What effect can false doctrines have upon the faithful?

Thomas R. Valletta

Referring to this verse, Elder Dallin H. Oaks warned: “Surely you have seen and heard these arguments. … They will come at you in classrooms and hallways, in what you read, and in what you see in popular entertainment. Many in the world deny the need for a Savior. Others deny that there is any right or wrong, and they scoff at the idea of sin or a devil. Still others rely on the mercy of God and ignore His justice. The prophet said, ‘There shall be many which shall teach after this manner, false and vain and foolish doctrines’ (2 Ne. 28:9)” (“Be Not Deceived,” 44).
