Paul warns Timothy, in the early days of the church, that people will turn away from sound teaching and look for people who appeal to their desires. Its no surprise that this sin has stuck with us even until today. In fact, tools like search engines and social media have made it all the more easy for us as Christians to find teachers who don't give us sound doctrine, and instead pervert the truth to appeal to our passions.

The remedy for this is a solid understand of the word of God and a commitment to seeking out influences in our lives that are soundly based in Scripture.
