The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
In this letter, we are reminded to be careful that we do not become easily confused about God’s word by listening to false doctrines (2:2-3). At the same time, we should be aware that many false doctrines surround us, the result of the "working of Satan," which Paul calls "lying wonders" (2:9). These "lying wonders" (so-called miracles of today) have led many honest people astray (2:10). We must be aware of these false doctrines and stand fast in God’s word (2:15).
