Those who fall prey to false teachers will abandon the Christian faith. The Greek word for depart is the source of the English word apostatize, and refers to someone moving away from an original position. These are professing or nominal Christians who associate with those who truly believe the gospel, but defect after believing lies and deception, thus revealing their true nature as unconverted.
False teachers can teach their hypocritical lies because their consciences have been desensitized (Eph 4:19), as if all the nerves that make them feel had been destroyed and turned into scar tissue by the burning of demonic deception.

Summary: Some Will Depart from the Faith, A Good Servant of Christ Jesus
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, through the insincerity of liars whose consciences are seared, who forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer.
~ 1 Timothy 4:1-5
