Tag: sensuality

The Apostle Peter claims that the primary markers of false prophets or false teachers are greed and sensuality. He didn’t focus on doctrinal purity when determining who is false, but their heart and conduct. Peter did briefly mention doctrinal purity in this passage when he referred to “false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them.” Denying the Master can refer to several doctrinal heresies like those mentioned by John.
