In this powerful sermon on 2 Corinthians 11, we dive into the critical issue of false teaching and its impact on the church, both in Paul’s time and today. Join us as we explore how the Apostle Paul confronted the false teachers in Corinth and learn how to guard our hearts against deceptive influences in modern Christianity. This message will equip you to discern truth, stay anchored in the gospel, and grow in simple devotion to Jesus.

Key Points from 2 Corinthians 11:

False teaching corrupts simple devotion (2 Cor 11:1-4): Paul warns that false teachers can lead us away from pure devotion to Christ, just as the serpent deceived Eve.

False teaching gives little priority to humility (2 Cor 11:5-12): Unlike the proud “super-apostles,” Paul’s ministry was marked by humility and self-sacrifice.

False teaching is a work of Satan (2 Cor 11:13-15): Satan disguises himself as an angel of light, and his servants pose as ministers of righteousness.

False teaching has horrible consequences (2 Cor 11:16-21): False teachers enslave, exploit, and abuse believers, causing spiritual harm.

False teaching misunderstands suffering (2 Cor 11:22-33): Paul boasts in his sufferings, not worldly success, as proof of his authentic ministry.

Six Warnings About Dangerous Teachings Today:

Overemphasis on the Supernatural: Elevating visions, dreams, or “words from God” above Scripture can lead us away from simple devotion to Jesus.

Celebrity Culture: Prioritizing charisma, popularity, or social media presence over character and spiritual integrity is a growing danger in the church.

Anti-Church Sentiment: The “just me and Jesus” mindset dismisses the importance of the local church, which Jesus loves despite its imperfections.

Self-Help Gospel: Blending pop psychology with Christianity, this teaching focuses on personal fulfillment rather than Christ, the cross, and repentance.

Deconstructionism: Moving away from biblical authority, this approach treats Scripture as optional or relative, undermining core Christian doctrines.

Prosperity Gospel: This false teaching promises health, wealth, and success through faith, ignoring the biblical role of suffering in the Christian life.

🌿 Palm Sunday: The King Is Coming | Zechariah 9:9

In this message, Pastor Pat unpacks the powerful truth that Jesus is our King—righteous, victorious, and humble. He didn’t come to conquer Rome, but to conquer sin, death, and hell on our behalf.

We explore why this moment matters so deeply, how it was prophesied to the very day in Daniel 9:25, and what it means for us today to rejoice and receive Jesus as King.

What does true spiritual authority look like? In this powerful message from 2 Corinthians 10, we dive into the Apostle Paul’s defense against critics who attacked his appearance, ministry, and legitimacy. Facing false “super-apostles” misleading the Corinthian church, Paul reveals the heart of godly leadership: Christlike humility, spiritual warfare, and a commitment to building up—not tearing down.

Join us as we explore:

How Paul fought spiritual battles with God’s weapons, not worldly tactics (vv. 1-6)

The marks of authentic authority: consistency, submission to Christ, and edification (vv. 7-11)

How to use authority within God’s limits for the gospel’s sake (vv. 12-18)

This isn’t just Paul’s story—it’s a challenge for us today. Are we stewarding our influence for God’s glory or our own? Perfect for anyone seeking biblical insight on leadership, church health, and standing firm in faith.

Key Verses: 2 Corinthians 10:4-5, 17-18 (NLT) – “We use God’s mighty weapons… If you want to boast, boast only about the Lord.”
