False Leaders (long article, but worth the read)

HERESIES WHICH EVEN DENY JESUS

1 John 4:3 "And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world."

Unity and Christian science separate Jesus the man from Christ the spirit. Spiritualism states Jesus Christ was not divine. Jehovah Witnesses and Armstrongism state Jesus was not Jehovah God and was not raised in the flesh.

2 Peter 2:1-3 "But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not."

Privily is pareisago in Greek, meaning to introduce secretly or craftily.

Damnable and destruction are apoleia in Greek, meaning (physical, spiritual or eternal) ruin or loss, destruction, death, pernicious ways, or waste.

Heresies is hairesis in Greek, meaning 1) the act of taking, capturing: for example, storming a city 2) choosing, choice 3) that which is chosen 4) a body of men following their own tenets (sect or party) 5) dissension's arising from a diversity of opinions and aims.

Covetousness is pleonexia in Greek, meaning avarice, greediness, fraudulence, or extortion.

Feigned is plastos in Greek; meaning false formed or artificial.

Make merchandise is emporeuomai in Greek, meaning 1) to travel for business, to traffic, to trade 2) used of a thing, to import for sale 3) to deal in or 4) to use a person or a thing for gain.

They deny the Lord who "bought them", but they'll sell you to the highest bidder. And if you 'break' (physically, emotionally, or financially) and appear to be no longer profitable to them, they'll quickly toss you aside like old rubbish. "Many will follow their pernicious ways." They will appear successful, but Christianity will be blasphemed because of them. The world will clearly see their greed for money and rightly call them hypocrites.
