Beware of False Elements

  1. Beware of the false way (v. 13-14)
      A. The way that leads to destruction is wide and spacious (v. 13)
        1. If you follow your human inclinations, you will end up in destruction
        2. Stay away from this path
      B. The way that leads to life is narrow and compressed (v. 14)
        1. "Compressed": the idea of persecution
        2. Against the grain
        3. This way is difficult, but Christ is with us to guarantee our safety
      C. Choose the way to life
  2. Beware of false prophets (v. 15-20)
      A. They look like God's people on the outside (v. 15)
      B. They produce bad fruit (v. 16-20)
        1. Actions
        2. Words
        3. Attitudes
      C. Do not trust the teaching of those who bear bad fruit  
      D. Do not be judgmental, but be merciful, in love
  3. Beware of false discipleship (v. 21-23)
      A. Calling Jesus "Lord" is not proof of true discipleship (v. 21)
        1. Jesus is not your Lord if you do not obey him
      B. Performing impressive spiritual works is not proof of true discipleships (v. 22-23)
        1. "Jesus, I am looking at what you did for me."
      C. Follow Jesus in submitting to the will of God
