This message was originally published 9/22/05 back when I was also writing for the original Slice of Laodicea. If you are relatively new to the Internet part of my ministries in Christ then it is going to be just a little different than you might be accustomed to reading from me. But then again, you […]

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17) Thus Saith God; Or, The Human Authors Of Scripture? Often in discussions today e.g. with outlaw preachers like gay-affirming “pastor” Jay Bakker—affirming that practicing homosexuality is not […]

UPDATE: PERRY NOBLE’S NEWSPRING WORSHIP BAND ROCKS WITH KISS Here at Apprising Ministries you’ve likely heard me mention a new ecumenical evangelical magisterium that seems to be forming. This would then gain real traction with the Elephant Room of curator James MacDonald and cohost Mark Driscoll, both former Gospel Coalition members. It really seems to have begun coalescing […]

Apprising Ministries had pointed out to you that the Elephant Room 2, hosted jointly by now former Gospel Coalition members, James MacDonald and Mark Driscoll, detonated as an explosion within evangelicalism and the aftermath continued spreading shockwaves for some time. There’s little doubt that as a result of this ill-fated ER2, particularly in its mainstreaming of […]

Apprising Ministries first covered disgraced Word Faith revivalist Todd Bentley back in the 2008 piece Todd Bentley Is Absolutely A False Prophet, A Phony, And A Fraud. Here’s the defining issue; in their expose Thousands Flock to Revival in Search of Miracles concerning Todd Bentley and his counterfeit “revival” that went on in Lakeland, FL ABC News, not surprisingly, points […]

Apprising Ministries has been showing you that new ecumenical evangelical magisterium (EEM) member, prophet-leader Steven Furtick, has been greatly influenced by Word Faith prosperity preachers T.D. Jakes and Joel Osteen. Consider Steven Furtick: T.D. Jakes Is My Favorite Preacher In The World, Then there’s Joel Osteen Has Influenced Steven Furtick Longer Than You May Know; and if that wasn’t […]

Apprising Ministries offers that if you don’t think the mainstream of evangelicalism is in a New Downgrade No-Controversy then you’re not paying close enough attention. For example, consider former Gospel Coaliiton members James MacDonald and Mark Driscoll assisted the mainstreaming of Word Faith mogual T.D. Jakes.

As the online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries continues surveying the evangelical landscape the nauseating New Downgrade No-Controversy is looking to be in full swing. We have actually seen that not even the non-negotiable cardinal doctrine of the Holy Trinity has been safe from attack. And this has come from within the Reformed sectors of the church visible. By now you probably know that […]
