Goats In The Pulpit; SBC & FBC Orlando Promote Apostasy (Part 2)
Bud Ahlheim has written a four-part article on the apostasy undertaken by First Baptist Church Orlando. We posted part one with the following lead-in to Bud’s piece: What happened at First Baptist Church Orlando the night of June 14 was the theological equivalent of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Goats In The Pulpit; SBC & FBC Orlando Promote Apostasy (Part 1)
Bud Ahlheim begins with a quote from Justin Peters: What happened at First Baptist Church Orlando the night of June 14 was the theological equivalent of the attack on Pearl Harbor. It was a day of infamy. It was the day that a flagship church of the Southern Baptist Convention, quite literally, sold its soul […]
Hillsong: Heresy Goes Hollywood
For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. Jude 4 Jude could have been talking about CEO and co-founder of Hillsong, Brian Houston. Houston’s critics–and there are many–claim he is a consummate […]

The National (Take A Verse Out Of Context) Day of Prayer
Bud Ahlheim of Pulpit & Pen tackles the 2 Chronicles 7:14 controversy. According to Ahlheim, this verse is ripped out of context and applied to Christians living in America because God refers to “my people.” “We wield it as a promise,” says Ahlheim, “imbue with perceived power, and expect from it a divinely-induced revival.” Exactly.

LOTZ … Of Nonsense
I’m going to go out on a limb and state that Anne Graham Lotz is not someone Christian women can trust to teach them the Bible, as she has demonstrated that she does not rightly handle the Word of Truth. (2 Tim. 2:15) My saying this will surely upset women who believe that Anne’s a solid […]
