- As Paul nears the end of his life and ministry, he warns the church leaders in Ephesus that false teachers (wolves) will arise from even among their own number. In this episode, we look into Paul's presentation to the church in Ephesus about how to identify them, avoid them, and keep watch over yourselves. False teachers wander away from revealed truth, true teachers stand firm. As do all Christians who keep watch over their faith.

Absolutely loving this series! I look forward to each episode!
@@twogirl91 Same here!
Lord's blessings.
I found you through a Christian meme page on Facebook XD I really look forward to your videos each week. This content is something I've been looking for but I seem to only find church history info from a catholic slant. Thank you for your diligence in teaching the word.
My pleasure!
Lord's blessings.
I'm really enjoying this series also! Did I hear you say that you already did the episode about James - the brother of Christ? If not, I'm waiting to hear what your lecture on him may teach me. God bless! Thank you, Pastor.
@@Ststephenstudio I am including his story into an episode in the near future called "The Acts of the Other Apostles". Soon!
Lord's blessings.
@@churchhistoryandtheology Thank you! I'm glad for your repeated emphasis on how the scripture is the highest authority. I've been confused about where to go to be baptized and join a church and I've been afraid of joining anything other than the Orthodox church but have found that - because of where I live - it is impossible to join the "true Church." Thank the Lord for these videos.
I 1000% agree with putting scripture above church traditions. Much of church history after the 1st century is is the introduction of new ideas and traditions that grow as time passed even further away from scripture. Adding and adding and adding new things.
Now, this video could have been a lot shorter if you didn’t add in so many long opinions and commentaries. I prefer when you stick to the facts. I also disagreed with several things you said as fact, including adding that the wolves were not saved in the first place. Thats totally just your opinion. It wasn’t said that way in the words Paul wrote.
I do not hide that I teach this class from my perspective, just like every other teacher. You are more than welcome to disagree. I welcome it.
But I also read the words of Paul verbatim and there is no doubt that "wolves" are not Christians. As I do not hold that one can lose salvation, I teach that they were never Christians to begin with.
Lord's blessings.
@@churchhistoryandtheology Not saying I disagree with once saved always saved, but Paul doesn’t teach that. His letters to the church (aka the saved) are full of warnings that one can argue reference are warnings about losing your salvation through turning to sin. It’s not specifically addressed either way, so while I respect either side’s opinion, I think a teacher needs to express that it is their opinion, not the Word of God.
@@TheBatman777 So, your opinion is that Paul's letters do not specifically address either once saved always saved or losing salvation.
You probably should've stated that that is your opinion about Paul's writings rather than stating it as fact. :)
@@churchhistoryandtheology good one. Then again my opinion that it’s a fact can reasonably be proven true or not true based on anyone providing two verses that outright say it without a shadow of a doubt.
