JOHN MACARTHUR: JESUS AND FALSE TEACHERS »

HT: Email Brigade

NO CONDEMNATION FOR CHRISTIANS »

In those days, and in that time, saith the Lord, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve. (Jeremiah 50:20)   A glorious word indeed! What a perfect pardon is here […]

CHRISTIAN MATURITY AND HOW IT RELATES TO DISCERNMENT »

By Apprising Ministries correspondent Mike Ratilff of Possessing the Treasure Not that I have already received or have been completed, I press on that, if possible, to apprehend it because Christ Jesus has apprehended me. (a personal translation of Philippians 3:12) There is no small ruckus going on right now online within the “discernment” ministries […]

THE GAME: "WHAT DOES THIS BIBLE VERSE MEAN TO YOU?" »

DAN KIMBALL ON THE RECORD »

I have  stated this before, but for reasons which may become clearer in the coming days, I remind you that Apprising Ministries has always been a fully integrated auxiliary from Connecticut River Baptist Church (SBC), where I serve as pastor-teacher. And as I’ve also mentioned previously, even though my local church is affiliated with the SBC (for […]

LOOK OUTWARD, UPWARD, TO JESUS »

Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else. (Isaiah 45:22)   This is a promise of promises. It lies at the foundation of our spiritual I life. Salvation comes through a look at Him who is “a just God and a […]

EMERGING CHURCH LEADER DAN KIMBALL ON "DISCERNMENT MINISTRIES" »

As I said recently in Apprising Ministries On Dan Kimball, it’s a well known fact that this online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries is certainly no friend of the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emerging Church aka Emergent Church, and the awful impact that these rebels against the final authority of the Word of God are having upon the church visible through their postmodern Progressive […]

GOD-CENTERED GOSPEL VS. MAN-CENTERED GOSPEL »

 Sola fide and sola gratia, as used in the Protestant Reformation, form the basis of a God-centered Gospel meaning that while the sinner is dead in his trespasses and sins God Himself sovereignly regenerates those whom He will. By His gift of grace God gives them the faith to believe in Christ, and they repent of their sins. This […]

A WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT »

No matter what the circumstances might look like when the day of evil comes (cf. Ephesians 6:13), we who are in Christ will understand that the Bible is a supernatural Book. A work written by our merciful Father in Heaven to point the way to the focal point of all of human history—Jesus Christ our […]
