Erroneous Doctrines are Like Leaven
Matthew 16:6-12
Then Jesus said to them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.…


in the following respects: —

1. They are, at first, slight and unimportant in appearance.

2. They are insinuated into the soul unawares and silently, and are difficult of detection.

3. They act gradually.

4. They act most certainly.

5. They will pervade all the soul, and bring all the faculties under their control.

(A. Barnes.)
