(Isaiah 2:6, ESV) Spreading The New EC Ideology Apprising Ministries has been telling you in recent posts such as The Emerging Church, Philip Clayton, And New Progressive Theology and Brian McLaren And His New Emerging Progressive […]

Apprising Ministries points you to the following report from Lighthouse Trails Research, which shows a continuing spread of the spiritual cancer of the Emerging Church within apostatizing evangelicalism:   This coming June, Calvary Chapel Albuquerque (a veteran Calvary Chapel church pastored by Skip Heitzig) will host the National Worship Leader Conference in Albuquerque, New Mexico and will feature New Age sympathizer and […]

Apprising Ministries showed you in Doug Pagitt, John Piper, And Karma Kick-Back that universalist Emerging Church pastor Doug Pagitt, part of the Emergent trinity along with his progressive theologian in residence Tony Jones and EC guru Brian McLaren, believes that John Piper’s recent prognostication of the demise of the Emergent Church “has been greatly exaggerated.” [1] This is one of those rare […]

…and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them.

But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. They said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.” These are the men who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
