Remember boys and girls, don't blindly trust all the "Christian" books being sold at "Christian" bookstores! (And shame on you, Thomas Nelson Publishing!)

Did God Promise Health and Wealth?

This is a GREAT sermon-especially about the Biblical demand for discernment and how to recognize false teachers in the church!! You can listen to it or read it:

I just found this article from a great new blogger (who makes my writing look mild by comparison!)...

"Casting a vision or commandeering control?" Shocking radio interview!

/

This is a great interview with Chris Rosebrough about "vision-casting" in the church. PLEASE listen!! It is fascinating, revealing and quite shocking:

Casting a vision or commandeering control?

Acts 20:29-31 says: "Savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock. Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw disciples after them. So be on your guard!"

The False Teaching of Rick Joyner

/
Another important article-here's an excerpt: "We are witnessing in this man's writings some of the most blatant "false teachings" ever to invade the church to my knowledge.  He is preparing the way for any person who clings to the doctrines of the Bible to be identified as the real enemy." 
In other words, we who still believe that the Bible is God's (only) Word are the bad guys in Joyner's very twisted and bizarre "visions."  Please please please don't follow these corrupt ideas-just follow God's Word! -Steve Kozar
Here's a link to the article:

 What part of this is hard to understand??...
 "But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed! As we have said before, so I say again now, if any man is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be accursed!" Galatians 1: 8-9 NASB

 Here's a very detailed outline of ALL the error in "The Final Quest" (the book that made Joyner a millionaire):

 In case you think I'm being too harsh, I dare anyone to watch all 7 minutes of the voodoo-I mean, church service at Joyner's "church:"

"Follow the Elite Heretic Rick Joyner-(or God Might Kill You)"

You can't make this stuff up... If you've been deceived by the writings of Rick Joyner, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read this article (and then read it again), and then start reading your Bible! Another GREAT article from Bob Dewaay:

A New 95 Theses: Challenging the Excesses of American Evangelicalism

This comes from one of my very favorite teachers/pastors, Chris Rosebrough:

Just a sample:
11. In the name of relevance, our Lord Jesus Christ is demoted to a cheesy third rate life-coach whose “gospel” motivates people to focus even more on themselves by believing that Jesus exists to assist them in achieving the objectives of their narcissistic delusions of grandeur.

Holding to two (or more) opposing beliefs at the same time-it has become "the American way"...

"Greater works?" Another great article!

/
This is what it looks like when a Bible passage is carefully explained in context, without all the confusing fluff and emotionalism. No, we are not supposed to be doing, literally, greater things than Jesus did-and that's good, because we haven't been anyway. You can stop feeling guilty because you haven't raised people from the dead recently. (However, if you've already been doing greater signs and wonders than Jesus you can skip this article...)
