2 Peter 2:1-22 ~ False Teachers

Text: 2 Peter 2:1-22

Preacher: Rev. Greg Brower

In Peter’s second letter, he is once again writing to the churches of Asia-Minor, but this time he does so as a final farewell. He knows his life is drawing to a close and so he urges them to both keep growing in the faith and to be on their guard for false teachers, to stay true to Jesus and reject the lies of cheap grace. This Sunday as we continue our study of this letter, Peter warns us about the dangers of false teachers and highlights three signs of false teachers: they don’t follow the teachings of Jesus, they engage in depraved conduct, and they are greedy. As a result, the truth of Jesus is brought into disrepute.
