Danger Ahead

2 Timothy 3:1-9

November 11, 2017 • Philip De Courcy

Danger does not come from censorship outside the church, but compromise inside the church. It is striking, isn't it, to realize that the Gospel's greatest threat will not come from confirmed pagans or hostile governments but from false religious teachers who resist God. The devil has always tried to beat the church by joining the church. He's a deceiver. He comes in the guise of an angel of light. He will prove indeed to be a threat to the church from within the church by using false teachers and teaching as spiritual saboteurs. We must be alert of the apostasy that will involve their creed, their conduct and their captives. We must avoid it at all costs. We must guard the deposit, repelling and expelling falsehood. This is something we must do and be willing to do.
