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

More Odds and Ends

Long, but interesting article about the defense of the Bible being accurate.


Dismantling 9 “Proofs” of Millions of Years.  The 9 “proofs” are not scientific at all.


The Misplaced Identity of Gay Christianity


When “Sound Doctrine” Gets Redefined.


When a “church” has to decide whether to require monogamy for anyone, let alone leaders, then you know it isn’t a church which follows Christ. The PCUSA denomination has been corrupt from the beginning.  More on the topic.


And if you thought the PCUSA couldn’t get any worse, they are now supporting “sex change” surgery for children, let alone adults.


Mysticism in the Church: Is Mysticism Biblical?


Catholic archbishop praises new mosque, ignores ubiquitous gang rapes by Muslim men.


Then we have a Catholic university having a “very tight relationship” with the Council on American Islamic Relations


An old article about the New Apostolic Reformation but well worth learning why they are aberrant false teachers.


It’s been a while since I’ve reported on false teacher Beth Moore, so here’s another good article exposing her unbiblical nonsense.


Then we have the worst of charismania—pure blasphemy! Although this ranks up there—a megachurch “pastor” who says opposing abortion and gun control is “satanic.


Exposing Mormonism's Latest Deception. Beware of their pretense to Christianity.

Good, Bad and Ugly

Good Stuff


They Progressed From Us… Excellent commentary on today’s church.


Louis Pasteur: The Man Who Said, “Science Brings Men Closer to God


Are There Modern Day Apostles? Paul Washer - Justin Peters -WWUTT


The Quandary of Seeming Biblical Contradictions.


Logic proves that the Biblical God exists


Does Leviticus Command the Death Penalty for Rape Victims? Rejoinder to Dan McClellan.


Why Is Roman Catholicism So Cultic?  Excellent examination.


Why The Bible Is Not Necessary In Roman Catholicism. Another excellent examination off the religion of Papism.


What is “Heresy”? Very good examination by Elizabeth Prata.



BAD STUFF


New series: House of David. May be even worse (if possible) than The Chosen. More about how unbiblical it is.


Are These Sean Feucht Stories True? At All?? This man is a con artist who suckers people into making him quite wealthy. He is a fraud whom no one should follow or listen to.  Oh, and he wants you to send him a lot of money because he needs $25,000 for speakers.


Kris Vallotton is a horrid teacher and if you don’t think so, take 26 minutes to see the type of garbage he teaches.


UGLY STUFF


Chip & Joanna Gaines: Controversy Over LGBTQ+ Family on Magnolia Network. Another examination is a 13-minute video.  And it gets worse.  When they get challenged they take Scripture out of context.  And one last one to round out the story!


Jesse Duplantis is a worst kind of heretic who leads his followers to hell. Take 18 minutes to see just how blasphemous he is.

More Odds and Ends

A good exegetical analysis of Hebrews vs Roman Catholic Eucharist Theology.  Part 1, part 2 and part 3.

Do not take Scripture out of context, nor allow anyone else to do so.


A Biblical Understanding of Race.


Should those teaching false doctrine be contacted before the saints can be warned? (Matthew 18:15). NO.


How Do We Explain the Depraved Thinking in Our Nation? Excellent commentary.


A good apologetic examination of someone’s attack on Scripture.


The Lutheran Church (LCMS) is courting apostasy.


Purgatory: The First of Many Reasons Why I Could Never Be Catholic


A Response to Shiny Happy People. This is in reference to Amazon Prime Video’s series on the Dugger Family. Some interesting thoughts about the situation, IBLP and Bill Gothard.


Regardless of what your church or books you read tell you, there are no more apostles! They existed only in the 1st century.


Why Hymns Matter.


A good apologetic for a culture wrapped up in sexual identity.


The Bible and Homosexuality. An excellent 6 1/2-minute video.


Creation care?


If your church is movie time, flee it. Here’s another example.


To Flee or Not to Flee: Is it Biblical to Flee Blue States?  Yes it is.


When you compromise Genesis, you can decide homosexuality is okay.


More problems with The Gospel Coalition.


The greed fostered by this “church” is unreal; it makes God into a puppet who can be controlled by how much money you donate!. To begin with, Christians do not tithe!!! That was an O.T. rule for Israel only, and it wasn’t just on income. Churches who use the word “tithe” instead of “gifts” or “offerings” (e.g.) are helping to foster this nonsense. 


And Satan laughs.

Agglomeration

The Good - For Education and/or Edification

Why is sex so complicated? Good discussion of love vs sex.

Why modern-day prophets never saw this pandemic coming. Simple answer: because they are false prophets! Good analysis of all that is wrong with the prophetic movement, including how false teacher Michael Brown supports them.


The Charismatic Mishandling Of Mark 16:9-20


More Wolves and False Teachings

More heresy from Rome — the Pope wants to unite with other religions in prayer!

An excellent book review of Experiencing God. It is a dangerous book.

Benny Hinn — it’s God’s fault that pastors fornicate.Hi

Andy Stanley continues to prove what a false teacher he has become. He fails to understand that the faith developed BECAUSE of the Bible — the Old Testament. The Bible was assembled in portions in the FIRST century. WE, that is everyone who has lived since the 1st century, DID learn about the resurrection via the Bible. The gospels WERE the Bible for those in the 1st Century.

Fake healers exposed and challenged.

It’s a long video (2+ hours) but many false teachers/false prophets are exposed.  Kenneth Copeland, one of the main targets, is obviously demon-possessed.

Tony Evans says God needs our permission to intervene on earth!

More evidence that the ELCA Lutheran denomination is heretical.

Hillsong, Changing the Bible one Gender at a time. But what else can you expect from a cult.

Think About It

If anything is contrary to Scripture, it is wrong.
If anything is the same as Scripture, it is not needed.
If anything goes beyond Scripture, it has no authority.

Guidelines for Dealing With Bible Difficulties


The following are the “headlines” for the ten paragraphs in the article, “Ten Guidelines for Dealing with Bible Difficulties,” by Steven B. Cowan, in Areopagus Journal, January 2002, Pg.32-35.  Each “headline” has a good explanation.

One.  Consider the possibility that some discrepancies are the result of transmissional errors.

Two.  Recognize that the Bible uses phenomenal language.

Three.  Do not confuse imprecision with error.

Four.  Pay careful attention to the literary genre of a passage.

Five.  Recognize that differences in parallel accounts do not necessarily imply contradiction.

Six.  Consider that some parallel accounts may not be parallel after all.

Seven.  Recognize that authors do not always record events in chronological order.

Eight.  Pay careful attention to grammar and logic in assessing discrepancies.

Nine.  Consider the literary context of a passage.

Ten.  Do not assume that because a solution is not readily available that there is an error.

Some More Good, Edifying Reading

We are NOT “spiritual Israel.”  I really get tired of being told that we are.  Find it in the Bible, please.  Part 2.

An interesting apologetics site.

Objective moral standards prove the existence of God.

How many of each type animal did Noah bring onto the ark?


 If you’re a Democrat, you’re probably not saved.  I agree 100%


John MacArthur is an excellent teacher, if you easily “tip-toe through the TULIPs."



God in your own image. Interesting overview of many false gods of cults.
