MacArthur emerges againt the emergent church

Posted on by Don

The emerging church will emerge into the world church that rides the Beast in Revelation. Hear what John MacArthur has to say about the emergent church movement.

Author and pastor sounds warning about ’emergent church’ (OneNewsNow.com): “In his book The Truth War; Fighting for Certainty in an Age of Deception, Dr. John MacArthur sounds a warning about the growing influence of the emerging church movement. The battle for truth, he says, is raging not only in society, but throughout the church.
‘I think the emergent church, at its foundation, is unwilling to acknowledge propositional truth,’ MacArthur says. ‘And their spin is that the Bible is not that clear.

Pope wants the Mass in Latin

Posted on by Don

Every time I get stupid enough to think that the Pope seems to be moving in a more orthodox Christian direction he regress to doctrines that leads me to think he knows nothing about true Christianity. What will bringing back Latin mumble jumbo in the Mass do other than satisfy feelings of nostalgia for those who grew up on this mindless ritual?

The Catholic Mass was put into the common language so that people could understand what the priest was doing and saying. Now this Pope wants to make it all mystical again. The correct position to take if he ever wants to start on a path to unite Christianity would be to do away with the Mass altogether since the Mass is not supported by scripture.… continue reading

Russia is going fascist with black shirted Nashi

Posted on by Don

I did not know about the “Nashi“. It certainly appears that Russia is going fascist. The old men are being killed off with alcohol and the young men are becoming like Nazis. If you sum up what they are doing today in Russia it makes for a very compelling argument that Russia will play out the prophecy in Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39 in about 10 to 20 years. The world is not becoming the wonderful utopia the liberal optimists and dominionists keep telling us is coming? Do you really wish to believe global warming is the biggest threat to earth when in reality the biggest threat by far is evil forces using willing people?… continue reading

Truth replaced by pluralism

Posted on by Don

Berit brilliantly exposes the interfaith movement for what it really is. It is apostasy from the only true gospel and its way of salvation through Jesus Christ alone. It is replaced by an all inclusive world religion where everyone worships the God that man invents with his own mind.

Pentecost was not a legend it was a reality. Pentecost did not reverse the error of Babel because Babel is rising again in the world today among unbelievers in movements like the interfaith agenda. Pentecost is for believers who enter into the body of Christ and the new covenant. Those that were indwelt by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost had to turn from worshiping false gods and believe that Jesus was the only way to God.… continue reading

Hezbollah takes root in South America

Posted on by Don

Hello Washington..hello America… anyone home? We know this is going on and yet the US government continues to allow millions of people to walk right in through Mexico. Obviously, it is only a matter of time before we have major terrorist action on our soil. People in the US better start thinking about the people they put in charge because life in the US is about to change radically.

Hezbollah builds a Western base – Nightly News with Brian Williams – MSNBC.com: “CIUDAD DEL ESTE, Paraguay – The Iranian-backed Hezbollah militia has taken root in South America, fostering a well-financed force of Islamist radicals boiling with hatred for the United States and ready to die to prove it, according to militia members, U.S.

Turkey is becoming an Islamist state

Posted on by Don

This is something to watch because Turkey is one of the nations to come against Israel in the war of Ezekiel 38 and 39. All the the other nations near Israel that come with Gog are already Islamic and see Israel as the common enemy.

Will Turkey become an Islamist state? Jerusalem Post: “Turkey, the world’s prime example of a mainly Muslim country as a secular democratic state, may be losing that status. For the first time, a member of an Islamic party stands poised to win the presidency. And the upcoming parliamentary elections are likely to result in yet another victory for the Islamic-oriented government.

Hank Hanegraff thinks premillennialism is a fad that has run its course

Posted on by Don

I received this email about Hank Hanegraff I thought it might be of interest to some.

I first would like to thank you for your very informative and skillfully created website. I find it a very useful tool for defending the faith. I live in Wisconsin in the Milwaukee county area and can listen to Hank Hanegraff radio show on my drive home from work. I find him palatable when he is not talking about the End Times. Unfortunately today (4/17/07) he was promoting another new book on his Preterist views. I was about to change the station when he began telling a story about a man in South Carolina that gave up his faith because he believed Jesus was a false Prophet based on the prophecy that this Generation will not pass away.… continue reading

Mormons deceive themselves, they are not Christians

Posted on by Don

I guess Mormons can call themselves anything they want, but saying you are Christians and actually being Christians are two different things.

I have great problems with Mormon beliefs, they are not at all compatible with true Christianity. That is why Christians say Mormons are not Christian. They have a Christ not found in the Bible and a path to salvation not found in the Bible. Since they do not believe the essential doctrines of the Christian faith we can hardly say that Mormons are brothers in Christ.

Salt Lake Tribune – Mormons: We are Christians

Mormon beliefs about God and Jesus Christ make them Christians, no matter what critics say.

