Synopsis: As the Church matures in its interpretation of the bible and development of doctrine, she must avoid innovation and innovators who go beyond Jesus’ teaching and Jesus’ example. Our reception of one another is bounded by gospel faithfulness.
a. Warning against innovation (v. 9a)
b. To abide in Christ's teaching is to abide in Christ. (v. 9b)
c. Do not welcome or greet innovators (vv.10-11)
