False Teachers Who Blaspheme What They Do Not Understand

As we continue our study into identifying the marks of a false teacher, being able to spot them, being able to identify who they are, and be able to be warned of them, we're going through the book of Jude and looking at this, and we saw that even Michael wouldn't want to make blasphemous judgments against the devil.

And you see people who are false teachers will condemn others, usually people who are correcting them, and instead of receiving the correction, what do they do? They claim to speak for God and call down judgments on other people.

Jude 10 and the Blasphemy of Ignorant False Teachers

This is what we end up seeing in Jude verse 10. He says,. But these people blaspheme all that they do not understand, and they are destroyed by all that they, like unreasoning animals, understand instinctively.

So what you end up seeing here is this, is that what he says is that these people, these false teachers, they don't even understand the things that they're blaspheming. They don't even understand the things that they're going to be judged under, in the sense that they know them naturally.

That's what it's saying. In other words, they all understand what they're doing is wrong, but though they don't understand the specifics when they are blaspheming, they don't understand who God is. They will call down on things, usually of theology and things like that, that they haven't taken the time to understand, and they criticize it.

Denying the Trinity Through Willful Ignorance

People who will deny the Trinity because they don't understand it, and yet they don't take the time to understand. Instead, they criticize it. That's what false teachers do. They bring judgment because they don't understand.
