Agglomeration Time!
What is Truth? Some churches have changed what Scripture clearly says so as not to offend.
With today’s culture, don’t forget the true teachings of the false religion, Islam.
We’ve just had Hallowe’en with all the claims about its occultic origin, etc. How about the actual facts of its origin!
Self-Absorbed ‘Christians’ and Their Perceptions of the Bible. Excellent commentary.
Invalid reasons for staying in a church you know teaches false doctrine.
Red Flags On “After Death” Film from Angel Studios
Some good information exposing false teachings of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
The truth about the Pharisees.
There are pastors who have no business being pastors!
How much more apostate can the Roman Catholic Church get????!?! Then there is one of their schools which has decided that God is wrong and men can be women.
The Pope is 100% behind the lie of transgender as he rebels against God. The Babylon Bee sums it up nicely. The Pope also endorses a blasphemous Bible! And that isn’t all.
Kenneth Copeland. I look forward to the day he meets his master—Satan. Here’s a blasphemous stunt which I think proves that Copeland is demon-possessed.
More problems with “The Chosen.”
The Church by the Glades continues to prove that it is NOT a Christian assembly.
These "Deliverance Ministers" are Teaching Doctrines of Demons!

Be Careful About Who Divides the Word
The following is by G. Richard Fisher in his article, The Plight of Ancestral Bondage: Is It Real Deliverance or Just a Radical Delusion, in the July-September issue of Personal Freedom Outreach’s The Quarterly Journal. The article exposes the fraudulent nature of “generational sin” and “deliverance” ministries. While the subject is about the whole fake demon-chasing by the likes of Bob Larson, Neil Anderson, Mark Bubeck, Rebecca Brown, et al, the comments by Fisher are also valid concerning any teachings.
Repeating a falsehood over and over can make it sound like truth. Hitler’s dictum that a lie repeated often enough will begin to sound true applies here. Just who divides the Word and how he divides it really becomes the all-important issue.
The discerning Christian will care who divides the Word for them. He will employ caution and concern when it comes to reading and listening, and will look to those who generally follow good hermeneutics, as well as historical orthodoxy. He will want to put himself under teachers whom he can trust and who hold to the fundamentals of the faith. He will avoid those who ride hobby horses, get off onto tangents, and are sensational for sensationalism’s sake. He will certainly avoid those who boast that they can verbally slap Satan and demons around because Jude 8-11 strongly condemns such conduct. Jude says that such teachers are dreamers who speak evil and speak of what they do not know. He says they are corrupt and totally running under their sinful nature and are like Balaam and Cain.
Christians should avoid these so-called “deliverance ministers” because they are clearly unbiblical, boastful, and spawning uncertainty as well as an unhealthy focus. We are to set our focus on things above - looking unto Jesus (Hebrews 12:2), not looking unto demons. …
It all goes back to who divides the Word and if they do so properly. When someone offers to lead us across a bridge of interpretation, we must be sure we are on the right bridge. Our protection is listening to dependable, historically orthodox teachers who recognize context and the balance of comparing Scripture with Scripture. We should also be praying for God to give us discernment. The commentaries we consult should be safe and sound. They should not smuggle in pagan worldviews and inject things into the text that are not there. Syncretism ends up being the real curse.
It is our responsibility to know where we dine and what we are “eating” and who is doing the serving. Sometimes apologetic ministries are maligned for trying to act as some kind of “Board of Health” for the religious “kitchens” out there. Somebody has to do it. Cutting the Word properly is a biblical mandate and essential to our spiritual health (1 Thessalonians 5:21).
