WE MUST SPEAK THE TRUTH »

Jesus Christ defeated Satan already on the Cross, and in the glory of the Resurrection. He is risen from the dead and is Son of God with power by resurrection from among the corpses. He has said, “All power belongs to Me, in heaven and in earth.” He has said, “Go into all the world […]

A REVIEW OF LOVE WINS OF ROB BELL »

Apprising Ministries has been blessed of Jesus to be used as one of His leading online apologetics and discernment works for coverage of the warped and toxic teachings of EC leaders like the Emerging Church rock star pastor Rob Bell. Sadly, mainstream evangelicalism became spiritually spineless and embraced the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church,  now upgraded to 2.0 with its newer, more […]

THE RIGHT RESPONSE TO PERSECUTION »

Whenever they persecute you in one city, flee to the next; for truly I say to you, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes. (Matthew 10:23) We should never seek our persecution or want to endure it for its sake—or even ostensibly for Jesus’ sake. God […]

5 REASONS TO BE CAUTIOUS WITH TIM KELLER’S THEOLOGY »

The online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries continues warning about, and documenting, the sad slide of largely pretending to be Protestant evangelicalism into becoming what I’ve referred to as The Ecumenical Church Of Deceit (ECoD); and much of the current sorry state of the church visible can be traced back through to the semi-pelagian (at best) […]

SOCIAL JUSTICE: TOO MISSIONAL FOR ANTI-ABORTION GOSPEL MINISTRY? »

By Special Apprising Ministries Correspondent Dustin Segers Pastor, Shepherd’s Fellowship of Greensboro I fully believe that were it not for prayer and a consistent diet of the word, it would be easy to grow cynical of what goes by the name of “evangelicalism” in America.  On the whole, American evangelicalism is very materialistic and individualistic rather […]

LATEST ON FIRESTORM AROUND ROB BELL »

Evangelical churches began using warped and toxic teachings of leaders in the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church—with its “big tent” Progressive Christianity aka Emergence Christianity—such as EC rock star pastor Rob Bell, so for years now they’ve been poisoning their own young, and have advanced Bell right into the very heart of the church visible. Another indication of […]

THE ENDLESSNESS OF HELL »

Incredibly, the worst aspect of hell is not its terrifying description… It is the fact that hell will continue forever. Jesus and his apostles plainly teach the endlessness of hell. Jesus pronounces woes on thos who take no precautions to avoid being “thrown into eternal fire . . . the fire of hell” (Matt. 18:8-9). […]

THE ANNIHILATION OF HELL »

Today [circa 1985], in the Christian world, we see a spectre rising in the greatest of all the [non-Christian] cults; it is the doctrine of universalism. Karl Barth taught it; neo-orthodoxy teaches it, it is the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees—and it reaches out—and Dr. Norman Vincent Peale [mentor to Robert Schuller] has become […]

NEW BOOK MAY CAUSE RIFT AT MARS HILL BIBLE CHURCH OF ROB BELL »

This online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries has been among those who’ve been reporting on the awful decline of mainstream evangelicalism, which made the tragic mistake of embracing the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church—with its “big tent” Progressive Christianity aka Emergence Christianity.   Now, because evangelical churches began using warped and toxic teachings e.g. of […]

CHRISTIAN BEHAVIOR »

By Apprising Ministries correspondent Mike Ratilff of Possessing the Treasure Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother?
