I have viewed a DVD that has very disturbing content. The DVD shows Christian preachers that makes false teachings. Unfortunate the DVD only seems to only attack these people and try to make you hate them. There is no context what so ever, not all the facts on the DVD are true, it is only sensation. If you want to see a good example of how false teaching should be taken head on, view Lee Strobel's web site and watch his DVD commentary of the De Vinci code. He does the following: 1. What is the lie being told? Only what is the lie and who told it. 2. Why it is untrue? Very briefly, historical overview. 3. What is the truth? 80% of the content is here as this is actually what needs to be heard. This is what you should do when faced with false teaching: 1. Always listen to what is said it even though you know it is untrue. 2. It is a great opportunity to do research. 3. Talk with someone you know on how to address the false teaching. 4. Read your Bible. It also helps you put your faith into perspective. Sooner or later you will find other people that also listened to the same lie and just believed it. You may be the only person that may actually have the truth regarding the matter in a contextualised format. The above will enable you to explain what you believe to yourself and to others. |
