| | | | | Be On Your Guard – Toni M. Babcock
The Apostle Peter wrote to believers that they should be on their guard, and not be led astray with the error of the lawless (cf. 2 Peter 3:17 CSB). For, “there were indeed false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you” (cf. 2 Peter 2:1a CSB).
He instructs believers instead to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” (cf. 2 Peter 3:18a CSB).
In chapter 2, Peter describes warning signs to watch out for which include: heretical teachings that deny Christ, depraved behavior, maligning the truth, and greedy exploitation. He describes false teachers as being bold, arrogant, ‘delighting in their deceptions’, spewing slanders, having ‘eyes full of adultery that never stop looking for sin’. They are ‘springs without water’, ‘mists driven by a storm’, ‘boastful’ and ‘slaves of corruption’ even as they promise their hearers ‘freedom.’
It shouldn’t be too difficult to spot the error of the lawless when they mingle among you. They are “spots and blemishes, delighting in their deceptions when they feast with you,” (2 Peter 2:13b CSB). Can they be saved? Only God knows.
Meanwhile, only go so far when arguing your case with those who live in error. Trust God to go further with them, “For the word of God is living and effective and sharper than any double-edged sword, penetrating as far as the separation of soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” (Hebrews 4:12 CSB)
Remember, God is first and foremost concerned with the sinner’s heart. Behavior changes when the heart changes. This is why it isn’t wise to engage in endless arguments with false teachers over what deeds are good or evil in God’s sight, while the condition of the heart is not addressed. Once the heart is transformed, all lies and deceptions fall away. Spread the good news and pray for those who need to experience the transforming power of the gospel. Toni is author of Reflections from the Heart, in Light of the Gospel of Jesus, and The Stone Writer. Contact |

"After reading your book, and being that I’m a cop, the evidence was compelling so the choice became easy. Thank you for being a big part of saving my life and seeing the truth about Jesus. My life has drastically changed for the better!!! I’ve handed out many of your books already, and can hardly wait to give more away! Thank you. And God bless!"
"For anyone on the fence, backsliding, or doubtful this book clarifies misunderstandings, perceived contradictions, and outright lies. I was led to read this book at a time when I thought I was over Jesus, but truth defeat lies every time and never forsakes the believer.”
"If false, Christianity is an irrelevant hoax. If true, Christianity is the most important fact for every human being. This little book concisely shows you why Christianity is true and what that means for you. No fluff, just the facts!" Dr. Frank Turek author/co-author of I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist

"Michael, I have ordered books a couple times now and have had nothing but good responses from the inmates that read it. I had one approach me with tears in his eyes thanking me for giving him a book that answered questions he has always wondered about regarding the Bible. I had another one ask me for another copy so he could mail it to his family to read. Another one told me that everyone in his pod was passing it around reading it, the cover made people ask what he was reading. He then asked if I could get more. I would like twenty more books please. It's nice to be able to give a concise apologetic at an affordable price." Gordon, a prison guard who has ordered books."
An in-depth study of the factual evidence leads a person to realize how little faith they need to believe, while it gives them great faith at the same time.
