Recognizing and Resisting Subtle False Teaching

False teaching does not always openly deny the gospel. It can sound biblical while quietly distorting the truth of God's Word. In this episode, Dave Jenkins examines Acts 17:11 and the example of the Bereans, who eagerly received teaching while searching the Scriptures to test what they heard. Biblical discernment is neither cynical nor gullible. It is the loving and necessary practice of measuring every spiritual claim by God's sufficient and authoritative Word. Christians are called to know Scripture deeply, evaluate teaching carefully, and remain connected to a biblically faithful local church. The best defense against false teaching is not becoming an expert in every error. It is becoming so grounded in the true gospel of Jesus Christ that error is recognized when it appears.
