty discerning the truth from lies. That’s why today’s false teachers are just as dangerous as the ones we read about in the Bible. Pastor Lloyd Pulley is taking us through the book of Second Peter, and today we get an important warning about false teachers. There are plenty of them today. just as there were two thousand years ago!
