As Jesus teaches His disciples many things to do as we grow in Him, one particular
warning continues to carry much urgency. As Christians grow in their knowledge and faith in Jesus Christ, there are those who are threatened by our
growth and our faith in Jesus Christ. They are the enemies of God who pretend to love His Son. They are the false teachers and false prophets who will
come in among us to subtly spread lies and corrupt our fellowship with Jesus Christ and with each other. These are the wolves in sheep’s clothing
about whom Jesus warns us. The Apostle Paul finds himself facing this urgent threat in the body of Christ at Colossae. Today, this continues to be a
major concern in the body of Christ. There are those who are wolves in sheep’s clothing seeking to destroy our faith, seeking to destroy all
believers in Christ, seeking to destroy the name and truth of Jesus Christ. We are called to be on guard against such attacks on our faith. Are you on
guard?
