False Teachers: Protecting the Church from Deception - 2 Peter 2:1-22 | November 28, 2025

Join Pastor Stephen Mizell, Pastor Jay Rivenbark, and Pastor Alyssa Bream from Open Door Church as they tackle the critical topic of false teaching in today's church, exploring 2 Peter 2's warnings about spiritual deception and how believers can develop biblical discernment.

Scripture Focus: 2 Peter 2:1-22 - Peter warns about false teachers who distort grace, deny Christ's lordship, and exploit believers for personal gain.

In This Episode:

• The difference between bad theology and intentional false teaching
• Warning signs: greed, manipulation, and denying Christ's authority
• Why communities seek teachers who tell them what they want to hear
• The vital role of local church community in developing discernment

Key Quote: "The danger that I see in the church is that we classify everybody who we disagree with as false teachers, when I am not convinced that that's even their intent. I think false teaching is intentional."
