  • Genesis 7:1-11

    • It is wrong.
      • Matthew 25:1-13 - No one knows when the Lord is coming again!
      • I Thessalonians 5:1-8 - The Lord will come like a thief in the night.
      • II Peter 3:10 - The day of the Lord will come like a thief.
    • It causes people to look for secret ways to interpret the Bible.
      • I John 1:6 - This sort of teaching is similar to Gnosticism, which it defended against here.
      • II Peter 3:8-9
      • We must let plain teaching guide us through the more difficult passages.
    • It will give people a reason to believe the Bible is confusing and wrong.
      • Deuteronomy 18:20
    • It distracts people from preparing for the real Judgment Day.
      • II Thessalonians 2:1-4 - Don’t be distracted but keep doing what you’ve been taught.
      • II Peter 3:11-18 - Be diligent to live as God has told us to live.

  • Christ set us free from the slavery of sin.
    • Christ did not free us from sin so that we could go back under the old law.
  • If you follow part of the old law, you are bound to follow all of the old law. You can’t pick and choose!
  • Circumcision means nothing as far as following the law of Christ.
  • Galatians 5:9 - A little false teaching can cause a whole group to go astray.
