A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing “ 15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” Matthew 7:15 Teddy Chang Assistant Pastor October 20, 2013

I. Wolf’s inward character, Ravening-greedy and hungry. Matthew 7:15- “…inwardly they are ravening wolves.” II. Sheep’s clothing, The false appearance of being true believers. III. Wolf in sheep’s clothing toward the different society, Schools- immoral sex and drug.

Employments- immoral sex and embezzlement. Church- interfaith toward Ecumenical Activity. Watch out for the World Council of Churches like the Tower of Babel. III. Watch over the danger of INTERFAITH. Wolves wearing sheep’s clothing look like nice Christians. They smile beautifully. Their attitude is wonderful. They act compassionately toward those who are: DEPRESSED, LONELY, AND POOR.

They won’t judge those who get involved in freedom sex, the legalization of drugs, gay marriage and tattoo nationwide. They become popular and possess magnetic personality by showing their graceful and beautiful respect among the crowd.

IV. Apostle Paul mentioned Demas as his Deserter, Demas was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He greet you(Christians)- Colossians 4:14. He was Paul’s fellow laborer. He quit because he loved this present world in a reference to 2 Timothy 4:10: “For Demas hath forsaken me(Paul), having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.”

VI. The Practice of Discerning the Wolves and Sheep, 1.You must be born again first (salvation) in John 3:7. 2.You should be baptized for obeying God’s command immediately in Matthew 28:19. 3.You should not forsake your congregation on Sundays and Wednesday in Hebrews 10:25.

4.You should not steal God’s tithes and offerings in Malachi 3:8. 5.You’d better learn 1 Thessalonians 5:14 saying, “Now we exhort you, brethern, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.” 6.You will be blessed for your pure heart. You will see God in Matthew 5:8.

7.God teaches your born-again congregation in James 4:7-8 below: “ 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. “8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.”

8. When you reach toward 8 things to get the discernment of the lie and the truth from God in Hebrews 4:12-- “ 12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” END
