Wolves are portrayed quite positively today, especially in nature programs . If popular fairy tales were being written today the wolf would save the three little pigs and walk Little Red Riding Hood to safety. However, this positive image of wolves is relatively new. Back at the time of the early church, Christians saw wolves as wild predators. That's why in the Bible, Paul described the false teachers who wanted to destroy the Christian faith as 'savage wolves'. There was great danger in the early church of those false teachers leading Christians into error by teaching lies.
So let's go to the very early years of the church to discover the names of those people who fought for and against God's truth.
