Michael Houke 17 April at 13:03 . The Apostle Paul showed absolutely no tolerance for false teachers. Never did he quote them. Never did he bid them well. In his Roman letter, he told believers to mark and avoid such men. In his letter to the Galatians, he desired that false teachers were “cut off” to use his words. In that letter, he also said that men preaching a false gospel should be “anathema” (damned). He also stated that you may eat with unbelievers, but not with those who claimed to be “brethren” who were engaged in certain sinful practices. John, the disciple beloved to Jesus, stated that a false teacher should not be received into one’s property or edifice and that believers should not even greet them, because doing so would make the believer a part of the false teacher’s evil deeds. Jude and Peter both had scathing remarks for false teachers. Many Scriptures deal with separation from false teachers and how they were to be treated. Jesus spent about half of his ministry countering the attacks and questions of the religious leaders. Ultimately, it was the “religion crowd” of his day that schemed to have him arrested, tried illegally, and crucified. Least we never forget
