In his latest blog post, Rick Becker reveals some of the heretical teaching that’s currently being passed off as biblical Christianity when it clearly is not — it’s satanic! Becker not only examines the teaching that’s being sold to the Christian “consumer” as “truth”; he discloses who’s doing the selling. A few examples (there are many) […]
Bible study author, speaker and blogger Michelle Lesley received the following questions from a visitor to her blog: Should Christians listen to the song Reckless Love?
