A Warning About False Teachers
As if to confirm our conclusion about false teachers who baptized the living for the dead, Paul warned the Corinthains to beware because wicked people with false teaching could turn them from following the truth. The apostle wanted them to shake off the drunken stupor in which evil had placed them. He hoped they would be shamed by their ignorance, concerning God and his ability, and change (1 Corinthians 15:33-34).
