Let me share an important truth that I shared in Lies in Disguise, referring to Acts 20:20–32:
“Paul had proclaimed the whole will of God, the full counsel, the complete plan and purpose of God. He warned the Ephesians that people would distort the things he’d taught them. In fact, there would be some people inside their own fellowship who would do so.”
“This warning was true in Paul’s day and it’s true in ours. The
only way we can avoid half-truth teachings is by carefully studying what Scripture actually teaches.” from the Conclusion of Lies in Disguise
Dear Christians, we need to make sure that we're only listening to teachers, preachers, authors and Bible study leaders who have carefully and accurately studied God's Word. And even after we learn to trust a teacher, we must still continue to compare what they teach with what we read and study in Scripture.
Our faith is not built on the words of men and women. It is built on the flawless, living, perfect, and trustworthy Word of God (Proverbs 30:5; Hebrews 4:12; Psalm 19:7).
Details matter to the Lord and they should matter to us as well (Luke 16:10).
False teachings have always captured the minds and souls of the undiscerning. Let's make sure we are correctly handling God's Word and correctly sharing it with others (2 Timothy 2:15).
Accuracy is an important aspect of respect for God's Word and a necessary element of living for Christ.
