False Prophets and Teachers

1 But ^gfalse prophets also arose among the people, ^hjust as there will be false teachers among you, who will ⁱsecretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master ^jwho bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth ^kwill be blasphemed. 3 And ^lin their greed they will exploit you ^mwith false words. ⁿTheir condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.

1 John 4:1

Test the Spirits
