Now that cuts to the heart of the matter - convicting a pharisee like me who criticizes the TBN crowd while harboring idolotry in my heart.

Did you purchase a bmw recently? ;)

In all seriousness, we all have harbored sin in our life, whether it be idolatry or pride or something else. Should that stop us from identifying a false gospel? I hope not. Otherwise no false gospels would ever be called out.

Paul was very quick to name both his own sin, and the false gospels of his own day.

I was pointing out my own struggles with worshiping the gifts rather than the giver. It's easier to see faults in others and ignore them in yourself.

Too true.
