What does the Bible say about following false teachers?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible warns against following false teachers, as they can lead believers away from the truth.

Scripture cautions believers about the dangers of false teachers who disguise themselves as agents of light. In Matthew 7:15, Jesus warns about false prophets, stating they come in sheep's clothing but are inwardly ravenous wolves. The narrative in Bunyan's work reflects this warning, as the pilgrims were misled by the Flatterer, symbolizing how easily one can be led astray by enticing words. In 2 Corinthians 11:14, Paul indicates that even Satan can transform into an angel of light, hence the importance of discernment and vigilance in the Christian life.
