Join us as we discuss how false teaching can create a hindrance to our fellowship with God, how to test for false teaching, how we are to reflect Christ's love and have no fear of death or judgment.

Send us a textMost 'churches', and indeed their members have today deviated from the faith handed down by the Saviour and His trusted Apostles.  For decades many men and women have risen proclaiming themselves to be servants of God; a collection of the downright crazy to the materially greedy, to the deceived.  Their followers love them, with a view of the only Saviour and Lord as subordinate to their human leaders.  As a result there are many terrible winds of teaching that are anything but what the Holy Bible says, but people believe their leaders have new revelations from God!There are no new revelations, and the Lord Jesus Christ has NOT changed a letter of His written Word.  What hurts the true believer who believes, trusts and obeys the written Word of God in this age, is that many professing Christians are headed for eternal damnation to hell, because of their love for their human leaders over and above their love for the only Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ.There is only ONE way to be a Christian!

The post Exposing False Teaching: A Biblical Guide to Discerning Truth from Error appeared first on Straight Truth Podcast.

This episode examines how false teaching arises wherever Scripture is distorted or removed from its rightful place of authority. Drawing from the errors of the word of faith movement and the claims of the prosperity gospel, the discussion shows how biblical discernment begins with a right view of God's Word. When believers interpret Scripture in context and submit to its inerrant and sufficient truth, they are protected from error, strengthened in their faith, and anchored in sound doctrine. This conversation calls Christians to embrace a Word-centered life and to test every message by the Scriptures.

Differences in belief can feel bigger than they are — but sometimes they are truly big. What separates personal opinion from soul-damaging theology?

Ephesians 4:14-16 One of the primary ways followers of Jesus must mature is in their ability to discern what is true from what is false, especially when it comes to the teachings they hear. Confidence doesn't come from being deeply familiar with the alternatives and imposters, but from intimate connection to the authentic.

How many times should a person be baptized to demonstrate he is on the right path to salvation? How does a church avoid apostasy? What do I have to do to have a right relationship with God? How do you explain Joshua 10:12-14, when the sun stood still? The Jehovah's Witnesses claim Christ could not be God, because he is called the Mediator, and a Mediator must be separate - is this true? Does Psalm 146:3-4 indicate that there is no conscious existence after death? Does Romans 8:17 teach that one day we will become exalted gods, like the Mormons believe? How important is the choice of who I marry? Is there hope for me to have a good marriage if I come from a broken home? What are key things I need to agree on with a future spouse? Does Colossians 1:18 teach that Jesus was born again in hell after suffering there for three days, like the Word of Faith teachers teach? Is it exclusivism to claim that Christ is the only way to salvation? Is there life anywhere other than Earth? What is the difference between Christian meditation and mystical meditation? Should I allow Jehovah's Witnesses into my residence? Can the Holy Spirit be a person since He fills a person? What is the difference between a Hebrew, Israelite, and a Jew? What is wrong with the teachings of Christian Science? Listen as Pastor/Dr. David Murphy discusses these and other listener questions.

A new MP3 sermon from Founders Baptist Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Exposing False Teaching: A Biblical Guide to Discerning Truth from Error Subtitle: 01 Straight Truth Podcast Speaker: Richard Caldwell Jr. Broadcaster: Founders Baptist Church Event: Podcast Date: 11/21/2025 Bible: Matthew 7:15; Acts 17:11 Length: 35 min.

We live in the information age. The internet is full of voices, advice, and increasingly theological teaching and commentary. Every day, we're forced to evaluate what is true and who is worth listening to. In our conversation today, Pastor Jim explores the necessity of believers learning to recognize false teaching and why, as leaders, it's one of our primary jobs. 

Where do you turn for wisdom in a confusing world? False teachings, whether from culture, politics, or our own ideas, twist our understanding of right and wrong. Only by building our lives on the true gospel can we find our way through a confusing world, live as God wants, and join in God's ongoing work of restoration.

