Exposing False Teachings.

You walk into a Christian Book store and you feel that what is being offered is family safe and is doctrine safe. If you pull back the curtain of popularity of some authors, their doctrine they falls into false teaching. Authors such as Rob Bell, Rick Warren, Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyers, and the list can go on. There fundamental basis of their writings is the warm fuzzy feel good religion. The writings are written so as not to offend , to give a big group hug.

There is a new movement in the Christianity based on upon Post-Modernism. Post -Modernism roots trace back to the 50's. Recently the Emergent Church Movement, is about shifting cultural changes that the church should emerge in response.  The tenets of Post-Modernism did not emerge till the 90's with this movement. The most accurate description of Post-Modernism is replacing cold hard facts in favor of the all feel good warm fuzzies subjectivity. The Emergent /Emerging Church movement follows that thinking.

The Emergent movement fall in line with basic Post-Modernism thinking. It is about the experience replacing reason, subjectivity over objectivity, spiritually,  religious images over words, outward over inward feelings, and the truth. It rejects the way of standard methodology for doing anything. Embracing Post-Modernism  thinking leads to a very liberal and loose translation of the Bible. Thus stripping away the truth and harsh realities of Christian faith. The doctrine becomes very liberal along with the theology.

Experiences are more valued  than sound reason, truth than becomes relative. Once the door to relativism is open  problems flood in that destroy the standard that the the bible is absolute truth is about the saving faith of of Jesus Christ.This thinking  of experience renders Jesus Christ  meaningless.  The only way to heaven is through our saviour Jesus Christ.  Any teaching that dilutes that or perverts it is false.

An that emerges from this movement is their anti-biblical focus on ecuresim.The unity of believers from various religions and ethnic  backgrounds and diverisity. Ecumenailism brings comprise and causing the scripture to become diluted so that is not offensive. This is approach  is in direct opposition  to passages such as Revelations 2:14 The letter to the Church of Pergamum. To which the church is warned against tolerating those who teach false doctrine.  Matthew 7: 15-20 Heeds a warning that applies to today. Beware of false prophets who come in sheep's clothing but inwardly they are ravaging wolves..............

We are in a perilous times with war, rumors of war, earthquakes, floods, and famines. Our comfort is knowing that Jesus is coming for us. Many will go about spreading false doctrine to those seeking a false hope. It our call to bring the light of truth to the darkness, to give the hopeless true hope that comes from knowing Jesus Christ.

 I will blow the horn of truth, bring light to the darkness.
