by Chris ColeWe live in a time where the culture has returned to a pre-Christian stage, in which every man does what is right in his own eyes (Judges 21:25). Things which were considered too shameful for polite company within the lifetimes of man of us living today...
In a spectacle reminiscent of the prophet Elijah who mocked the prophets of Baal, Greg Locke’s recent ordination as an "apostle" at Global Vision Bible Church reeks of theological absurdity. This grandiose ceremony, officiated by Southern Baptist pastor Malachi...

Last week, I reported that well-known prosperity gospel charlatan, Benny Hinn, had once again "repented" of his false gospel—a publicity stunt he's performed time and time again. And I also pointed out that his latest charade was just another example of a dog...
Over the years, as I've covered Christian news and apologetics, I've seen a lot. I've seen so much that hardly anything surprises me. What was once considered unholy alliances have become the norm as mainstream seemingly "normal" Christian leaders don't think twice...
