About this listen

Peter warns believers that false teachers among you will secretly introduce destructive heresies into the church. Jim Osman introduces 2 Peter 2:1-3, explaining how this chapter connects with Peter's teaching on Scripture's sufficiency in chapter 1 and the apostolic witness in chapter 3. Throughout Israel's history, false prophets arose among God's people, leading them astray from the truth. Similarly, false teachers among you will deny the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. Many will follow their sensuality, thereby maligning the way of truth. In their greed, these deceivers will exploit believers with false words. Peter uses Scripture's harshest language to describe false teachers among you because their deceptive doctrines, depraved desires, and deserved doom pose the greatest threat to Christ's church. Believers must remain vigilant, identifying false teachers among you by examining their teaching, character, and the judgment Scripture promises them.
