Andy Wood has become a popular name in recent months in Evangelical circles as he was recently selected to replace Rick Warren as the lead pastor of one of the largest Southern Baptist churches in the nation, Saddleback Church. After Warren announced his retirement,...
The world we live in today is a shadow of its biblical foundations, marred by the consequences of Adam's fall and a complete disregard for its Creator. This rejection of God has left us with a flawed and obscured understanding of our purpose and place in the world,...
The "carnal Christian" heresy, also referred to as antinomianism, has been a persistent and recurring false teaching throughout the history of the Christian Church. This heresy asserts that a person can have faith in Jesus Christ and still engage in sinful behavior...
Jesus told Christians to be set apart from the world. Yet, somehow in modern times, what passes as "Christianity" is virtually indistinguishable from the paganized culture and is often designed that way on purpose.As we've written about numerous times over the years,...
I don't think you have to be a complete iconoclast to know when depicting God crosses the line. God's commandments are clear—"you shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above" and "You shall not bow down to them."What...
I recently had an exchange with Jared Moore, a pastor and a graduate of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (SBTS), who has been exposing much of the bad theology within the Southern Baptist Convention over sexuality. Moore recently started a firestorm on Twitter...
Andy Stanley, a pastor widely discredited by orthodox, Bible-believing Christians as a false teacher, has ignited a raging controversy with his latest remarks on homosexuality and faith. Stanley's "seeker-sensitive" approach prioritizes attracting non-believers to...

Manichaeism was an aberrant religious sect founded by the Persian prophet, Mani, during the 3rd century AD that made its way into Christian circles. This heresy was an amalgamation of various religious traditions such as Zoroastrianism, Buddhism, and Gnosticism, and...
If you need any more reason to believe that Andy Stanley has completely stepped into the realm of "gay-affirming," look no further than what we're about to present to you. But first, a little backstory. Over the last few weeks, Stanley has been in the headlines over...
Rev. Terry K. Anderson of Lilly Grove Missionary Baptist Church, one of the most affluent and largest megachurches in Houston, recently preached a sermon suggesting that black people leave their workplaces if they work for white people because all white people have a...
I really feel like I need to disclaim this post with the fact that I really do not support or endorse Mark Driscoll in any way. That being said, I happened across a post of his on Twitter recently that put such an absurd debate for professing Christians quite...
The web of deceit is woven tighter by those who stake their entire existence on promoting the false notion of White Supremacy. From Jussie Smollet to Kyle Howard, individuals resort to fabricating tales of supposed racist encounters to secure their futures. But why?...
If you're wondering why Andy Stanley's church has an open lesbian on staff as a counselor to other homosexuals, we're finding out that Stanley's approval of sexual immorality dates back much longer than we originally thought. Last week, Andy Stanley, a pastor who is...
In recent years, there have been growing concerns about the trend toward a police state in America, where basic human rights and freedoms are being increasingly violated by those in positions of authority. As more and more people are targeted for their beliefs and...
The Church of England, also known as the Anglican Church, is a historic institution that has its roots in the 16th century when King Henry VIII sought to divorce his wife Catherine of Aragon but was denied annulment by the Pope. As a result, Henry broke away from the...
As parents, it is our responsibility to ensure that our children are protected, guided, and nurtured in the ways of the Lord. We are commanded by the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 6:4 to "bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." This is a weighty...
What you're about to hear really shouldn't sound all that crazy, particularly coming from a man who says Jesus barged in on him while he was laying naked in the bathtub and told him what his destiny was going to be. I mean, if you're that close to God, then it follows...
These people are so predictable that it isn't even funny. Last week, following the death of Tyre Nichols, a black man who was beaten by five black cops and ultimately died in the hospital from the trauma several days later, I predicted that the usual race-baiters...
Earlier today, we reported that a Southern Baptist megachurch in Jacksonville, FL was requiring its members to sign a statement affirming a biblical sexual ethic in spite of the culture's continuing devolution into sexual anarchy. Last night, First Baptist Church...
It's not always that we get to report a positive movement within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). As of late, we've been reporting a lot on one Florida SBC megachurch that seems to continue to slide closer and closer to fully embracing homosexuality. That church...
Last week, Andy Stanley, a pastor who is widely considered by many orthodox, Bible-believing Christians to be a false teacher, has been at the center of a heated controversy over his statements regarding the faith of homosexuals. Stanley's approach, known as...

