How do elders protect the church from false teachings?

Answered in 1 source

Elders protect the church by teaching sound doctrine and rebuking false teachings (Titus 1:9).

Elders have a crucial role in safeguarding the church from false teachings by ensuring that sound doctrine is taught and maintained, as indicated in Titus 1:9. They are charged with the responsibility to hold firm to the trustworthy word and to provide instruction in accordance with that word. This protective role involves rebuking those within the church who contradict sound teachings. By doing so, elders help to maintain the purity of the church's beliefs, promote spiritual maturity, and uphold the integrity of the ministry.
