by glennchristopherson Some time ago Calvinist icon, John Piper, ignited an internet firestorm when he invited Rick Warren to be a keynote speaker at his “Desiring God’ conference. Well, the conference is over now and the Reverend Rick, true to form, presented a man-centred pelagian message of Catholic lite heresy. Some have done a good […]
from Embassy of Prayer by glennchristopherson The Apostle John finishes his first letter with these words (1 John 5:21) “Little children, keep yourselves from idols” At first glance this instruction seems to be out of place, but on further reflection it becomes clear, this is actually a summary of all that had been written before.

To redefine something we must first know the correct definition. That would be a reasonable assumption, wouldn’t you think?

Quite honestly, the organized church is beginning to stink with its attempt to cover-up any trace of […]

HE is the Church and our “model”!! That stuff is clearly not Him! : ) “As many […]
Many "churches" love to quote Tozer, to attach to themselves, his radical message and nature. Although Tozer preached hard against the Church wedded to the world he remained a part of the organized church to his dying days. This fact has did much to dilute his forcefulness and diminish his authority for the preservation of […]
Does any of this sound familiar?
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 […]
