The superstition in the Roman Catholic Church never ceases to amaze me. Their whole ideology of exorcism has been unbiblical from the start, but it just keeps getting more and more ridiculous. A priest performed an exorcism over a whole town from a helicopter! Does he really think he affected any demons? Come on, Catholics, where is your protest over this nonsense?!? Aren’t you the least bit embarrassed? It’s no wonder the world makes fun of the Christian faith when they see such antics.
OH BOY!! Willow Creek, that bastion of the market-driven mentality, just held a “Leadership Conference,” where guest speakers included MORMONS!!! And Brian Houston of Hillsong, to name a few. Well, when you think of your assembly as a business organization instead of a place for believers to gather for corporate worship, edification and mutual support, I guess anything goes.
Anyone still in the United Methodist Church really has to justify why they are part of a denomination which is so deep in apostasy. Now we have a “Methodist Healthcare Ministries” providing almost half-a-million dollars to Planned Parenthood! Talk about dishonoring God!!!!
How often have you heard the saying, “Preach the Gospel, If Necessary Use Words”? I’ve always thought it was a very stupid thing to say, but it usually comes from those who think they are more “holy” in someway because they promote the social gospel rather than the gospel which saves. Take a look at Steven Kozar’s post — it hits the nail on the proverbial head.
Christian Missionary Alliance seems to be going deep into the whole mystical/contemplative movement. Be forewarned.
Elizabeth Prata has an excellent, short commentary on Henry Blackaby’s Experiencing God.
Midwest Christian Outreach’s blog article this week gave me a good laugh. It’s about how we end up laughing at some of the foolishness of the cults — because it can be so absurd!! The Jehovah’s Witnesses’ “New World Translation” is used as an example of some really silly things.
Lastly, one of the best articles this past week comes from Pamela Couvrette: “The Cult of Personality Under the Evangelical Limelight.” She hits a lot of false teachers with this one — don’t miss it.
