Falsedoctrine Episodes

How do we recognize false doctrine before it takes root in our lives? In 2 Timothy 3:8-17, Paul warns Timothy about people who oppose the truth and resist sound teaching. But Paul doesn’t leave Timothy wondering where he should turn. He points him directly to the Scriptures—the Word of God that is profitable for teaching, correction, and instruction in righteousness. Then Galatians 1:8 gives us an incredibly serious warning: even if someone claims to bring a message from heaven, if that message contradicts the gospel already given, it must be rejected. In today’s Daily Dose, we continue exposing false doctrines by asking a difficult question: Are we grounded enough in God’s Word to recognize deception when it comes? Because you can’t recognize a counterfeit by studying counterfeits alone. You need to know the genuine article.

There are teachings circulating about the Apostle Paul that suggest he taught that baptism is unnecessary—or even that Paul himself rejected baptism as part of the Christian faith. But is that really what Scripture teaches? In this episode, we take a careful look at 1 Corinthians 1:10-17, Ephesians 4:4-5, and Romans 6:3-4 to examine what Paul actually said about baptism. We’ll consider the context of Paul’s words, the difference between baptism and the Gospel itself, and why taking a verse out of context can create a completely different doctrine than the one Scripture teaches. The goal isn’t to defend a tradition or attack a person. It’s to let Scripture interpret Scripture and allow the Word of God to speak for itself.

What happens when standing for truth makes you a target? In this episode, we explore Jesus’ warning that the world will hate those who follow Him—and what that actually looks like in real life. From the early church in Acts to the warnings in the epistles, Scripture shows us that resistance, deception, and spiritual opposition are not new. But neither is victory. This episode will help you understand why the pushback comes, how to recognize false teaching and cultural pressure, and how to stay grounded in truth without compromise.