Jim Osman examines false teachers through an exposition of 2 Peter 2:1-3, warning believers against three critical dangers. False teachers secretly introduce destructive heresies into the church, not announcing their deception but creeping in quietly while using Christian language and claiming orthodox beliefs. These false teachers promote destructive doctrines that damn unbelievers and render Christians useless and unfruitful. Their depraved desires are marked by sensuality, and their deserved doom brings swift destruction upon them.Believers must beware lest they be deceived by their teachings, seduced by their lusts, or exploited by their greed. The sermon emphasizes that sound doctrine and godly character must go together, as false teachers lack both biblical authority and moral integrity, thereby exerting a destructive influence. ★ Support this podcast ★

Why does doctrine matter? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper shows from Galatians 1:6–10 that those who reject the true gospel reject God himself.

Recognizing deception, submitting to truth, and walking together in faith.The discussion centered around false teaching, legalism, and the nature of the flesh, with emphasis on the need for discernment and submission to God's truth. The conversation explored how legalism originates from false teaching and how the enemy uses deception to attack the character of God revealed through Christ.The group reflected on how each of the Gospels presents a different facet of Christ—His humanity, servitude, genealogy, and divinity—and how understanding these aspects strengthens faith and guards against error. They discussed that while the enemy cannot stop God's redemptive plan, false teaching can distort how believers experience grace.We emphasized the importance of humility, submission, and maintaining unity within the body, explaining that proper teaching protects believers from the influence of the flesh. The group also discussed the balance between resting in God's will and remaining actively submitted to His leading through the Holy Spirit.The meeting concluded with reflections on community, the importance of prayer for one another, and future direction—including prayer for God's guidance about a permanent meeting place and potential radio outreach to extend their ministry.Themes: Discerning false teaching and legalism Submitting the will to God for true rest Unity and humility within the assembly Dependence on the Holy Spirit for understanding The divine purpose of community and prayerScripture References: 2 Corinthians 4:4Reflection Question: Where might I still be striving in my own strength instead of resting in the finished work of Christ?

Exploring God's sufficiency.The discussion centered on the importance of hope and discernment in light of false teaching. The message emphasized that God's love and grace are fully sufficient for believers, removing the need to strive for perfection and instead inviting rest in His love. The group reflected on the simplicity and completeness of faith in Christ and how resting in His grace brings peace and assurance.Themes: The sufficiency of God's grace and love Dangers of false teaching and striving for perfection Rest and assurance found in faith alone Reflection Question: How can I rest more deeply in God's grace and share His hope with others around me?

In Yesterday's Lesson for Today, Dr. Michael Youssef urges believers to reject the shallow comforts of modern Christianity and return to the unchanging truth of God's Word. Preaching from Acts 20, he shows how the Apostle Paul lived with unwavering obedience, bold witness, and tear-filled urgency. Paul's life was a living sermon—his walk matched his talk. Dr. Youssef warns that wolves are not only outside the church but sitting within, seeking to devour the undiscerning. We must be vigilant—over our homes, pulpits, and hearts. The Gospel never changes, no matter how loud the world shouts. Now is the time to repent, intercede, and stand firm—for ourselves and for the next generation.

In a world where it's easy to find someone with a comfortable opinion rather than facing hard truths, it's more important than ever to identify and flee from any voice that contradicts Scripture. This week, Kylen Perry walks us through 2 Timothy 3:1-9 to remind us not only to skillfully avoid the dangers of false teachers, but also to closely follow the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

In Who Is the Unknown God?, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the idolatry of modern culture with the boldness of the Apostle Paul in Acts 17. Preaching in a city filled with gods, Paul exposes the emptiness of false worship and proclaims the risen Christ as the only Savior and Judge. Dr. Youssef warns that idols are not just carved statues—they are anything that takes the place of the one true God. From false religion to pleasure, pride, and power, every idol will be judged. God is calling all people to repent, for a day of judgment is coming. This message calls believers to intercede, to proclaim Truth with urgency, and to live unashamed of the Gospel in a world darkened by deception.

The post Know the Word; Discern False Teaching appeared first on Redemption's Hill Church.

Irreverent babble leads only to more ungodliness. John Piper warns against teaching that is as poisonous as it is empty.

The Internet is full of different teachers and various doctrines. So, how do we discern false teachers from true, and good doctrine from bad?

As long as we sincerely love God, does it really matter if we have wrong doctrine? Pastor John shows what's at stake in our knowledge of God and his ways.
