Recognizing False Prophets

2 Peter 2:10b-16 Continuing to warn his readers about false prophets, Peter gives details about their personal characteristics. Pastor Rod Bunton helps us understand those qualities with which we can recognize them today.

Characteristics of the God-fearer

Psalm 112 Pastor Doug Link draws from a parallel passage, Psalm 111, and focuses on Psalm 112, to help us understand what it means to fear the LORD and what the characteristics are of someone who does properly fear Him.

Precedents for Judgment

2 Peter 2:5-9 Peter continues to recall times when God fulfilled his promise to judge sinners. Pastor Rod Bunton dives deeper into two more precedents that demonstrate God’s punishment on those that oppose Him.

The Rebellion of Angels

2 Peter 2:3b-4 Peter introduced the topic of false prophets in this chapter and, in this passage, he begins to teach that although they may seem to prosper, God will ultimately punish them. Pastor Rod Bunton looks at Peter’s first example where not even angels were allowed to go unpunished when they rebelled.

An Overture to False Prophets, Part 2

2 Peter 2:1-3 Peter describes the prevalence of false teachers, their effect on the church, and their motivation. Pastor Rod Bunton concludes this introduction to the existence and agenda of false prophets.

An Overture to False Prophets, Part 1

2 Peter 2:1-3 After establishing the truths of reliable doctrines from God by way of reminder in Chapter 1, Peter turns to false doctrines. Pastor Rod Bunton begins as Peter does with an introduction to the existence and agenda of false prophets.

The Sure Word of God

2 Peter 1:19-21 Although Peter’s amazing eyewitness experience was powerfully convincing, it didn’t make God’s Word more reliable when he preached it. Pastor Rod Bunton shows how God’s Scripture is trustworthy on its own because it comes from Him.
