Tony Evans, a prominent Evangelical pastor with close ties to the Southern Baptist Convention, has been on a roll lately with aberrant theology and false teachings. Evans, who has now partnered with former Southern Baptist Convention president, Ed Litton, to push a...
It’s bad enough that Judaism is a false religion, a religion that denies Christ. John says in 1 John 2:22 that this is the antichrist. But what about an orthodox Jewish Rabbi who tells Christians that they shouldn’t just be worshiping one Jew—Jesus. But that they...
Okay, so this one isn't actually in the Bible. But since a disturbing number of professing believers think it is, we'll cover it anyway. The well-worn mantra, "Let go and let God"—a phrase often parroted in church Sunday School classes, book clubs, and social media...
Today, as we observe Columbus Day, we find an excellent moment to ponder on God's divine providence. Often overlooked in the midst of barbecues and discounted sales, the monumental voyage of Christopher Columbus in 1492 was no accident. From a biblical perspective,...
In Mark 9:42, Jesus Christ Himself delivers a sobering and forceful warning that should echo in the ears of anyone daring to distort the truths of Scripture: "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great...
In the land of make-believe—otherwise known as Columbus, Ohio—a man by the name of Tim Ahrens plays dress-up as a pastor. The setting? The First Congregational Church, a stage in the theatrical United Church of Christ, a denomination better known for its creative...
Welcome to a discussion that dives deep behind the fog machines, laser light spectacles, and thunderous sound systems, addressing not just one, but multiple elephants in the room. First, the theological disarray among a plethora of megachurch worship pastors—those...
Welcome to Part II of our series, "Untwisting the Bible," where we yank twisted Scriptures back into their rightful context. In today's spiritual battlefield of "gotcha" theology, few verses are weaponized as much as Matthew 7:1 and 7:5: "Judge not, that you be not...
Former SBC president, JD Greear, has been under fire on social media in recent days after a video surfaced of him advocating for his church's diversity/equity/inclusion (DEI) program. But what exactly is the result of that program? Apparently, this.You may remember...
We've witnessed in recent years a surge of hyper-emotional events masquerading as expressions of genuine Christian faith. These gatherings, such as the Passion Conference, Hillsong concerts, and other events connected to the charismatic, word of faith, and prosperity...
