Many Christians today are greatly concerned about the rising influences of communism, humanism, secularism, and social injustice. Yet those evils, great as they are, do not together pose the threat to Christianity that false shepherds and pastors do. Throughout the history of redemption, the greatest threat to Godâs truth and Godâs work has been false prophets and teachers, because they propose to speak in His name. That is why the Lordâs most scathing denunciations were reserved for the false teachers of Israel, who claimed to speak and act for God but were liars. . . .
