    Beware Of Ravenous Wolves Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 23, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,306 views

    Things are not always as they seem; and Jesus shares what to look for in identifying false prophets. These are false teachers, ravenous wolves, who seek to feed and save themselves, rather than feed and protect the flock.

    Allow me to begin with an illustration: As Little Red Riding Hood is heading to her grandmother’s house; a wolf comes along and finds out where she lives. He travels ahead, enters the house, and eats the grandmother! When Little Red Riding Hood arrives, she notices her grandmother’s unusual ...read more

    Rebuke Hirelings

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on May 27, 2023
     | 1,077 views

    This message aims to proclaim that hirelings are not true shepherds.

    Key Scripture: "The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it" (John 10:12, NIV). PRAYER – Father God, we humble ourselves and come once again thanking ...read more

    The first letter of John was written to Christians to help them have joy, overcome sin, recognize false teachers, and to be assured of their eternal life. To do that, believers had to recognize the reality of Jesus and a relationship with Him.

    Get Real! 1 John 1:1-10 Slide Have you ever witnessed people who appeared to be pretenders in the Christian faith? Their words don’t match what they say they say they believe Or Maybe what they say they believe doesn’t match what the Bible says, yet they say they are ...read more

     | 2,932 views

    Of all the problems in the church at Corinth, what was the first problem the Apostle Paul chose to address? Immorality, a false gospel, getting drunk at Communion, licentiousness? Nope! Division! Disunity! Why is this so important?

    Did you know that I was personally baptized by none other than Charles Swindoll? Perhaps I should say Dr. Charles Swindoll! Yes, the same Charles Swindoll who is daily on Christian Radio and is the founder of the Insight for Living radio broadcast, who has written about 70 very popular Christian ...read more

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Oct 7, 2025
     | 298 views

    The Apostle Paul uses irony to engage the Corinthians’ attention, sarcasm to sting their heart and emotions, and satire to convince the Corinthians that false teachers have been misleading them and they are believing so-called truth about the Gospel that is not true at all.

    The leadership of false prophets.

    The Pastor has been talking a lot about searching within ourselves to weed out the me part of our spiritual walk, why do you think that is?

    Paul repeated his caution against false teachers. They teach the wrong doctrine, driven by wrong motivation, produce the wrong conduct and seek gain from their belief.

    1 Timothy 6:3-5 The Truth Matters RECAP: Paul has been talking about relating to different groups in the church (5:1-6:2). o Treating older men as fathers, older women as mothers, younger men as brothers, and women as sisters. o Caring for the widows properly. ...read more

    Christ delivers a message to those who are Christian in name only. Being neither zealous for good works nor orthodox in their doctrine, they are lukewarm and sickening to Christ.

    George Barna makes a living through surveys. What makes him unique is that his surveys are on exclusively Christian topics. Although he does poll populations at large, he also does polling on those who profess to be Christian. For millennia, there have been standard benchmarks of orthodoxy. Yet, as ...read more

    How false teachers within the church attempt to demote Christ.

    The Demotion of Christ In Matthew 16, Jesus asked His disciples who people say that He is. Some claimed he was a teacher, a prophet and a number of other possible theories.
