Brannon continues to look at the book of first John and how to recognize false teachers and why some self-professing evangelicals embrace false teachers. First, Brannon welcomes Paul and his niece Kay to the program to discuss a public school assembly on global warming sponsored by Alliance for Climate Education. This group has reportedly sponsored assemblies in over 1,000 schools. Topic: On Today’s program Brannon examines I John 3:6 that speaks of nonbelievers having no conviction of sinful practices. First John 3:10 says that believers will practice righteousness and unbelievers practice unrighteousness. There is nothing more unrighteous than those that blaspheme the Holy Spirit as practiced by the NAR and Word of Faith. 2 John 9-11 says that those that work with false teachers take part in their evil deeds or unrighteousness. Continuing to take part in unrighteousness after being warned is the fruit of an unbeliever. First John 3:16 explains that true believes will sacrifice self-interest for the good of the brethren or the true church. An unbeliever shows no concern for what harms the church such as embracing, promoting and giving credibility to false teachers and the false church. The unbeliever, or the Christian that acts like an unbeliever, will work with false teachers, and those that embrace false teachers, even if it harms the church but benefits them personally. Unbelievers, and those that do not protect the church, are more interested in their own self-interest such a gaining a bigger following, increasing their donor base, appealing to unbelievers, being popular, gaining more radio outlets, more listeners or being part of the “conservative” or “religious” establishment. Those that are not truly interested in protecting the church, despite their public confessions, will separate and speak despairingly of those that have lovingly challenged their unbiblical actions, pragmatism, compromise, and selfishness. Such actions serve to also put them in good standing and to be rewarded by those that embrace false teachers. Believers sacrifice all self-interest, self-reputation, and selfish gains to defend and protect the brethren, the bride of Jesus Christ and the gospel. A true defender of the church will endure attacks on their reputation and will not compromise biblical truth even when maligned by those who have called them friend. As the days become worse and worse, the true church is going to be shocked at those that will compromise and put the church at risk for selfish gain and worldly promotion. First John 4:1 tells us that unbelieves do not test the spirit and detect false prophets. First John 4:5-6 declares that unbelieves do not listen to the truth of God’s Word nor the Biblical warnings of believes that speak according to the Word of God.