It's beyond fascinating to watch the progressive left act like they have some kind of moral high ground by pretending to abstain from politics all the while, they are demonstrably shilling for the liberal agenda. But to see those who claim Christ spend their time...
I will be dealing here with some views among Mormons which have changed over time. As I will mention, past doctrines on race have since been repudiated. In no way can anything here be said to represent the personal views of any current Mormon. In the...
J.D. Greear has been a completely different kind of president than any other Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) president in history. Greear's political and theological progressive bent can be compared to that of the current Pope of the Roman Catholic Church who has...

In this episode, I rant about Joe Carter’s article at the (anti) Gospel Coalition and entertain the question, does Joe Carter really care about your sanctification where politics is concerned or does he care about something else far more troubling?
Michael Gerson is a contributor to the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) led by Democrat, Russell Moore, and Gerson is highly promoted on the SBC-funded ERLC website, has appeared in several podcasts with Moore, and is also heavily...

David Hughes, pastor of Church of the Glades in Coral Springs, Florida was chosen by FBC Orlando lead pastor, David Uth to speak at the upcoming Southern Baptist Convention's Pastors' Conference in June 2020. Hughes literally runs his church like a circus. (See image...
Eric Johnson of Bethel Church preached a sermon this past weekend on Kobe Bryant declaring that they would not actually be diving into the Scriptures because, well, that isn't helpful. Johnson said he's going to talk about something that's going to actually be helpful...
At last year's Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) conference, many were upset at the passing of Resolution 9 which solidified the denomination's support for a neo-Marxist worldview including Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality. The SBC has long departed the path...
Christianity today wants churches to reduce the stigma of divorce. Marriages that end in divorce are already nearly equally as common as marriages that do not end in divorce. According to statistics, up to 45 percent of first marriages end in divorce and second and...
Today marks Super Bowl LIV, the 54th annual NFL championship game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs. How do I know that? Well, to be honest, I googled it. What I do know, however, is that the culture surrounding the professional sport has seen...
The Gospel Coalition is on a mission to move Evangelicals in a leftward direction both politically and theologically. While most of the contributors to the organization overlap with the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission -- another...
Nothing gives ammunition to the social justice progressive wing of Evangelicalism -- who continually tirades against conservatives for throwing support behind Trump -- more than the actions of right-wing Evangelical political hacks like Robert Jeffress. In fact, the...
Thomas Kidd is a Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) research fellow who is also a Baylor University professor and highly sought after speaker and author for The Gospel Coalition. Just last week, during the annual March for Life event in...
I like our president. He's a good politician and stands up to the establishment like none we've seen in a long time. While I'm not on board with all of his policies, most of them are certainly better than any of the Democratic alternatives. With that disclaimer, I...
Solidifying Reformation Charlotte's official position that the Democratic Party is the party of Satan himself, Gay presidential candidate, Pete Buttigieg answers the question of a Democrat claiming to be pro-life and affirms the official Democrat position that...
NBA star Kobe Bryant, along with his thirteen-year-old daughter, died yesterday in a horrific helicopter accident. That the life of a man who had so much temporal wealth and fame could be suddenly snatched away in an instant is shocking and speaks to the fragility of...

Vice President Mike Pence has been heralded as one of the most conservative Christian leaders this nation has ever seen -- his wife even being attacked constantly by the left because she teaches at a Christian school. Today, Pence visited the Vatican to visit the pope...

Tim Keller may not seem like the stereotypical charismatic, tongue-flapping, prosperity gospel-preaching false prophet that many false teachers we’ve covered so far in our False Teacher of the Day series, yet, his influence on the Evangelical Church cannot be...
The early beginnings of liberation theology can be traced to Latin America in the 1960s. The thrust of this movement began as a result of young Catholic and Protestant theologians reflecting on the people’s life of faith within the context of the people’s resistance...
False prophets, false apostles, false teachers, wolves in sheep's clothing—that's what dominates the professing Christian atmosphere, sadly. These false apostles typically surround themselves with false prophecies of Donald Trump. To this day, not a single "prophecy"...

If you need any other reason to believe that Critical Race Theory is anti-Christian, look no further than the anti-Bible rhetoric within the movement. Critical Race Theory--a racist ideology that masquerades as "anti-racism" but actually does nothing other than...
A popular buzzword in the culture today that has been heralded as a virtuous goal worth pursuing is "multiculturalism." On its face, it sounds noble--it sounds like it promotes respect, tolerance, peace, and love throughout a nation filled with people from diverse...
