Download or read book Strange Fire written by John MacArthur and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Strange Fire, bestselling author and pastor John MacArthur chronicles the unsavory history behind the modern Charismatic movement. What would God say about those who blatantly misrepresent His Holy Spirit; who exchange true worship for chaotic fits of mindless ecstasy; who replace the biblical gospel with vain illusions of health and wealth; who claim to prophesy in His name yet speak errors; and who sell false hope to desperate people for millions of dollars? The charismatic movement has always been a breeding-ground for scandal, greed, bad doctrine, and all kinds of spiritual chicanery. As a movement, it is clearly headed the wrong direction. And it is growing at an unprecedented rate. From the Word of Faith to the New Apostolic Reformation, the Charismatic movement is being consumed by the empty promises of the prosperity gospel. Too many charismatic celebrities promote a “Christianity” without Christ, a Holy Spirit without holiness. And their teaching is having a disastrous influence on a grand scale, as large television networks broadcast their heresies to every part of the world. In Strange Fire, MacArthur lays out a chilling case against the modern Charismatic movement that includes: Rejecting its false prophets. Speaking out against their errors. Showing true reverence to the Holy Spirit. Clinging to the Bible as the inerrant, authoritative Word of God and the one true standard by which all truth claims must be tested.

Download or read book Counterfeit Gospels written by Trevin Wax and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the biggest danger to the church of Jesus Christ is not blatant heresy, the moral failures of church leaders, persecution, the rise of Islam or the loss of our rights? What if the biggest threat is counterfeit gospels within the church, ways of thinking and speaking about the good news that lead to a gradual drift from the truth of Scripture? The gospel is like a three-legged stool. There’s the Gospel Story – the grand narrative of Scripture (Creation, Fall, Redemption, Restoration). Within that overarching framework, we make the Gospel Announcement about Jesus Christ (His perfect life, substitutionary death, resurrection, exaltation). The gospel announcement then births the Gospel Community: God’s church – the embodiment of the gospel, the manifestation of God’s kingdom. A counterfeit gospel is like a colony of termites, eating away at one of the legs of this stool until the whole thing topples over. This book exposes six common counterfeits (Therapeutic, Judgmentless, Moralist, Quietist, Activist, and Churchless) that would get us off track. The goal of Counterfeit Gospels is to so deepen our love for the unchanging gospel of Jesus Christ that we would easily see through the many counterfeits that leave us impoverished. So come, love the gospel, recognize and overcome the counterfeits, and be empowered for ministry!

Download or read book Counterfeit Kingdom written by Holly Pivec and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a new reformation happening in the church? It depends on who you ask. The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a popular and fast-growing new movement of Christians who emphasize signs and wonders, and teach that God is giving new revelation through new apostles and prophets. But is this biblical Christianity? In Counterfeit Kingdom, apologists and NAR experts Holly Pivec and Douglas Geivett show how the NAR’s key tenets distort the gospel, twist the Scriptures, are influenced by New Age practices, and lead faithful Christians to shipwreck their faith. They also offer practical suggestions for readers who are already influenced by the NAR, curious about it, or concerned about loved ones who have been swept up in the movement. What used to be on the fringes of the church is now mainstream, and many are being influenced by it unaware. This book is a wake-up call.

Download or read book Satan s Counterfeit Prophecy written by Heidi Heiks and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is more about what the fifth and sixth trumpets of Revelation are not, rather than what they are. After all, it is premature to speak of what they are, when the generally-accepted view is built upon a platform of error. It is this fog of error that must first be lifted before we, as a church, can move forward, united in our message to the world as we rightly present the warning messages of the trumpets of Revelation to a dying world. This study comes at a critical time, as the sixth trumpet of Revelation has its application in force in this present period of earth's history, and will continue so until the close of probation, as we will prove. The seventh trumpet of Revelation, as will be shown, is when Jesus receives His kingdom. The administration of the seven last plagues will follow, climaxing with the second coming of Christ in the clouds of heaven.

Download or read book Book 4 Psychology PB written by Kurt Jurgensmeier and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does Scripture say about the human heart? The human "heart" is where we meet God, believe Him, and obey Him. Which is why the psychological use of "heart" is used over 1000 times in Scripture, not including the hundreds of synonymous references to the human mind, spirit, soul, and conscience. Contrary to many, there is a lot of psychology in the Bible. This book is first a biblical study on the different aspects of the human "heart" including our reason, will, and emotions. Included is an important chapter on how we change our "heart" and thus our life. Secondly, we discuss the dangers of how the Charismatic movement has elevated emotion over reason in both worship and prayer. Finally, we correct the common mistake in theology of not distinguishing between the abilities of the devil-darkened reason of the unregenerated and the Spirit-liberated reason of the regenerated. In the process, we describe the psychological aspects of conversion.
