false teachers

I receive a decent amount of feeds in my Google Reader. one of those feeds is the Mars Hill vodcast. I was fairly amused by the latest one, which is a video of Mark Driscoll preaching on false teachers. I haven't actually watched the video yet, so I don't know what Mark has to say on the subject (good stuff I'm sure), but what amused me was the item description:
In warning Christians against false teachers, Peter notes that they are often bold. This means that they are very confident, pushy, and certain that they are right and that other people are wrong. What Peter is teaching is that someone can be sincere, confident, convincing, bold, and still wrong and a false teacher.
perhaps I'm becoming cynical, but that sounded like a perfect description of Mark himself. I don't necessarily think Mark is a false teacher, don't get me wrong. I do have some issues with some of the things he says. my main thing is, I just think this description is funny.

useless post FTW!

  1. Haha...yeah, that's a pretty funny comparison there. :) Btw, my boss goes to Mars Hill, and even though she loves it, she does have a few beefs with Mark Driscoll. (Personally, I think that's the sign of a mature Christian, to think things through and not to swallow blindly.)
