"Wrong doctrine always gets people to come back to you, so that you hook them on to yourself and they start eating out of your hand. Or they start quoting you verbatim. They'll pick out verses here and there...some of them have totally gone overboard on to the wrong side...some of them are on the slippery slope. These doctrines that seem to be specialised doctrines are actually wrong doctrines which get people hooked on to you. You may have bigger attendance in those churches than in the churches that teach biblical doctrine" says Apologist and Bible Teacher L.T. Jeyachandran as he explores the relationship between Wrong Doctrine and the Lust for Power in this short video: -------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- L.T.

It is good to note that False Teaching is recognized as such and counter measures are being taken by younger leaders and newer churches.  This itself is a healthy sign.  However, it is essential to understand that there are fundamental principles that when ignored or violated, allows False Teaching to flourish and multiply.  I have put some fundamentals in an easy to way to understand, to build the immune system that withstands False Teaching onslaught.
