2 Timothy 3:1-5
“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. ”
In our search for the truth, we must be careful of who we listen to. There are many people who are doing their best to follow God, but if someone’s actions or words do not follow the teachings of God, we must not listen to them. There will be many people who say they are following God and doing his work, but if listen and watch closely, they are not preaching the word of God. Only follow a man as long as he follows God. If a person that you looked up to turns from God and starts to wonder away, you need to stop listing to them. I know it is hard, but it is better to lose that person then you salvation.
