Wolves have such a close resemblance to dogs—
It is therefore no surprise that we see false prophets as our friends
Without realizing the danger of the friendship
Dogs have often being referred to as a man’s best friend
However men in the church have made the wolf their best friend
We must speak up

Every disagreement is not an occasion for open combat
Many disagreements are petty and foolish--
No one really enjoys conflict--
As saints we are not after conflict
However when an important biblical truth is under assault and
When people’s lives are at stake because
The Gospel massage has being altered by false teachers--
It is then important that we speak up--
We must fight the good fight
If the deity of Christ is denied by some
Then we must speak up

Today false prophets roam the church
They create a Jesus of their own imagination
Rather than present the one in the Gospels—
False prophets/teachers pervert the Grace of God and
So new churches are set up for the wrong reasons—
They are set up because a man wants his own show

Jesus spoke up against the Pharisees
There was simply no way for
Jesus to avoid conflict with the Pharisees

The church building is a battlefield for wolves
Their competition is severe—
When their pact grows too big
They start to kill each other [gossip]—
Wolves are only concerned about their popularity
Sadly, they also destroy many innocent lives
Wolves enjoy controlling women
A wolf wants his pact to be the greatest

Jesus dealt with false teachers
Today we want to be their friends--
Jesus attitude toward false doctrine should be ours
God will give us the strength and
The clarity to identify the wolves in the church—
The wolves in the church building should not intimate us
When we enter the territory of a wolf
We must enter with the power of Jesus Christ—
Wolves also use the name of Jesus
Therefore, it is vital that we enter the battlefield of the wolves
With the power of the Holy Spirit
