Ex-Catholic Exposes the TWISTED Teachings of the Catholic Church | Mike Gendron

4 Jan 2023 Michael A

Mike Gendron used around 40 slides to discuss the significant points of difference between the Protestant biblical gospel and the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) un-biblical gospel. His slides contained information which he added to as he discussed the opening graph of a timeline of the Christian church. He pointed out each departure of the RCC from God’s word. [It was a thorough presentation for being so short, 64 minutes. If you’re not clear on the specifics of how the RCC gospel differs from that of the Protestant evangelical church, then you will likely learn a lot by carefully attending to his points. He does get into the departure of evangelicalism from the Bible also, especially regarding the ecumenical movement spearheaded by the Pope, the Manhattan Declaration, regarding that movement, is attached in pdf form.]

Eternal Security and Gospel Assurance — Mike Gendron [former Roman Catholic]

3 Jan 2023 Michael A

Did you know over half of professing Christianity denies or rejects the Gospel’s divine promise of eternal life? Our Lord Jesus made His gracious and unbreakable promise very clear: “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life” (John 5:24). [Then Mike talked about this via the following subheadings: Power of Almighty God; Promises of Our Great God and Savior; Perpetual Intercession of Jesus; Proof of Christ’s Unconditional Love; Protection of the Good Shepherd; Permanence of Divine Gifts; Plain Meaning of the Word “Eternal.” In conclusion, he asked 7 rhetorical questions.]

The Apostates’ Doom – A. W. Pink / Studies in the Scriptures / Christian Audio Books

30 Dec 2022 Michael A

A W Pink considers Hebrews 10:26-31 in discussing the apostate’s doom. He discusses how preachers had watered down that [and all] scripture in his day [he died in 1952]. They promised believers that if they had accepted Christ [signed a card; uttered the sinner’s prayer…] that their eternal future was secure…. He discussed a three erroneous takes on this passage by Arminians, over-zealous Calvinists; he called out the dispensationalists for “trifling with God’s word.” He aimed to present a biblical take on the passage and seemed to do so. It is an important message for all Christians in this day of far greater heresy and apostasy than in the 1950s. I recommend reading the preceding post on the impact of Christian Liberalism on the church before this post. Video is 43 minutes with a long list of highlights beforehand

The Decline of Protestant Christianity in the early 20th century has impacted you today

29 Dec 2022 Michael A

This post is a crash-course in the decline of the Christian church since the late 19th century. The purpose herein is to help you assess the quality of your own faith as you come understand the unbiblical impact of Christian Liberalism. The first two videos surround a figure of the Presbyterian church in the early 20th century, J Gresham Machen. [Although Machen was a Presbyterian, his fight against the unbiblical movement of Christian liberalism is relevant to the whole of Christianity.] Two posts from this blog are linked because they provide necessary information about unbiblical evangelism and C H Spurgeon’s fight against liberalism, narrated by John MacArthur.

Repent or Perish! – A. W. Pink

27 Dec 2022 Michael A

The following 5-minute devotional says much about repentance and the hindrances to it. The chief obstacle is self, which he addresses in a succinct but thorough manner. [One big problem of the Christian walk is learning to deny self. This culture has made that a huge problem because we are taught from childhood, by TV ads and by observing what the people around us value, that self-gratification is the height of personal freedom.] Sermon highlights precede the 5-minute video

R C Sproul’s Christian Worldview Dvd summarized from my notes

25 Dec 2022 Michael A

R C Sproul’s Christian Worldview DVD is very briefly covered in this post. From my notes, I provided ‘nutshell’ definitions for the following philosophical views that are inherent in our culture: secularism; existentialism; humanism; pragmatism; positivism; pluralism; relativism and hedonism. In the last post, I explained a point by referring to pragmatism and thought that a better definition of that term and these other basic definitions could be useful to other Christians in knowing the culture in which they are witnessing Christ. Hopefully, this post will whet the appetite of Christians to hear Sproul on this topic.

America As The New Athens – Pastor Patrick Hines

24 Dec 2022 Michael A

The sermon of this post uses the apostle Paul’s speech to the Athenians from Acts 17, to explain our current culture and how we need to present the gospel message today. Pastor Hines explains that our culture is post-Christian and most do not know the basic historical foundational points of Christianity and believe, for example, that our worldview is only one option among many. [Many are becoming aware of what is happening in schools, how children are being indoctrinated into Pagan worldviews; but this type of indoctrination has been happening for 50 years or more in our culture, so many adults are unfamiliar with biblical truth that is essential to salvation and a correct understanding of themselves, God and purpose in living…. This sermon provides information that is as essential to Christians as R C Sproul’s dvd on the Christian Worldview.]

Visions and voices from God – WWUTT

23 Dec 2022 Michael A

There are two 2-minute videos below by WWUTT; the first is about Beth Moore and the second about her daughter. The pastor’s purpose is to warn Christians about their unbiblical teachings.

Has God given you the right to own a gun? WWUTT

22 Dec 2022 Michael A

The following 1-minute, 30-second video explains some basic things about society: that people are permitted to own property and to protect that property. This administration is attempting to take away these basic biblical rights that God established long ago. Following the video, are links to three posts in this blog that explain the democrat left’s true rationale for wanting to take your guns. Post one is about Parkland school shootings; 2, about strategies of every communist leader before occupying a country; and 3 about the communist strategies of Saul Alinsky that make up the handbook of the democrat left.
