“Those people.” A triggering phrase in the midst of a culture that is divided. But don’t ignore it; don’t assume who “those people” is referring to in this verse. It may not be who you think. The writer is helping all believers out as he reminds us that there are “those people” who ignore the truth about who Jesus is while claiming to be spiritual leaders, worthy of our trust. In other words, there are those people who attempt to deceive Jesus—followers, tempting them away from Jesus’s best plan for our lives. But thank God that He gives us an awareness of them through His Spirit who is wiser, greater, and more trustworthy than the people who try to deceive us. We can celebrate the fact that we can see the difference between what is true and what is not and we can pray for “those people” to see it too.
