* Peter says, In the last days there will be false teachers in the churches and they will come making merchandise of you.




II Peter 2:1-3   But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.  And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.


Concerning the last days, Jesus warns:

Mt. 24:3-5  And as HE (Jesus) sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto HIM privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.  For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

They come to us saying they are pastors or other ministers of Jesus.  Others come saying they are Christians and they say "Jesus is Lord".

And because they say Jesus is the Christ, we will listen to them and they will deceive many.
