The Bible warns about false apostles, describing them as deceitful workers who disguise themselves as servants of righteousness.
In 2 Corinthians 11:13-14, Paul identifies false apostles as deceitful workmen masquerading as apostles of Christ. This warning highlights the reality that those who oppose the truth of God often appear as if they are part of the truth. Just as Satan masquerades as an angel of light, these false teachers can deceive believers by presenting themselves as righteous. This underscores the need for discernment in the church, as their intent is to corrupt the very souls they pretend to lead.
