Chris.
There are some false prophets and teachers who have made themselves a nuisance to God’s People. Churches have been divided and good people have had their relationships and even their marriages broken by such people. We have to resist these people strongly, not just through spiritual discernment but also by actually teaching the Truth of God’s Word.
