Good Monday morning. Substitutes abound, but there is only one Christ. False teachers do not bear fruit of God's Spirit. Rather they "walk according to the flesh....and despise authority." They are bold, egotistical, and given to greed. Ruled by their own desires, they exploit people by using deceptive words.
The Bible says these wayward spiritual leaders are headed for destruction and will take many unsuspecting and non discerning people with them. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, rather than pursuing personal gain, laid down His life for His sheep. God does not want anyone to be misled by false teaching. He wants us to be aware of those who deceive us, and to follow Him because He is the true Shepherd of our souls.
( Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. Matthew 7:15 ).
Have a blessed day.
