Beware
THE VERB "BEWARE" is used in the New Testament 31 times...
That in itself shows that there is constant danger in living the Christian life.
The prophet Ezekiel warns of the same danger mentioned here. God's people were in danger of being over run by physical enemies because of their sins. God informs the prophet He is calling Ezekiel to the task of warning people. They needed to repent and return their commitment to God.
The same spiritual danger is confronting every child of God. It is true that false teachers often present themselves as being very faithful to God and His Word, but--as Jesus Himself said, "You will know them by their fruits" ( Matthew 7:16).
Each of us must be on guard lest we led astray by what may sound good and appealing, but we must constantly be aware of what is being said. We must carefully study what is being said in light of the written word of God which is only found in the Bible. Leon Crouch
