Unregenerate church members might spell R.I.P. for SBC

Posted on by Don

Having been a member of that denomination, at this point I have to agree. Southern Baptists are going the way of other mainline churches. Doctrine is being downplayed and members just show up occasionally to stay in touch. Only a small core group shows up for important church gatherings. Most have never read the Bible, few can discuss concepts in the Bible and no members are held accountable for their actions. But, there are quite a few exceptions in the rural areas.

Unregenerate church members might spell R.I.P.: “Despite the doctrinal victories of the conservative resurgence, the Southern Baptist Convention is dying, contends Jim Elliff, founder and president of Christian Communicators Worldwide.

The Growing Phenomena of American Christian Hebrew Cults

Posted on by Don

I think all Christians need to be aware of this new “Christian” cult called the Hebrew Roots Movement.

The Growing Phenomena of American “Hebrew” Cults: “The Hebrew Roots Movement is an American aggregate of home based Bible studies with various names, led often by women. The authentic Christian is challenged to write about such groups, because they all have different names, and “facilitators” argue that many attendees “believe different things” when challenged with sound doctrine. However, the spirit at work is revealed conclusively as core convictions are shared by “facilitators” and leaders of the movement.”

Needed: A BOLD ORTHODOXY

Posted on by Don

Great article Steve on the Emergent movement

Needed: A BOLD ORTHODOXY …the biblical answer to the “PC” State of EMERGENT evangelicalism – CWN: “What is needed in today’s religious climate and culture is a bold orthodoxy. The Emergent Church is proud of their ‘humble’ orthodoxy. Truth to them is liquid, fluid, changing, evolving, and must remain adaptable to the times. By comparison, they mock the Scriptures as being God’s infallible, inerrant Word; they wrest the gospel of its exclusiveness; they misrepresent the character of the One Triune God; they reduce the ministry of Jesus to Him being a social engineer or a compassionate advocate for the rights of the oppressed; they deny the existence of hell, penal substitutionary atonement, justification by faith alone, and that church shouldn’t primarily be about the glory of God, but about us.”

Lutherans in the Twilight Zone

Posted on by Don

Nothing surprises me anymore as pseudo Christianity enters the Twilight Zone and mounts the Beast.

Lutherans in the Twilight Zone – CWN: “Sadly and unfortunately, the ELCA has taken a cowardly and unbiblical approach to this volatile issue. They, obviously, need to make up their minds as to whether they are going to obey God and His Word or plant their feet firmly in mid-air of post-modern rationalism. A wise man told me years ago that, “when you try to appease everyone you will please no one.”

The Emergent Manifesto for a new age religion

Posted on by Don

I think it is fairly clear from scripture that true Bible believing Christians will one day become the targets of other religious people who have played the harlot with “new age” pagan mysticism and an all ways lead to God mentality. Frankly, they will be glad to get rid of us if we do depart in the rapture. If we do not, or if some are left behind they will certainly want to eliminate us from the earth thinking they are doing God a favor.

Revelation is clear that persecution will come when the fifth seal is opened and it is also clear that all the blood of the saints of the earth is found within the woman who rides the Beast of Revelation 17.… continue reading

Carlton Pearson says nobody goes to hell and becomes a heretic

Posted on by Don

You cannot teach things contrary to what God said and be regarded as a teacher of the Christian faith. Carlton Pearson was a heretic long before he more recently proved it to his own congregation and his denomination. He was in the heretical name it and claim it Word Faith Movement that is so prevalent on TBN. Is it any wonder that these unstable men go from one heresy to the next? With Carlton the defining moment came when he came to believe that the Bible was not the world of God?? Now why would a “believer” ever believe that? Obviously someone told him the Bible was the world of God sometime during his life but he never ever found out the truth for himself.… continue reading

Pope says Protestants are not in the Body of Christ

Posted on by Don

I hope you ecumenically minded Protestants realized what this Pope just spelled out. He said that Protestant clergy are not ordained and they are therefore not priests in the one true Church. He also said that the means of salvation are not found in those churches. Thus, no matter how you want to spin it the Pope just said that all Protestant Christians are not saved unless they return to the apostolic authority of the Catholic Church.

