先警告信徒並引導他們接受真理。
The effect of false teachers is as predictable as it is destructive: “they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach” (Titus 1:11). In those early days of Christianity, most churches met in private homes, so Paul is possibly describing whole congregations. But in large churches, heretics also infiltrate into the homes of likely targets. Paul warns in 2 Timothy 3:6 of those “who creep into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and led astray by various passions.” The charlatans of Paul’s time were known for accumulating large followers of women, from whom they were suspected of receiving sexual favors. Through the Internet and other media today, it is easy for false teaching to spread into the ears of all Christians, unless they are forewarned and guided into truth.
假教師的影響是可以預見的,同時也是具有破壞性的:“這些人的口總要堵住。他們因貪不義之財,將不該教導的教導人,敗壞人的全家。”(多 1:11)。在基督教的早期,大多數教會都是在私人家裡聚會,所以保羅可能是在描述整個會眾。但在大型教堂中,異端分子也會滲透到可能目標的家中。保羅在提摩太后書 3:6 中警告那些“那偷進人家,牢籠無知婦女的,正是這等人。這些婦女擔負罪惡,被各樣的私慾引誘。”。保羅時代的江湖騙子以擁有大量女性追隨者而聞名,他們被懷疑從女性那裡接受性恩惠。今天,通過互聯網和其他媒體,錯誤的教導很容易傳播到所有基督徒的耳中,除非他們得到預先警告並引導他們接受真理。
