MINGLING WITH PAGANS »

Ever wonder what happens when the Lord’s people do not follow His command to come away from the pagan world but instead mingle with “the other” and begin to borrow from their religions: they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs. They worshiped their idols, which became a snare to them. They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons. They shed innocent blood, the […]

Charles Spurgeon battled the original cult of liberalism in what is known as The Downgrade Controversy. And so what this man powerful in Christ says in this short message to follow is so crucial.

PETER ROLLINS AND PHYLLIS TICKLE ON THE EMERGENCE OF A BRAND NEW RELIGION »
