However, there are “false teachers” (2 Peter 2:1 LSB), as well as “false doctrines” (1 Timothy 1:3), and “false prophets” that we need to “beware of” (Matthew 7:15). Regarding anything that is taught about the Bible, we do well to ask, “Does scripture really say that?“

BIBLE PRINCIPLES

December 8, 2024 BibleAuthenticity Comments 10 comments

The state of New York has settled a class action lawsuit over sexual abuse by Catholic clergy, and others are pending. What does this tell us about the Catholic Church? What does the Bible have to say about sexual misconduct?
