But do we seriously take heed to such warnings? Oh for sure, we have identified
the Jehovah Witnesses and the Mormons as being cults, but if that is the extent of
what we think the threat of false teachers is, then we have already been deceived.
Satan is much more clever in his methods than the obvious errors of the above
mentioned cults. Frankly, we probably would be utterly horrified to know how often
we have unsuspectingly given the right hand of fellowship to a wolf in sheep's
clothing.
Fortunately, our merciful God has not left seekers of truth defenseless in this great
spiritual battle. Deception need not happen to any believer as the Word of God is
quite specific on the tactics and teachings of false prophets. Let us highlight a few
of these below.

DO NOT BE DECEIVED!
by George Sturm
One of the clearest warnings given in the New
Testament concerns the proliferation of false prophets
and teachers who will lead many astray. Disguising
themselves as trusted Christian brethren - wolves in
sheep's clothing - these deceivers secretly introduce
destructive heresies. Unnoticed, they skillfully attack,
ravage, and eventually scatter the sheep (Acts 20:29).
Such deception happened in the early Church era, and it
continues today among unsuspecting souls, even on
the mission field.
