(2 Cor 11:2) “For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.” This wording reveals that the influence of false teachers can lead one away from the Lord into spiritual adultery. If we do not ourselves have a knowledge of God’s Word through our own efforts, we can be led astray and not even know it. Yet this warning falls upon deaf ears over and over again.
