Don’t Walk Out on God

7There are a lot of smooth-talking charlatans loose in the world who refuse to believe that Jesus Christ was truly human, a flesh-and-blood human being. Give them their true title: Deceiver! Antichrist!G3754G4183G4108G1525G1519G2889G3588G3670G3361G2424G5547G2064G1722G4561G3778G2076G4108G2532G500 8And be very careful around them so you don't lose out on what we've worked so diligently in together; I want you to get every reward you have coming to you.G991G1438G3363G622G3363G3739G2038G235G618G4134G3408 9Anyone who gets so progressive in his thinking that he walks out on the teaching of Christ, walks out on God. But whoever stays with the teaching, stays faithful to both the Father and the Son.G3956G3845G2532G3306G3361G1722G1322G5547G2192G3756G2316G3306G1722G1322G5547G3778G2192G2532G3962G2532G5207 10If anyone shows up who doesn't hold to this teaching, don't invite him in and give him the run of the place.G1536G2064G1536G5100G4314G5209G2532G5342G3756G5026G1322G2983G846G3361G1519G3614G2532G3361G3004G846G5463 11That would just give him a platform to perpetuate his evil ways, making you his partner.G1063G3004G846G5463G2841G846G4190G2041 12I have a lot more things to tell you, but I'd rather not use paper and ink. I hope to be there soon in person and have a heart-to-heart talk. That will be far more satisfying to both you and me.G2192G4183G1125G5213G1014G3756G1223G5489G2532G3188G235G1679G2064G4314G5209G2532G2980G4750G4314G4750G2443G2257G5479G5600G4137 13Everyone here in your sister congregation sends greetings.G5043G4675G1588G79G782G4571G281
