Therefore, Beloved….Beware.


2 Peter 3:17 KJV
Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.

The Apostle warns these believers that it is possible to fall from their steadfastness. A believer growing in the Lord, confident of Christ's return and professing sound doctrine may potentially be led away with error.

It has happened that many a once good church has fallen from their steadfastness because the members were led away with the error of the wicked.
  • It is how people I love deeply have now fallen and allowed a once sound church to become apostate
  • It is how people who know better are led to follow a man who is not biblically qualified to be a pastor
  • It is how preachers who once proclaimed true doctrine can so quickly turn and preach a different message
No one is immune. Anyone who isn't on guard of such deception is likely to fall from his steadfastness. Therefore, beloved….beware.
