In the Apprising Ministries piece On Contemplative Spirituality and Charismania I told you that the ongoing evangelical fascination with corrupt Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM)–along with its parallel track of charismania–is a major reason why we see the mainstream of professing Prostestant Christendom opening itself up for full fellowship with the apostate Roman Catholic Church. For example, evangelical megapastor Rick Warren is on […]

By Dr. John Gerstner “The doctrine by which the church stands or falls.” So said Martin Luther about justification by faith alone. John Calvin agreed, calling justification by faith the “hinge” of the Reformation. But was that the historic Christian view? One may say generally of the history of the doctrine of justification that solafideanism (justification-by-faith-alone-ism) […]

So much for the so-called miracle of unity. Yesterday I began my in-depth coverage of the latest attempt by the apostate Roman Catholic Church (RCC) to swallow up the professing Christian community in Tony Palmer and Charismaniacs Embracing Pope Francis’ Call for Unity. However as a former Roman Catholic myself I reminded you in The Deceivers of […]

What is the whole papacy but a beautiful false front and a deceptively glittering holiness under which the wretched devil lies in hiding? The devil always desires to imitate God in this way. He cannot bear to observe God speaking. If he cannot prevent it or hinder God’s Word by force, he opposes it with […]

This is a bit of a follow up to the Apprising Ministries article James Robison to Pope Francis “In Christ We Are Brothers” where I showed you the video evidence of Robison’s repugnant apostasy on his Life Today TVy program for Monday, May 5, 2014 featuring fellow charismatic “Bishop” Tony Palmer. As I showed you previously in the 2011 piece James Robison and Rick […]

Formerly, when our hearts were blinded by errors in teachings from Rome, we imagined that God was a salesman who sold his grace in exchange for our our works and achievements. Now, however, since the light of the gospel has dawned, we know that we are credited as righteous only by faith in Christ. Our […]

In Rick Warren Asks Us To Fast And Pray For God To Help Apostates Elect Their New Pope, just about a year ago, Apprising Ministries brought you another vivid illustration of an evangelical who is either disingenuous or ignorant of the damnable differences between Rome and the Protestant Reformation. Sadly, pretending to be Protestants like Warren and SBC-promoted quasi-pastrix […]

\ Toward the end of the twentieth century, Roman Catholic and Protestant leaders met frequently to discuss the similarities and the differences between the two groups. In 1994, a significant document, “Evangelicals and Catholics Together: The Christian Commission in the Third Millennium,” was released. In 1997 a document was released by some of the same […]

By Dr. Bill Jackson “Insistence on the visibility of the Church has been a standard feature of Roman Catholic ecclesiology from the late Middle Ages until the middle of the present century.” – Avery Cardinal Dulles, S.J., Models of the Church. What is the significance of these dates? The “late Middle Ages” saw in the […]

Apprising Ministries brought you this foolish tweet earlier from the sinfully ecumenical Rick Warren earlier in Rick Warren Asks Us To Fast And Pray For God To Help Apostates Elect Their New Pope: (source) Now at Christian News Network in Warren’s Ecumenical Call to Fast, Pray for Cardinals Seeking New Pope Called ‘Real Tragedy’ Heather Clark brings us […]
