MARK DRISCOLL, ACTS 29 NETWORK, & THE EMERGING CHURCH »

…they are full of things from the east and of fortune-tellers like the Philistines, and they strike hands with the children of foreigners.

DOUG PAGITT AND KEN SILVA »

The online apologetics and discernment work Apprising Ministries has been covering the rise within mainstream squishy evanjellyfish of the sinfully ecumenical neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church with its quasi-universalism in a new version of Progressive Christian theology under their spiritual circus “big tent” Emergence Christianity. As I explained in Emergent Church: A Diseased Tree the discernment ministry Herescope has some excellent […]

JOHN MACARTHUR ON SOLA SCRIPTURA »

First, it is necessary to understand what sola Scriptura does and does not assert. The Reformation principle of sola Scriptura has to do with the sufficiency of Scripture as our supreme authority in all spiritual matters. Sola Scriptura simply means that all truth necessary for our salvation and spiritual life is taught either explicitly or implicitly in […]

THE IDOL OF EVANGELICALISM »

“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.

MEDITATION AWAKENING FOR TRANSFORMATION OF THE GLOBAL FAMILY »

“These are the statutes and rules that you shall be careful to do in the land that the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess, all the days that you live on the earth.” “You shall surely destroy all the places where the nations whom you shall dispossess served their gods, […]

CONTEMPLATIVE SPIRITUALITY/MYSTICISM UNITES THE GLOBAL FAMILY »

And the Lord said to me: “The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I did not send them, nor did I command them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a lying vision, worthless divination, and the deceit of their own minds.” (Jeremiah 14:14) One River That Is God But Many Streams […]

PETER SCAZZERO RECOMMENDING CONTEMPLATIVE/CENTERING PRAYER »

…they are full of things from the east and of fortune-tellers like the Philistines, and they strike hands with the children of foreigners. (Isaiah 2:6) Circle Up The Wagons We’re Heading Home To Rome Evangelicals are quick to praise Charles Spurgeon, who stood tall for the purity of God’s Gospel during the Downgrade Controversy; this […]

DOUG PAGITT SHOWS HIS CHARACTER »

Critics of online apologetics and discernment works such as Apprising Ministries are under the mistaken impression that someone like myself goes “looking for” these issues I’ve been covering these past 5+ years as Jesus has built this ministry of His Gospel. They couldn’t be more wrong.  What usually happens is I’ll receive an email or message […]
