—Acts 18:24-28

To know true teaching from false teaching, we need a good understanding of God's Word. In this section of Scripture, Apollos was not teaching false doctrine, but he had incomplete knowledge. When we have a good grasp of Scripture, we can help those who don't. Please note that Priscilla and Aquila did not make a public spectacle of Apollos' lack of knowledge. Instead, they explained it to him in private. When Apollos knew the whole truth, he was quite effective (vv. 27-28).
