The Danger of False Teachers 2 Peter 2:1-11
Have you been aware of false teachers in the Christian church? What were they like? What things did they do?
Read Matthew 24:11. What did Jesus say would be true until He comes again?
Read 2 Peter 2:1-3. How is “the way of truth slandered” by false teachers? What does Peter say about them?
What do you think is the “sudden destruction” that will come upon them? Have you seen this happen to false teachers?
Read 2 Peter 2:4-8. What examples does Peter give of God’s judgment? What has God done with angels that have sinned? How does His dealing with the supernatural beings give us a sense of protection?
What made Noah and Lot righteous and godly? How did they respond to the wickedness around them? How does this guide us in our response to a sinful world?
Read 2 Peter 2:9-11. Peter gives a promise that God rescues the godly from trials. Read 1 Peter 1:6-7. Why does God allow us to face trials? How does He rescue us?
What does God do with the wicked? What two things is He especially hard on? Why do you think this is true?
This section is still focused on the false teachers. How does Peter compare their pride with supernatural beings?
Prayer
Pray for discernment to be aware of false teachers and not to get deceived by them.
Pray for those you know who are still slaves to sin that they may come to know Christ.
