“Warn a divisive person once, then a second time; and after that, have nothing more to do with them.”

Shabbat Shalom!

“For God’s grace, which brings deliverance, has appeared to all people.”

“He must hold firmly to the trustworthy Message that agrees with doctrine; so that by his sound teaching he will be able to exhort and encourage, and also to refute those who speak against it.”
Titus 1:9 CJB

There are a great many people out there who can share head knowledge of scripture that makes people feel good. They can play on your emotions, but they lack teaching sound doctrine!

“They claim to know God, but with their actions they deny Him. They are detestable and disobedient; they have proved themselves unfit to do anything good.”

“For the time coming when people will not have patience for sound teaching, but will cater to their passions and gather around themselves teachers who say whatever their ears itch to hear.”
2 Timothy 4:3 CJB

That time is now, we have teachers who have great influence and share nothing but foolishness! Unfortunately, people today don’t want to hear anything that makes them unhappy or challenges them! Few people want to hear sound teaching and many teachers are more than willing to accommodate that!

“Yes, they will stop listening to the truth, but will turn aside to follow myths.”
2 Timothy 4:4 CJB

What is sad is many so – called Bible teachers actually don’t teach systematic Bible studies. They may sound cool, but are foolish and are out of context! Many teachers don’t teach Bible prophecy, even though Paul prophesied here that in the time to come many will simply stop teaching!

“The time is coming, says Adonai Elohim, when I will send famine over the land, not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Adonai.”

Have a blessed day in Him!

“Moreover, understand this: in the Acharit-Hayamim (Last Days) will come trying times. People will be self – loving, money – loving, proud, arrogant, insulting, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, uncontrolled, brutal, hateful of good, traitors, headstrong, swollen with conceit, loving pleasure rather than God, as they retain the outer form of religion but deny its power. Stay away from these people!”
2 Timothy 3:1-5 CJB

As we look around us today, we can see we are living in the last days for sure! All we have to do is look at many teachers who may look and act religious, but are nothing more than what Paul explains here!

“Many false prophets will appear and fool many people.”
Matthew 24:11 CJB

We all need to realize there are a lot of phony and deceitful people out there! We need to focus less on them and focus more upon the LORD!

Today, understand we are living in times where seemingly godly people are really doing evil things! Should we get all caught up and distracted? No! We should be concerned and prayerful, but let’s focus on just following the LORD!
Have a blessed day!
