Choice 2: Teaching

These attributes can help us realize today who we should follow and listen too. False teachers today have the same attributes, they seek after the vanities of the world and preach that which is contrary to the Gospel and the teachings of Christ. So by watching their actions and fruits they produce, we can know if someone is a false teacher or a messenger from God.

2. The dangers of returning to the pollution's of the world is that we will be even more condemned that had we never obtained the knowledge that we now have. Once we have obtained a level of knowledge of God, he holds us that much more accountable. So if we slip and fall back into sin after being enlightened by the gospel, then our punishment will be that much worse. it would have been better for us to not have ever known the gospel
