Summary
False teachers are dangerous but so is calling someone one who doesn’t fit the definition. We discuss what a false teacher is and isn’t. You will get specifics on what the red and yellow flags are in determining if someone is a false teacher. It’s vital to teach your children this so that when they're older they don’t get swept up in false doctrine. Get a list of scriptures you can teach your children and three things you can do to equip them to discern when someone is a false teacher. It’s a big charge against someone, so if it’s made, they better be right. But scripture does say to expose what’s evil and if someone truly is a false teacher, we do have a responsibility to expose it.

| 0:00.0 | We hope you're enjoying the series, How to Talk to Your Children. Last week was How to Talk to |
| 0:03.9 | Your Children about the Iran War. We got a lot of good feedback on that. And we did. Yeah, absolutely. |
| 0:10.1 | And it's done really well. I also think that I think people are starving for it. Like, how do I |
| 0:15.0 | really talk about these things? The world's changing so quickly. There's so many things. |
| 0:19.2 | Literally, every couple of couple weeks there could be |
| 0:21.0 | something really worthy that we need to talk to our children about that maybe previous |
| 0:26.1 | generations haven't had to talk to them about or at least as early as we may need to now so |
| 0:31.5 | that's important we were going to do how to talk about aliens and UFOs this week why did it |
| 0:37.1 | change ang well actually you started preaching through first timothy at going to do how to talk about aliens and UFOs this week. Why did it change, Ange? Well, actually, |
| 0:39.3 | you started preaching through First Timothy at church, and Sunday's sermon was so good, and it brought up |
| 0:45.9 | false teachers. In fact, you titled the sermon, Don't Be a False Teacher, which is a really brilliant |

| 0:55.8 | right? He's just expositorily teaching through 1st Timothy chapter 1, the first seven verses. But in there |
| 1:01.7 | saying don't be a false teacher, it applies to all of us, this warning, understanding that we |
| 1:06.6 | should be walking out our faith with fear and trembling. And so even when we're on social media, |
| 1:10.2 | when we're on media, recognizing that we also have influence and the things that we say, |
| 1:16.0 | the things we endorse, the things that we promote are going to lead people a certain direction. |
| 1:20.7 | So to make sure that we're walking that out with fear and trembling and leading people in a good |
