Blind In One Eye

Right up front I want to say that I have a great amount of respect for all those who are fighting to expose this end time religious delusion that is sweeping across the face of the planet.   But, the fact is that if we fail to see how we, ourselves, have also been defrauded […]

Man-pleasing? Or GOD-pleasing?

Man-pleasing? Or GOD-pleasing? “For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ.” Gal.1:10 The following quote was accurately written by a “pastor” of a local “church” in this city, […]

Where Do We Find Truth In The World?

We are surrounded by deception, misrepresentations, trickery, stagecraft, illusions, sleights of hand, delusions, perceptions, opinions, marketing, advertising, and much wishful thinking, but not truth. It matters not where you go in the world, truth is hard to find. Jer 17:9 “The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?” Eccl […]

Tony Jones Dis-likes Labels

Tony Jones doesn’t like labels. He says he would rather think of his Christianity as “emergence” and not “Emergent.” There is only one Christianity and it ain’t emergence or Emergent, neither is it Pentecostal, Baptist, Lutheran, or any other sect. Following Christ is to be a Christian, and for the most part they all have […]

Haiti: A Response

Why shouldn’t the focus be on the sins of the Nation of Haiti? I am no fan of Pat Robertson and consider him a false prophet, but at least he ventured to place the emphasis where it belongs, on sin and judgment. Does this mean that Pat or myself hate these people and glory in […]

The Manhattan Declaration

I’m curious, how many declarations, proclamations, manifestos, creeds, and statements of faith does it take to turn a ruthlessly vain and evil race of people into moral, dignified, and respectable human beings. The answer to that question is, there is not enough paper to print all the decrees necessary to save us? Let’s look for […]

Evangelical Movement at ‘Head-Snapping’ Moment, Says Scholar

I am certainly not an advocate for the new evangelical/emerging church movement, but the following article causes me to ask some serious questions that no one seems to be addressing. The question is WHY? Why is the Church crumbling and in the position that it’s in today? Why are the young embracing a new form […]

God’s Awakening Call

http://www.housechurch.com/Foundations-Series/Hammer/God’s-Awakening-Call The Call to Be the Body of Christ, Rather Than To “Attend” Something It has become more and more obvious to God’s Chosen, worldwide, that the typical expression of what is known as “church” has been influenced by the enemy, and through worldly culture. Our understanding and expression of “church,” in generation after generation, […]
