UPDATE: WORLD VISION REVERSES DECISION TO HIRE GAY CHRISTIANS IN SAME-SEX MARRIAGES I’ve told you before here at Apprising Ministries that there’s a very dark and threatening same-sex storm looming just barely off the coast of your own local evangelical church; and it’s, right now, beginning to approach hurricane force. Professing Christians in the mainstream of the church […]

Apprising Ministries first came onto the Net nine years ago to help pioneer the mission field of online apologetics and discernment ministry. Then my focus was upon the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church—with its “big tent” Progressive Christianity aka Emergence Christianity. Since that time, as most all “new” things eventually do, these rebels against the final authority […]

“And my people are bent to backsliding from me.”—Hosea 11:7 Is the present-day church following the Word and ways of the Lord and abhorring all that is otherwise? Is the fear of God, the love for truth and for God’s glory, and the desire to walk according to all God’s commandments prospering among God’s church? […]

  As a reader, you may recall SBC Pastors Conference 2014 with Rick Warren, Francis Chan, and James MacDonald the other day here at Apprising Ministries. Let me remind you that, among other questionable things, James MacDonald would dream up the Elephant Room (ER), where he became closely allied with Mark Driscoll. I’ve also told you that these ER conferences have since […]

  Among the issues Apprising Ministries has been tracking for you the past couple of years, during what may one day be known as the New Downgrade No-Controversy, is the formation of a self-appointed new Evangelical Ecumenical Magisterium (EEM) largely comprised of megachurch pastors like prophet-pastor Steven Furtick. I explained to you recently in Indoctrinating Children into the Cult of Steven Furtick that […]

You’ve likely noticed here lately at Apprising Ministries that I’ve been spending quite a bit of time covering the pitiful position of far too many mainstream evangelical leaders when it comes to promoting, and even partnering with, Word Faith prosperity preachers like “trinitarian-modalist” T.D. Jakes. To be a bit more specific, the people to whom I refer […]

Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, ‘You shall […]

Or maybe not; apparently he’s backtracking and not sure now. As you may know Apprising Ministries has been monitoring the rapid apostatizing going on within mainstream evangelicalism; and the fact that rebels against God’s Word like Brian Houston are gaining respect within wider evangelicalism is yet another example. A couple of examples; just a few days […]

In recent Apprising Ministries articles like T.D. Jakes Repents Of Word Faith Heresy And Mythology? and T.D. Jakes Prsents Word Faith Leadership Conference I covered a very critical issue concerning the move to make a mainstream evangelical out of “trinitarian-modalist” and Word Faith prosperity preacher T.D. Jakes. You’ll see e.g. in James MacDonald Was A Bit Late In Mainstreaming T.D. […]

“For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse; for It Is written, ‘Cursed is everyone who does not abide by all the things written in the book of the law to do them.’ But that in the law no one is justified with God is clear, because ‘the […]
