Since squishy evanjellyfish has now followed the mortally wounded mainline denominations out of the closet with its man-love of heart murmur spirituality at the expense the God-centered spirituality of sola Scriptura, Apprising Ministries will give you a peek at its bleak future of division and compromise of God’s Word. Thanks to its embracing the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult […]

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! (Isaiah 5:20) And You Can Thank The Emerging Church Over the past couple of years Apprising Ministries has been covering gay-affirming “pastor” Jay Bakker of a sad church social club […]

By Apprising Ministries correspondent Mike Ratilff of Possessing the Treasure For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, […]

This online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries has been blessed of Jesus to be used as one of His “go-to” ministries in the area of the ne0-Gnostic corruption called Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM), which is now pandemic within mainstream evangelicalism through its foolish embrace of the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church with its quasi-universalism in a new version […]

Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. (Matthew 7:13) The entrance is of crucial importance for every human being. By default every human being enters this life through the wide door and begins life’s journey […]

“But Jeshurun grew fat, and kicked; you grew fat, stout, and sleek; then he forsook God who made him and scoffed at the Rock of his salvation. They stirred him to jealousy with strange gods; with abominations they provoked him to anger. They sacrificed to demons that were no gods, to gods they had never known, […]

Apprising Ministries now brings you a follow up to More Questions Concerning Dr. John Piper where I reminded you that when Dr. Piper made the ill-advised decision to invite Leadership Network’s propped-up Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren to DG 2010 as a keynote speaker it set off a rippling effect where people, and not merely discernment ministries, have started to look a little closer at his theology, educational background, and associations; […]

As Apprising Ministries covers the slide into apostasy within mainstream evangelcialism we can observe Purpose Driven Pope Rick Warren, a most prominent “Protestant” Southern Baptist minister, is Double-Minded On The Reformation And Roman Catholicism; or take the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church with its new version of Progressive Christian theology under their spiritual circus “big tent” Emergence Christianity. Part of its legacy already is creating the […]

I’ve pointed out before that the Lord chose to raise up Apprising Ministries as an online apologetics and discernment work; as such, it’s a large part on my mission here to cover trends developing within the church visible. Unfortunately we live in a time where, in my opinion, a tsunami of apostasy—likely driven by 1 Peter 4:17 judgments—is rapidly heading […]

The first beginnings of the work of grace in a sinner are generally exceedingly small. It is like the mixture of leaven with a lump of dough: A single sentence of a sermon… A single verse of Holy Scripture… A word of rebuke from a friend… A casual religious remark overheard… A tract given by […]
