The Fatal Results of False Teaching (7 of 10)
Pastor Richard Laue
II Peter 2:18-22
A seventeen-year-old boy from Detroit made this statement. "I rob banks because one of three things will happen to me. First I will be arrested and get three meals a day and a warm place to sleep. Second, I'll get away with the money. Third, a cop will kill me and put me out of my misery."
That young man's life is a result of false teaching. Our whole culture is listening to the wrong message and is leaning against the wrong wall.

(3) They are wells without water. (Verse 17)
(They are dried up and have nothing to offer. No matter what they say or do, they cannot quench real thirst.) They know nothing of the "Living Water" of which a man may drink and live forever.
(4) They are clouds driven by the wind. (Verse 17)
They blow to destroy; not to build. Their ...
