Be on your guard! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Their teaching will spread like gangrene.”
(2 Timothy 2:17)

False teaching is so like gangrene it’s scary, Jesus

bringing spiritual death to all who embrace it.

Gangrene occurs when there is no blood flow to arms, legs, toes and fingers

just as false teachers deny the saving power
of Your blood shed for us on the cross.

Muscles and internal organs can die from spreading infection

in the same way the sins promoted by the false teacher
destroys their followers from the inside.

Be forewarned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up.”
(2 Peter 2:3)

A made-up story can be enjoyable, Jesus –

as a fairy tale told to children
when a gifted novelist spins an intriguing adventure.

But when made-up stories are used to manipulate Your people and lead them astray

they’re not entertainment.
They’re a lie.

Satan is the father of lies.

His every intent is to steer people away from the truth

that always points to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with the humility that comes from honesty:

“…there will be false teachers among you.”
(2 Peter 2:1)

Why, Jesus?

Why would You allow false teachers in Your Church?

I suppose that’s the same question as

why would You allow liars, addicts, adulterers, gluttons, gossips?

It’s who we are, isn’t it?

Thank God, not who You’re helping us become!

But we haven’t arrived.

Every single one of us has such a long way to go.

Since You’re lovingly correcting me…

I guess I can lovingly correct them.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the only true God:

“…there were also false prophets among the people…”
(2 Peter 2:1)

Always have been, Jesus.

Way back in the day…
all the way to this very moment.

Some of them have wanted so badly to hear from You

that they’ve ended up deceiving themselves

actually believing that what they’re spouting originated with You

instead of in the dark recesses of their deluded minds.

Others are fakes, charlatans, phonies.

They’re lying to the gullible
and they know it.

Spare me, Father!

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…you…by your teaching have caused many to stumble…”
(Malachi 2:8)

Teachers are so important – to every one of us, Jesus!

But if teachers can’t be trusted…

if they twist the knowledge they share
if they mislead the trusting, the naïve, the ignorant

everyone who sits under them
is at risk.

True, those who blindly follow their teachers share the blame.

But the teacher who deliberately sticks out a foot to trip them
is at the greatest risk of all.
