FALSE TEACHERS INSIDE THE CHURCH

2 Corinthians 11:13-15

I. The Heretic.

2 Peter 2:1 AV

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

II. The Charlatan.

1 Timothy 6:3–5 AV

If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

III. The False Prophet.

1 John 4:1 AV

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

IV. The Abuser.

Jude 4 AV

For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

V. The Divider.

Jude 18–19 AV

How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

VI. The Speculator.

Titus 3:9 AV

But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

VII. The Tickler.

2 Timothy 4:3–4 AV

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
