In Luke 12:42-48 Jesus gave a severe warning to leaders and teachers who are supposed to care for the Church. Those who were faithful servants would be rewarded, but the unfaithful who did not properly care for His sheep would be assigned a place with unbelievers. Scripture is full of warnings about false prophets and teachers and who we choose to follow.