Some of you that thought you could fellowship with this church as fellow Christians should now see that you have been deceived. In Catholicism there is only one true church, it is their church.… continue reading

Erwin McManus’s False Teachings

Posted on by Don

This will get to the heart of the matter about the heresy within the emergent church movement. In a nut shell their goal is a Jesus religion that cares little about the Biblical Jesus or His words. They plan to reinvent Christianity so it will fit right in with the postmodern generation taught that there are no moral absolutes. This is why this movement will be identified with the harlot who rides the Beast in Revelation.

Erwin McManus’s False Teachings  “Erwin McManus has made it crystal clear that he hates Christianity. This is very well documented. He has said, “The greatest enemy of the movement of Jesus Christ is Christianity,” and “My goals is to destroy Christianity as a world religion and be a recatalyst for the movement of Jesus Christ.”[1]

United Church of Christ cult (UCC) backs same-sex marriage

Posted on by Don

Which continues to show that the UCC denomination has no regard for Biblical truths. I think it would only be fair to the cults if they also were now labeled a Christian cult.

BBC NEWS Americas US Church backs same-sex marriage: “The million-strong United Church of Christ (UCC) has become the first major US Christian denomination to come out in support of gay marriage. The million-strong United Church of Christ (UCC) has become the first major US Christian denomination to come out in support of gay marriage. “

Erwin McManus’ Real Position on the Authority of Scripture

Posted on by Don

Just some documentation on the postmodern doublespeak of Emergent church leader Erwin McManus

Erwin McManus’ Real Position on the Authority of Scripture : “When challenged openly, Erwin is quick to defend himself by making “orthodox” statements like, “the Scriptures are God’s authoritative word to us.” But then he turns around and train his leaders to perpetuate the unregenerate mind of the culture in their own circles of church leadership, telling their followers that the Word of God is God’s word “to us” and for us, and is all about us; that it means, more or less, whatever you think it means.

Truth replaced by pluralism

Posted on by Don

Berit brilliantly exposes the interfaith movement for what it really is. It is apostasy from the only true gospel and its way of salvation through Jesus Christ alone. It is replaced by an all inclusive world religion where everyone worships the God that man invents with his own mind.

Pentecost was not a legend it was a reality. Pentecost did not reverse the error of Babel because Babel is rising again in the world today among unbelievers in movements like the interfaith agenda. Pentecost is for believers who enter into the body of Christ and the new covenant. Those that were indwelt by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost had to turn from worshiping false gods and believe that Jesus was the only way to God.… continue reading

Is it time for a street fight?

Posted on by Don

What a radical idea. Dave proposes that leaders in Christianity actually direct their followers to take effective social action to stop the Godless perverted agenda that has taken over our society.

Don’t hold your breath Dave. “Christianity” made them leaders in the first place because these leaders reflect their own values – the values of Laodicean materialistic cultural pseudo-Christianity.

In other words, I am saying the Christianity that you think exists in Western Christianity is now mostly a cultural illusion.

Dave Daubenmire — Is It Time for a Street fight?: “But here is the Truth. We lack the courage and the desire to do it.… continue reading

Grave statistics that explain how serious the problem is among Christian adults

Posted on by Don

This survey obviously points out the real problem in our nation, unbelief or a departure from the faith, AKA apostasy.

An Urgent Report! Code Blue: Churched Students and Families in Final Throes of Worldview Crisis – CWN: “Researchers of the problem continue to come up with increasingly grave statistics that explain how serious the condition is. Among Christian adults:

• 64% believe moral truth depends on the situation;
• 60% believe male/female co-habitation outside of marriage is acceptable;
• 55% believe a good person can earn his or her salvation;
• 44% believe Jesus Christ committed sins while on earth.[1]… continue reading

Having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof – God does nothing supernatural

Posted on by Don

Paul tells Timothy in his second letter what it will be like in the last days:

2 Tim 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times
shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous,
boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent,
fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady,
highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a
form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6
For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly
women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and
never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

Apostasy In the Church

Posted on by Don

Apostasy in the Church, by Don Koenig
The reason for this article
Most of the major Christian denominations have deviated from biblical Christianity in one way or another. It is not the purpose of this article to point a finger at any one group, or to tell true Christians to get out of their denomination or not to fellowship. I understand that this article will not win me any popularity contest but very few others are talking about the apostasy in the church institutions that identifies with Christianity and the practices within that deviate from true biblical Christianity.The one true Church of God is interwoven in all Christian denominations.
