WHO'S GUARDING YOUR FAITH?
This month's teaching brings stern advice from the Apostle Paul to his son in the Gospel to maintain the Faith and continue to love (2 Tim. 1:13-14).
My research and experiences over the years has led me to question the basis of where the body of Christ is concerning sound biblical teaching. We are faced with dangerous theological distortions all the time from various sources. The best way to administer poison is to hide it in something good. So, false teachers are not standing up waving a flag saying they are teaching false doctrine. No, they are mixing truths, lowing standards, and secretly denying major doctrines of the Faith.
The Word of God is said to be "nourishment, energy, and development" in truth. Any sort of theological poison morsels that are planted in the midst of a solid base of truth will upset the balance. We must be on guard by studying (2 Tim 2:14-15), praying (Eph 6:18), and trusting God (Heb 11:6).
When I researched what we term, "The early or primitive church," I was amazed at the amount of cautions and warnings regarding false teachers. They were constantly commanded to guard their faith and salvation. We are also challenged to build ourselves up through prayer and discernment.
