A warning for Christian Oprah fans- do you know what you are watching???

I have to say I find it extremely worrying when I hear of confessing Christians talking about Oprah. Oprah has of late been using her celebrity status to promote her new-age, mysticism/gnosticism which is leading many astray. Couple this with the lack of discernment and biblical knowledge amongst many Christians and there lies the possibility [...]

K.P.Yohannan- The Social Gospel ain’t no gospel at all…….

The so-called humanist gospel—which isn’t really the “good news” at all—is called by many names. Some argue for it in familiar biblical and theological terms; some call it the “social gospel” or the “holistic gospel,” but the label is not important. You can tell the humanist gospel because it refuses to admit that the [...]

J.C.Ryle- Seems like the Sheep are no different today than they were back then…

 

“Thousands [of professing Christians] will crowd to hear a new voice and a new doctrine, without considering for a moment whether what they hear is true. There is an incessant craving after any teaching which is sensational, and exciting, and rousing to the feelings. There is an unhealthy appetite for a sort of spasmodic and [...]

Lions Den 21st Century style………

I often wonder why many Christians, including myself, fail to acknowledge that persecution is part of the package that comes with being a follower of Christ. Why do we look to be welcomed with open-arms by the world when in reality Scripture depicts quite a different story. One needs only to look at those in [...]

John Piper- Examine your life…are you truly born again?

 
The attitude of “Judge Not Lest you be Judged” is so prevalent amongst many of today’s confessing Christians that any call for discernment or self-examination by someone other than themselves is deemed to be judgemental and unloving. However, that is not the Biblical perpective. Yes, we should not judge with hatred in our hearts, but [...]

Ancient Words- Sola Scriptura

I was recently thinking to myself about the many people who try to undermine the sufficiency and inerrant aspects of Scripture. Many may have clever arguments, cunningly twisting Scripture, but ultimately these people have little faith in Christ. How little is one’s faith if he is willing to believe that God [...]

Charles Spurgeon on the Mass

And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. (Hebrews 10:10)
 
 ”What, then, will we say of those who come forward and pretend that they perpetually present the body of Christ in the unbloody sacrifice of the mass? We say that no profane jest from [...]

A.W.Pink- The Attributes of God

  “The God of Scripture can only be known by those to whom he makes himself known. Nor is God known by the intellect. “God is Spirit” (John 4:24), and therefore can only be known spiritually. But fallen man is not spiritual; he is carnal. He is dead to all that is spiritual. He is [...]

Joseph Smith taught, “I have always declared God to be a distinct personage, Jesus Christ a separate and distinct personage from God the Father, and that the Holy Ghost was a distinct personage and a Spirit: and these three constitute three distinct personages and three Gods” (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, 370; [...]

The truth of the Westminster Confession of Faith

“We are living in an age which threatens to sacrifice the precious doctrines of the Word of God to ecumenism. It is no wonder that such a document as the Westminster Confession, with its uncompromising testimony of truth, should now be looked upon as an embarassment and hindrance to progress. In the interests of ecumenism, [...]

Becoming God

The following article I sourced from defendingcontending.com and it’s a truly great one at that! How evident it should be to any professing Christian that if any religion, or “Christian” denomination is man-centred and seeks to appeal to all that man wants then it is not of God. Christ bids us come and die (not [...]

The Benefits of Affliction- John Newton

“Afflictions quicken us to prayer. It is a pity it should be so; experience testifies that a long course of ease and prosperity’ without painful changes, has an unhappy tendency to make us cold and formal in our secret worship; but troubles rouse our spirits, and constrain us to call upon the Lord in good [...]

Why we’re Not Emergent…..

” I keep wondering, am I missing something here? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes; we do see through a glass dimly; we do not fully understand God; we don’t know God as God knows himself; our words can’t capture the essence of God. God is greater than we can conceive- but what about the [...]

The Problem with Doctrinal Error and why it DOES matter!

We must never let doctrinal error go unabated because it dishonors God and deceives the unsuspecting. It defiles the conscience, corrupts the heart, and destroys the soul. According to Scripture, that which flows from the lips of false teachers includes: “strange doctrines,” “commandments of men,” “doctrines of devils,” “damnable heresies,” “traditions of men,” “lies,” “falsehood,” [...]

A.W.Pink

That which Christ requires from His disciples is that they should magnify and glorify Him in this world, and that, by living holily to Him and suffering patiently for Him. Nothing is so honoring to Christ as that those who bear His name should, by their holy obedience, make manifest the power of His love [...]
