I’ve pointed out many times now that as a general rule, and a courtesy, we do not publish email without the permission of the sender. At the same time, all email sent to AM and Christian Research Network is considered the property of Apprising Ministries so we may indeed publish unsolicited email for the purposes of edification.

In articles like Spiritual Blindness And Famine In The Land and Evangelicalism Meet Thy Future here at this online apologetics and discernment work Apprising MinistriesI’ve been mentioning lately that as a veritable tsunami of apostasy grows—likely fueled by 1 Peter 4:17 judgments sent by Jesus—I’m essentially just documenting this falling away from Biblical doctrine so people will have no excuse. A case in […]

They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. (1 John 4:5) Many Are Just Now Coming Under The Spell of Bell In pieces like Something Seems Off At Mars Hill Bible Church and Could Rob Bell Be Wrong? here at Apprising Ministries I’ve been keeping you updated on […]

Let me tell you something that I have learned; I know the liberals. I know them well; I was one of them. And they are the most dangerous, insidious, and all-pervading cult that’s loose in the United States right at this moment. They make the Jehovah’s Witnesses, and the Mormons, and all of the Mind Sciences, […]

I’ve told you before e.g. in Apprising Ministries: Rob Bell Resources that online apologetics and discernment ministries have been warning you about the warped and toxic teachings of the Emerging Church rock star pastor Rob Bell for years now.  Bell’s gospel is essentially the same as the newer postmodern form of Progressive Christianity—Liberalism 2.0—that  Living Spiritual Teacher and leading Emergent guru Brian McLaren began laying out […]

As a leading online apologetics and discernment work, Apprising Ministries has been warning you about the teachings the Emerging Church rock star pastor Rob Bell, co-teaching pastor at Mars Hill Bible Church along with his good friend Shane Hipps.  You may recall that I also told you in Unrest With Rob Bell Inside Mars Hill Bible Church, there are many sincere believers there; my concern […]

Perhaps some will say that “the gospel is a person (Jesus), not a doctrine.” This is a false dichotomy. The living word and written word are not enemies, but friends. As much as I agree with presenting the person of Christ, not just flinging concepts at people, Christ must be defined. A content-less Christ will […]

For me, the greatest danger of Bell’s interpretation in this book is his view of Christ’s cross. Obviously, if there is no wrath or judgment, then whatever Christ achieved for us on the cross cannot be understood in terms of a vicarious substitute. There is no objective propitiation and, since everyone is already God’s friend […]

 For if someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough. (2 Corinthians 11:4) But Which Jesus Is It Whom You Claim […]

The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders. (2 Thessalonians 2:9) There are areas of Christian thought—and because of thought then also of life, where likenesses and differences are so difficult to distinguish that we are often hard put to escape complete deception! Throughout […]
