Learn
from the past. In 2 Peter 2:15-16, Jude 11 and Revelation 2:14, we are
encouraged to learn from the events of this chapter. Each passage
contains a warning. (a) 2 Peter 2:15-16 - Don't leave 'the straight way' and follow the crooked way! (b) Jude 11 - Don't let making a profit become more important than being a prophet! (c) Revelation 2:14
- Make sure you don't get drawn away from God into sin! What is God
saying to us here? - 'these things happened... as a warning... they were
written down for our instruction...let anyone who thinks that he stands
take heed lest he fall'. With the warning, there is also the promise:
'...God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your
strength, but with the temptation will also provide a way of escape...'
(1 Corinthians 10:11-13).
