False Teachers (2 Timothy 4)

Robert Bruce’s 16th Century preaching in Scotland allowed the people to note a contrast between one who preaches with authority and the others who preach for the smiles of the congregation. Robert Murray McCheyne cautioned people to follow the word of God rather than those professing to be God’s ministers: “A minister will make a poor saviour in the day of wrath…. You need to have your hand on the head of the Lamb for yourselves. You need to have your eye on the brazen serpent for yourselves.”
