Famous False Christian Teachers & Preachers

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1

Just a word of introduction

Not every doctrine of the false Christian teachers and preachers mentioned here is erroneous or heretical. In fact, most false teachers preach a lot of biblical truth blended in with a lot of false doctrine or they twist scriptures and take them out of context or take verses literally that were meant to be figurative expressions of speech. However, the common errors of these teachers include ecumenism (fellowshipping with with false teachers) and blending psychology with biblical Christianity. Also, many of these teachers are reluctant to speak out against error and against false churches, false preachers and false practices. Other common problems are that the preachers preach a false (synergistic) gospel that gives unsaved man credit for being better than God says he is (and not as spiritually dead as God says he is). In addition, many of these false teachers are afraid to call the Roman Catholic Church a false church that promotes a false, works-based gospel.

“Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” 1 Thessalonians 5:21

Conclusion

The conclusion here is simple. Test the spirits, prove all things, and be like the Bereans of Acts chapter 17 verse 11, who didn’t even take the apostle Paul at his word, without first checking the Scriptures. — RM Kane

“These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:11
