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. The Elephant Room each participated in also helped launch his […]

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 […]

I started covering this at Apprising Ministries in Tim Tebow “Jesus” Pose Stirs Controversy. As I said, I followed the Tim Tebow phenomenon with much interest as it developed last year. This is because for years I served God as a head football coach at the middle school, and then later, at the high school level so I know […]

This just in from Internet News headquarters, where our motto is: If it’s news; it’s news to us. Dateline Anywhere USA; maybe even Your Town: This just in…the world’s gone mad. Ok, that’s not so new; but hey lookie there, the Druids are back. From the Associated Press by way of Yahoo News: Druids have been worshipping […]

As spiritual darkness continues falling Apprising Ministries has been doing what we can to alert the church visible to the increasing syncretism going on within apostatizing evangelicalism. One clear example would certainly be the wackiness of the Word Faith movement actually garnering support within the mainstream, e.g. Steven Furtick Bringin’ On Word Faith And The Pastrixes. Many […]

As Apprising Ministries monitors the Net and social media one of the trends I’m seeing is postmodernism’s effects slithering more deeply into the professing Christian community. Combined with the sappy sentimentality spread by practice of Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism people are now deciding issues by their feelings. My point being, it simply doesn’t matter one iota how we may feel about a […]

Unfortunately, spiritual darkness grows and so Apprising Ministries continues monitoring the apostasy metastasizing within mainstream evangelicalism for theChristian Research Network. While this is going on I’m watching a sickening syncretism that seems to be spreading through increasing charismania and corrupt Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM). Pietism inherent in the CSM of Foster-Willardism is causing people to jettison the proper Christian spirituality of sola Scriptura in place of […]

Jude 1-25 Jude, “the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James,” speaks to us in the tone of an ancient prophet. His voice is that of Elijah or John the Baptist. It is “the voice of one crying in the wilderness.” He speaks to the declining churches of his day. He speaks to the Church of […]

The following by Dr. Gary Gilley, pastor of Southern View Chapel, is republished at Apprising Ministries with permission: There is probably no Christian in modern times better known or more influential than Clive Staples Lewis. Born in Belfast in the year 1899, Lewis would write dozens of books on a variety of topics before his […]
