False teachers aren’t always easy to spot. They may smile, quote the Bible, and fill stadiums—but Jesus warned they’re “ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing” (Matt. 7:15 ). In this episode, we uncover how to recognize spiritual deception, test every teaching against God’s Word, and protect the church from dangerous influences—whether they come from outside or within.

You’ll learn:

  • The biblical tests for identifying false prophets (Deut. 13, Deut. 18, 1 John 4)
  • Why popularity, charisma, and “outward success” can be misleading
  • Six practical ways to grow in discernment and guard your church
  • How to select godly leaders and spot those seeking power instead of service


This is a call to sharpen your spiritual discernment and keep the flock safe. Don’t let the wolves roam free.


📖 Scriptures Covered: Matthew 7:15 | 1 John 4:1 | 1 Thess. 5:21 | Acts 20:28 –30 | 2 Peter 2:1–3 | and more.
