Character of Teaching

Teaches by the spirit, so that your faith stands in the power of God

Of True	Of False
1 Corinthians 2꞉4-5 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of spirit and power: that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of man, but on the power of God. (1 Corintians 2꞉9-14, Luke 24꞉32. Jeremiah 20꞉9)	2 Peter 2꞉18-19 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure thought the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, that those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same he is brought in bondage. (Also Titus 1꞉10-11, Isaiah 5꞉11-25)
	1 John 4꞉5 They are of the world: therefore they speak of the world, and the world heareth them.
	Colossians 2꞉8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
