Some men came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching the brothers: “Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by Moses, you cannot be saved.” This brought Paul and Barnabas into sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to […]

A man-centered gospel is the belief that the determining factor in whether or not a man is eternally saved, in the end, relies (at some level) upon an act of his own will i.e. human decision. This is often called synergism because it is thought to be a cooperative effort between God and man. While […]

People continue asking, “Did Vatican II change the dogma of Roman Catholic Church concerning what they teach about the Church and salvation?” And it seems that no matter how many times we try and tell people that it did not they continue to ask. So in this article I now ask a question in return: Will the pope do? Apprising Ministries has covered […]

There is a major myth perpetually perpetrated by papal pretenders and their apostate Roman Catholicism that when we read the “holy and catholic church” in the ancient creeds this is actually a reference to the Roman Catholic Church (RCC). When the truth is the RCC itself is a false religious system, a pseudo-Christianity, which Dr. John […]

With all the revisionist history going on today and “Protestant” evangelicalism’s sordid lust affair with Roman Catholic mystics and their Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism this short post here at Apprising Ministries is to draw to your attention to the fact that Martin Luther himself considered Roman Catholicism apostate. And, um, to put it that way is actually being kind. Here’s […]

As one who has been studying the origin of the Bible, apologetics and Comparative Religion for the better part of twenty-one years I had the privilege of being led of the Lord to the excellent defence of the historic orthodox Christian faith put forth by the Dr. Walter Martin (1928-1989). A small portion of my studies involved his teachings, […]

Soon after apostolic times there came the old Roman rubbish, which in the end proved a worse hindrance to the gospel than all the errors which had preceded it. This Popish rubbish was found in layers; first one doctrinal error, and then another, and then another, and then another, and then another, until at this […]

Many man-centered pied pipers of “Protestant” postevangelicalism and the Emerging Church continue a repudiation of Sola Scriptura in their sordid lust affair with spiritually corrupt Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism, which flowered in the antibiblical monastic traditions of apostate Roman Catholicism. In their desire for existential experiences centered on the self and a phony form of “unity” they have turned to the mystic speculations of spurious […]

With what indignation, then, must the Lord look down upon that apostate harlot, called the Romish Church, when, in all her sanctuaries, there are pictures and images, relics and slivines, and poor infatuated beings are even taught to bow before a piece of bread. In this country, Popish idolatry is not so barefaced and naked […]

Because of its views on Tradition Rome also rejects most of the great attributes of canonical Scripture which Protestantism holds in the highest esteem, namely, Scripture’s self-canonization, its inerrancy, its necessity, its self-attestation, its sufficiency, its perspicuity, and its finality. So historic Protestantism and Roman Catholicism do not share the same Bible, either extensively as […]
