The Church of Jesus Christ certainly seems to have lost its way in this increasingly pagan nation as it follows e.g. dreamers rooted in the semi-pelgian Church Growth Movement like Rick Warren and Rob Bell. Left here by our Lord to be the salt and light of the world, yet the evangelical community continues to grow […]

The following is adapted from the Apprising Ministries post Rob Bell In A Nutshell: The Bible: Emerging Church pastor Rob Bell The Bells started questioning their assumptions about the Bible itself–discovering the Bible as a human product,” as Rob puts it, rather than the product of divine fiat. “The Bible is still in the center for us,” […]

…a double-minded man [is] unstable in all he does. (James 1:8) Decended From The Reformers But Praising The Doctrine of Counter-Reformers With recent articles like Georgia Baptist Convention (SBC) Now Promoting the Cult of Richard Foster and Christianity Today Promoting the Roman Catholic Mystic Catherine of Siena at Apprising Ministries as well as Crosstalk: Ken Silva on “Evangelicals Embrace Mystics” we’re […]

Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.” (John 5:24, NASB) Jesus Says The True Nature Of Man Is Evil In today’s “it’s all about me” postevangelical religion spawned […]

With what indignation, then, must the Lord look down upon that apostate harlot, called the Romish Church, when, in all her sanctuaries, there are pictures and images, relics and slivines, and poor infatuated beings are even taught to bow before a piece of bread. In this country, Popish idolatry is not so barefaced and naked […]
