Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historic heresies didn’t die or fade away. Each generation boasts its own. Even while these counterfeit teachings remain outside the accepted bounds of Christianity, modern-day versions plague churches.So how does a church leader or pastor understand and deal with these age-old controversies when they pop up in the congregation? In this book, Roger Olson describes the curses but also gifts that heresies bring the Church. While heresies can occasionally correct a version of orthodoxy, they are not simple confusions or misunderstandings about impenetrable mysteries of divine revelation. Instead they undermine the faith and are dangerous distortions. The author describes major heresies and how the church dealt with them, the players, and what pastors can do to address these faith issues in order to educate congregations about Jesus, God, and salvation. Also included are questions for individual or group study. Also available - a Leader guide with DVD in which Adam Hamilton hosts on-screen conversations with Roger Olson (9781501806360)

Download or read book The Mark of a Christian written by Ken Hathcoat and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2022-07-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For several decades, it has become increasingly difficult to determine genuine Christian teaching, and therefore, genuine Christianity. It is even more difficult now. Pastors and teachers use "Christian" sounding messages and phrases that confuse non-Christians and Christians alike. Is it possible for a person to determine who is and who isn't a true believer in Jesus Christ? If a person can, how do they go about doing that? In The Mark of a Christian, Ken Hathcoat answers these questions by examining seven key parameters in the Book of First John. The Mark of a Christian is not simply a checklist to determine true Christianity. It is also a gut-check for genuine believers to help them "...walk in the same way in which [Jesus] walked." (1 John 2:6)

Download or read book The Gospel of Deception written by Michele Neal and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-first century Church seems to be abandoning its holy and anointed role of keeping watch over the souls of those who are followers of Christ. Succumbing to the lure of deceptive teachings, many church leaders are feeding their flock with Satan's counterfeits to authentic Christianity. With a power-packed, Biblical message that will shake the Church to its core, The Gospel of Deception exposes these counterfeits, and warns believers of the dire eternal consequences if they fail to wake up and repent. With global End Times signs escalating at a phenomenal rate, Jesus could return at any moment, but His Bride seems far from ready. The Gospel of Deception is a 'Midnight Cry' for the Bride of Christ to wake up and return to her First Love before it's too late...but will she respond?

Download or read book Confronting the Kingdom of Cults Counterfeit Christianity and Hategroups written by Dr. John Thomas Wylie and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Characterizing a faction as a religious gathering which claims approval by Christ and the Bible yet dismisses or mutilates the Gospel, Dr. Wylie talks about an assortment of religions, loathe gatherings, and fake Christianity. Recognizing cliques and detesting gatherings, fake Christianity is the thing required for clergy and lay people who will stand up to individuals from such religions. Inquiries in the content for every section make this a fundamental instrument for individual and gathering dialogues. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
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 262 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!
