Apprising Ministries has been among the online apologetics and discernment ministries covering Piper-Warrengate. It all began when Dr. John Piper made the dubious decision to feature Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren, with his quite elastic orthodoxy and twistable multi-tranlation Play-Doh Bible, as a keynote speaker at the DG 2010 conference Think: The Life of the Mind & the Love of God. […]

By Apprising Ministries correspondent Christine Pack of Sola Sisters It used to be that Universalists behaved and stayed in the New Age where they belonged. But sadly, those days are over. And it used to be that a Universalist message was easy to “hear” and distinguish from the exclusive message of Christ. Again, no more. […]

As part of our online apologetics and discernment ministry Apprising Ministries been documenting the New Downgrade within evangelicalism because of its ignominious embrace of the now upgraded Emerging Church 2.0 with its newer, more clearly delineated, postmodern Progressive Christian theology. In addition this new, and not improved, liberal theology—a Liberalism 2.0—is what this sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church will often refer to […]

I want you to realize that the prevailing view in contemporary educational institutions is postmodern. Emergent is postmodern theology. I talked to a college professor from Japan who spoke at a conference here in America that was attended only by other college professors—Christian ones. He said almost to a person those professors were postmodern. They […]

The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.

Your prophets have seen for you false and deceptive visions; they have not exposed your iniquity to restore your fortunes, but have seen for you oracles that are false and misleading. (Lamentations 2:14) Rick Warren Now Bringing Credibility To Word Faith Heresy I told you in Decade Of Destiny With Rick Warren that by carrying […]

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 6:9-10) A Practicing Homosexual Overseeing Episcopal […]

By Apprising Ministries correspondent Chrystal Whitt of Slaughter of the Sheep There are a lot of charismatic followers and defenders out there who are calling solid, Bible-based, discerning Christians “heresy hunters.” The people being targeted with this label (such people as Ingrid Schlueter, Bud Press, Ken Silva, Mike Oppenheimer, Sandy Simpson, Justin Peters, and even little old insignificant me) […]
