Recognize a False Teacher (Titus 1:10-12)
- False teachers often superimpose their authority over God’s authority.
- Too many people read the Bible as a yearbook – they only read the pages that highlight themselves.
- False teachers will say anything, do anything, and avoid anything to benefit their agenda.
Rebuke a False Teacher (Titus 1:13-14)
- If confrontation is the means, restoration is the goal.
- Seek to win the person – not the argument.
- Teach others to avoid man-made superstitions and to embrace God-given revelation.
Redeem a False Teacher (Titus 1:15-16)
- God’s truth is the only force powerful enough to combat Satan’s lies.
- You can’t clean up the inside by simply shining up the outside.
- Good works from a bad heart are actually bad works.
- How well can you discern God’s truth from error?
- My standard will be inside me, beside me, behind me, or above me.
