Apprising Ministries is in agreement with pastor John Chisham and let me also point out that while close may count in horseshoes, when it comes to someone’s eternal destiny, it still misses by an eternity. How tragic that the Body of Christ continues being so misrepresented by such a semi-pelagian self-seeking lover of the self as Rick Warren. I echo […]

Taste and see that the Lord is good; and before I share the below words of encouragement from Charles Spurgeon, which were in my morning devotions just today, there’s something I wish to say as a pastor. Years ago when Dr. Walter Martin was first rising up through the ranks in the early 60’s doing counter-cult evangelism […]

The Emergent Church leaders like Doug Pagitt are truly quite excited about discovering God in “the Other” and his pal Rob Bell, the Elvis of Emerging, is preaching the need to become globalcentric because God is bigger than any of “our tribes.” My question is: If existential feeling is our criterion for accepting the subjective experiences […]

They know nothing, they understand nothing; their eyes are plastered over so they cannot see, and their minds closed so they cannot understand. (Isaiah 44:18) Seeking Spiritual Loopholes To An Inclusive Global Religion Of The Love Of Self Dr. Samir Selanovic, who was serving on the Coordinating Group for Emergent Village, contributes a chapter called “The […]

“I will feed My flock and I will lead them to rest,” declares the Lord GOD. I will seek the lost, bring back the scattered, bind up the broken and strengthen the sick; but the fat and the strong I will destroy I will feed them with judgment.” (Ezekiel 34:15-16) The PostLiberal Cult Of The […]

Here’s another example ala “Bible Scholar” Rick Warren Is Reversing The Reformation of an evangelical leader, in this case president of Fuller Theological Cesspool Seminary Dr. Richard Mouw, simply declaring the Protestant Reformation over. In his blog post Evangelical Ecumenicism Mouw muses: Evangelicals should not have allowed the latitudinarian Protestants to co-opt the label “ecumenical.” We too […]

A couple of years ago in the Afterword of A Different Jesus? The Christ of the Latter-day Saints (ADJ), Dr. Richard Mouw president of Fuller Theological Seminary, says of practicing Mormon Robert Millet—in fact, a top LDS apologist: I think that an open-minded Christian reader of this book will sense that Bob Millet is in fact trusting in the […]

Here are the Emergent “Holiday” Dancers celebrating Chrisma-Kwanz-ukkah aka the ‘good news’ that people in all religions are actually following Jesus regardless of their belief in Jesus. This Post-Modern interpretive disco dance joyously recognizes God in “other” and compassionately reminds us that “Jesus is bigger than all of our religions and tribes.” Send your own […]

Yes, you read that right and if the “Christian” clowns among the leadership of the Emerging Church get their way of finding God in ”the Other” this kind of lunacy in the Lord’s Name will become more commonplace within apostatizing evangelicalism. Milwaukee, Wisconsin Journal Century informs us: Each Sunday, children gather in the fellowship hall at Faith Presbyterian […]

Saddleback Church Pastors Using Rob Bell Teachings here at Apprising Ministries clearly showed that Emerging Church icon and teacher of corrupt Contemplative Sprituality/Mysticism (CSM) Rob Bell has penetrated deeply into the mainstream of the evangelical community. So far so that Bell’s weekly sermons are recommended, and his Nooma DVDs sold, by pastors of the highly influential Saddleback Church (SC) of Rick Warren, which is aligned with the […]