Jews Revive the Sanhedrin

Posted on by Don

The plans are in place. They are only waiting for permission from government to restart the animal sacrifices.

Jews Revive the Sanhedrin with Plans for a Passover Sacrifice — Beliefnet.com
In a donated apartment concealed among the narrow streets of the Jerusalem suburb of Nahlaot, 13 Orthodox Jewish men meet every Tuesday to debate matters of Jewish law. They are the management team of a larger developing Sanhedrin, or religious court, in Israel.And they plan to sacrifice sheep on the Temple Mount on the day before or one month after Passover, which starts at sundown April 2.

Scientists create sheep that is 15 percent human

Posted on by Don

This practice could bring the killing of many people through great pestilences and through the beasts of the earth that is prophesied in Revelation.

Now scientists create a sheep that’s 15% human the Mail on Sunday: “the development is likely to revive criticisms about scientists playing God, with the possibility of silent viruses, which are harmless in animals, being introduced into the human race.
Dr Patrick Dixon, an international lecturer on biological trends, warned: ‘Many silent viruses could create a biological nightmare in humans. Mutant animal viruses are a real threat, as we have seen with HIV.'”

Is it time for a street fight?

Posted on by Don

What a radical idea. Dave proposes that leaders in Christianity actually direct their followers to take effective social action to stop the Godless perverted agenda that has taken over our society.

Don’t hold your breath Dave. “Christianity” made them leaders in the first place because these leaders reflect their own values – the values of Laodicean materialistic cultural pseudo-Christianity.

In other words, I am saying the Christianity that you think exists in Western Christianity is now mostly a cultural illusion.

Dave Daubenmire — Is It Time for a Street fight?: “But here is the Truth. We lack the courage and the desire to do it.… continue reading

How to know what is emerging in your Church

Posted on by Don

This is one of the best articles I have read on new evangelical post modern thinking that is growing like wildfire. I hope everyone will take the time to read this entire article so that they will understand it and so they will be equipped to deal with the heresy.

How to Know When the Emerging Church Shows Signs of Emerging in Your Church: “One of the main indicators that something has changed can be seen in the way the future is perceived. Rather than urgently proclaiming the gospel according to the Scriptures and believing the time to do so is short, the emphasis has now shifted.

Grave statistics that explain how serious the problem is among Christian adults

Posted on by Don

This survey obviously points out the real problem in our nation, unbelief or a departure from the faith, AKA apostasy.

An Urgent Report! Code Blue: Churched Students and Families in Final Throes of Worldview Crisis – CWN: “Researchers of the problem continue to come up with increasingly grave statistics that explain how serious the condition is. Among Christian adults:

• 64% believe moral truth depends on the situation;
• 60% believe male/female co-habitation outside of marriage is acceptable;
• 55% believe a good person can earn his or her salvation;
• 44% believe Jesus Christ committed sins while on earth.[1]… continue reading

The ancient secret

Posted on by Don

The secret of “The Secret” is that is contains the lie of the power of positive confession and the lies of old age paganism but it is wrapped in a nice New Age cover.

Berit Kjos — A New Mask for an Ancient Secret: “Yes, ‘The Secret’ by Rhonda Byrne teems with tempting promises and positive affirmations. But it omits all facts that could sound negative, since ‘summoning what you want’ demands an intentional focus on what’s positive. ‘The law of attraction doesn’t compute ‘don’t’ or ‘not’ or ‘no,’ or any other words of negation.'[1]

So while the next quote mentions the historical roots of this Secret, it doesn’t tell us that those roots include the ancient Egyptian mystery religions, the occult Kabbalah, Gnosticism, Rosicrucianism, and Hermetic magic.

Imam Mahdi to reappear in Mecca?

Posted on by Don

I am betting that it will never happen except in the delusion of certain people’s minds.

Iran: Mahdi will defeat archenemy in Jerusalem – News from Israel, Ynetnews: “A triumphal religious prophecy has appeared on an Iranian official state media website, heralding the return of the Shiite messiah.

According to the website, ‘Imam Mahdi (may God hasten his reappearance) will appear all of a sudden on the world scene with a voice from the skies announcing his reappearance at the holy Ka’ba in Mecca.’

The rebuilding of Babylon is not far fetched

Posted on by Don

There was an eye opener on 20/20 last night. If anyone wonders how Babylon can be rebuilt in a short period of time check out what is happening in Dubai today. The city is rapidly becoming the international playground of the rich people of the world. The King of this emirate is now building the most modern city in the world using 500,000 temporary guest workers (nearly slaves). He is in the process of erecting a building that will be twice as tall as the tallest building in the world. He is even making offshore islands in the shape of each nation of the world.… continue reading

Having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof – God does nothing supernatural

Posted on by Don

Paul tells Timothy in his second letter what it will be like in the last days:

2 Tim 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times
shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous,
boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent,
fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady,
highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a
form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6
For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly
women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and
never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
