False Teachers: Their Fate

Anyone who follows false teachers will also share in their fate.  When describing their judgment Jude lists three examples from the Old Testament.

1. DESTRUCTION for unbelievers:  Not all of the Israelites who escaped from slavery in Egypt were true believers.  Many were faithless, rebellious complaining idolaters. They faced judgment through fire, plagues, and wandering in the desert.
2. IMPRISONMENT for disobedience:  God has imprisoned angels in everlasting darkness for their disobedience during the days of Noah.
3. ETERNAL FIRE for immorality:  Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by fire and brimstone for the sin of homosexuality.

All of these judgments describe HELL itself.  That is the fate of false teachers and anyone who follows them.  This is a very stern warning from God.  This is serious business, and not to be taken lightly.
