2 Peter / Question
Question source
2 Peter
Peter warns that false teachers will “secretly bring in destructive heresies.” He says they may even deny “the Master who bought them,” bringing swift destruction on themselves. The passage also notes that “many” will follow their sensuality and that they will exploit people. See 2 Peter 2:1–3.
1But there also arose false prophets among the people, as among you also there will be false teachers, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction.
2Many will follow their destructive ways, and as a result, the way of the truth will be maligned.
3In covetousness will they exploit you with deceptive words: whose sentence now from of old doesn`t linger, and their destruction will not slumber.
