False teachers

[missmuffet]

Romans 16:17 

Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them. For those who are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by smooth words and flattering speech deceive the hearts of the simple.

 

I am seeing a lot of this on Worthy. 

 

Matthew 7:16

Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them.  For those who are such do not serve our Lord ^[Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by smooth words and flattering speech deceive the hearts of the simple.

We are responsible to share the true literal Word of God. We are not responsible for people's response to the good news.

Reminds me a lot of Jesus’s own teachings about the Pharisees 

Matthew 6:2
Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward

And he would go on to give other examples

i heard a pastor say 

“ man I love when people say hey great sermon!, but it’s bittersweet he laughs I’m getting my rewards now”” I feel cheated out of my reward in heaven”

it’s like when people donate to a church or cause and demand a big bronze plate with their name on it, they are already getting their rewards now

same as these pastors that live in multimillion dollar mansions, they get their rewards now instead of in heaven , not unlike the Pharisees who got their rewards in full already

This probably sounds like a daft question, hey ho, I don’t mind looking daft,😂

What do you mean when you say, We are not responsible for people’s response to the good news ?

Not quite with you, thank you,🙏

We are to move on when our truth of the Gospel and what is literally printed in the Holy Bible is not welcome. We don't argue. Those who have seen the truth and their minds and eyes have digested it are responsible.

I thought a thread for 'False Teachers' had already been created? 🤷 (or was it under a different heading?).

Good then we are aware that false teaching is being posted on Worthy. 

We need to know and study the Word of God so well that we know a false teacher or counterfeit when we see it. We need to pray to God as we study His Word to give us the truth. How He wants those words to be engraved in our minds. Not just give any meaning to God's Word or our own meaning.

@missmuffet there is another thread created only just recently by @Rosie1jack2pauline3 quite a few folk have contributed to it already. 

It's under exactly the same heading/thread title.

Problem is who gets to decide what is false and what is not.
