Let your roots grow down into him and draw up nourishment from him, so you will grow in faith, strong and vigorous in the truth you were taught. Let your lives overflow with thanksgiving for all he has done. Don’t let anyone lead you astray with empty philosophy and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the evil powers of this world, and not from Christ.
Colossians 2:7-8

There are those who would lead you astray. That is why it is so important to study and to pray. With study, your will gain the knowledge and understanding necessary to recognize false teaching when you hear it.
Those who are experts in recognizing counterfeit money are trained by studying the real thing. When a phony bill is given to them, they can easily spot it, no matter how good the counterfeit looks.
With prayer, you can ask the Holy Spirit to guard your heart and mind from the evil that permeates this world. With your guard up, false teaching will be quickly sensed and easily rejected.
Hold on to what the Bible teaches and grow in faith!
