But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. The will secretly introduce their own destructive teachings. They will deny the Lord, who has bought them and bring sudden destruction on themselves. Many will follow their sexual freedom, and because of them will cause others to dishonor the way of truth. In their covetousness these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 Peter 2:1-3
When a crisis arises that we instantly reveal upon whom we rely. Our Lord has a right to expect that those who name His name have an underlying confidence in Him. Oswald Chambers
