We who preach the gospel must not think of ourselves as public relations agents sent to establish good will between Christ and the world. We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum. A.W. Tozer
Therefore let God-inspired Scripture decide between us; and on whichever side be found doctrines in harmony with the word of God, in favor of that side will be cast the vote of truth. --Basil of Caesarea
Once you learn to discern, there's no going back. You will begin to spot the lie everywhere it appears.

I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service. 1 Timothy 1:12

Apologetics News

I still have my daily readings to keep up with what’s happening in the realm of apologetics and there have been some articles I decided really needed to be shared with my readers.

Elizabeth Prata, over at The End Time blog, has written a two-part examination of false teacher Beth Moore. The first part asks if Beth Moore has only “drifted” only recently (no) while the second one examines Moore’s “spiritual biography.”

To go along with Elizabeth’s articles I discovered there is a new book examining Moore’s teachings. Written by G. Seth Dunn, the book is titled, “So Long Beth Moore, You’ve Been a Bad Friend to Us.

So, the latest news about Moore again proves she is not qualified to teach; she claims white supremacy is rampant in much of the church.

Changing subject, Bethel Church casts out the demon of racism! Of course they use occult means to do so.

I’ve never heard of Bob Goff, let alone his book, Everybody Always. Clinton Adams wrote an excellent review.

Christian Apologetics & Research Ministry has an excellent article exposing the false teachings about “transubstantiation.”

Answers In Genesis explains why 2 Samuel 12 does not support polygamy.

Finally, the apostate ELCA denomination is changing its name; it must be true because I read it on the Internet.

Hi Glenn,

Thanks for the AIG article. Good reminder that while the Bible describes many sinful practices, it does not mean God condones the same.

Babylon Bee - if only it were true! That said, they've had quite a number of postings recently that have been "too close for comfort" to reality. When the line between satire and reality is that blurred, you know you're living in some very crazy times.

Enjoy your "relaxing" retirement. :)

Glenn,

How are you and Jill after those devastating storms in Iowa? We read the news story. Have you both been affected. It's horrible that so much damage happened, but it's hardly mentioned in the news.

Hi Carolyn,

We are south of Cedar Rapids (the worst hit) by 13 miles. We did get winds up to about 80 mph here and were without power for 16.5 hrs, but all we lost was a big ash tree and the fence it crashed into, and another fence lost sections so the whole thing will need replace. And we lost lots of branches off other trees.

However, C.R. had winds over 100 mph and many have said it looked like a war zone. Hundreds, maybe thousands of trees down, many through power lines or into houses and cars. Tall buildings downtown have had windows blown out. Many sections of town are still without power. You can imagine how many semis on the highway were blown over.

Glenn,

I'm glad to hear you weren't as hard hit as CR and are ok. What a terrible storm.
