One of the trends I’ve noticed over the past couple of years here at Apprising Ministries is how far the effects of the ill-fated Church Growth Movement have spread. I’ve told you before that mainstream evangelicalism is only just beginning to pay a heavy price for its foolish embrace of the sinfully ecumenical Emergent Church. Now there’s a […]

Apprising Ministries has long been a leading critic of the semi-pelagian (at best) doctrine of Southern Baptist megachurch pastor Rick Warren. In articles like Rick Warren And Teachings Of Demons I’ve also clearly documented his sinful ecumenicism as well. Of course that’s merely one of the fruits within apostatizing evangelicalism because of its foolish fascination with corrupt Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism. Now I point you […]

“Do two walk together, unless they have agreed to meet?” (Amos 3:3) The Lord Will Always See Through Anyone’s Attempt At “File Cabinet Orthodoxy” I’ve pointed out before that the Lord chose to raise up Apprising Ministries as an online apologetics and discernment work; as such, it’s a large part on my mission here to cover […]

And when they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah, and God struck him down there because of his error, and he died there beside the […]

O men, how long shall my honor be turned into shame? How long will you love vain words and seek after lies? (Psalm 4:2) Mysticism Opens The Door For Globalism  It’s simply an indisputable fact that, even now, a part of its spiritually lurid legacy of the sinfully ecumenical Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church is its fueling the current fad of Protestant evangelicals practicing […]

The following Critical Issues Commentary by Bob DeWaay, pastor of Twin City Fellowship, is republished at Apprising Ministries with permission:    “He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead; so that He Himself might come to have first place in everything” (Colossians 1:18) Several months […]

The online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries has been covering the rise of the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emerging Church within mainstream squishy evanjellyfish.  As I explained in Emergent Church: A Diseased Tree the discernment ministry Herescope has some excellent articles that uncover the real truth about the actual beginnings of the Emergent Church through Leadership […]

Apprising Ministries points you to a few interesting pieces today, which because of postmodernism and interspirituality seem to intersect the neo-liberal cult of the Emerging Church. First, from the Christian Research Network: Apologist Chris Rosebrough’s must read article “Fascism Reborn” begins: Sixty-seven years ago, the combined blood, treasure and matériel of the free nations of Western Civilization […]

 By now you likely know the online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries has been among those who’ve been reporting on an ill-advised decision by Dr. John Piper to bring Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren into the Desiring God Conference 2010 as the keynote speaker. Unfortunately it got even worse when Dr. Piper defended his decision: At root I think [Rick Warren] is theological and doctrinal […]

“For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) The Reforming (Reinvention?) Of Rick Warren Apprising Ministries reminds you that in John Piper’s March 31, 2010 video defense of his wrong decision […]
