False teachers are more concerned with winning others to their opinions than in helping and bettering them. This was another of Jesus' diagnoses as he considered the religious rulers of his day. "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel across sea and land to make a single proselyte, and when he becomes a proselyte, you make him twice as much a child of hell as yourselves" (Matt 23:15). False teachers are ultimately not in the business of bettering lives and saving souls, but of convincing minds and winning followers.
