Why is that important to this site you ask? Because the gay christian movement is little more than a religious version of the socio-political gay movement. Its goals, agenda, character and ills all mirror their parent movement with one addition: a Christian veneer. Its our view that it is much more sinister because it masquerades as part of the Body of Christ when in essence it is actively working against the mission of the church and the Lord Jesus.
Deception becomes the homosexual movement like nothing else. Its rather shocking when …

The June 7th episode of TBN featured a rare moment of sound biblical teaching from Milwaukee based Bishop Darrell Hines in an interview with Mark Chironna. Not rare for Hines, rare for TBN.
Thankfully, this was devoid of the gratuitous set ups that are usually the custom of stale TBN interviews. Chironna gave Hines liberty to express what was “burning in his heart” at that time. And what followed was 99.9% lean meat. It was clear that Hines was speaking truth because there were no perfunctory “clap right here” moments for …

Pastor Blaine Bartel of Northstar Church in Dallas is the most recent pastor caught in adultery.  On April 29th of this year Charisma Magazine reported that he stepped down from his post as pastor after he acknowledged that he’d had an affair. Bartel and his wife Cathy have been married 28 years and are in pursuit of repairing their marriage.
It’s unfortunate when a pastor or church leader commits adultery.  It causes dysfunction both within his natural household and his church congregation. It causes division within the home as well …

Excellent teaching video by John Piper on why homosexuality is wrong. Piper goes beyond authority to explain why homosexuality is not in the will of God. This seven minute video well worth your viewing education.

Amos 8:11 says, ” Behold the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not famine of bread, nor thirst for water, but hearing the words of the Lord.” 
In these current days the American Church does not suffer from famine for water, bread or even “preaching”, but a famine of hearing the Word of the Lord.  American Heritage Dictionary defines famine as, “a drastic and wide-reaching shortage of food. A drastic shortage; dearth.”  The Hebrew word for famine is ra’ab(raw-awb) which means “hunger”, “dearth”, “famine”.
All across America …

In just a generation, we’ve witnessed a stunning devolution of perspective on sexuality in the church. While some can only discern a faint whisper of the fallout, everyone with working spiritual ears can hear a scream. We’ve been forced to look at something that few wanted to acknowledge, but out of the ashes of sexual immorality, a phoenix cry for purity has arisen.
Let’s get the bad news out of the way. Practical, balanced teaching on sexual purity and living it out with integrity has an anemic history …

For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 1 Tim 4:3 NIV
[An elder] must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it. Titus 1:9 NIV
You must teach that which is in accord (in harmony with) sound doctrine. Titus 2:1
There is no …

This is such a powerful study guide/questionnaire to help you learn the truth about false teachers. There’s no denying we are contending with an abundance of them today. They are primarily attracted to the church by money, power, fame, prestige and control. Although such things lure them in, they are kept in power by self imposed ignorance (Hosea 4:6), passivity and biblical illiteracy.  Some false teachers carefully cultivate public images as teachers of righteousness, yet their personal lives are filled with sexual immorality, lies and manipulation of God’s people. Again …

Some Christians who oppose homosexuality have for the longest used 2 Tim 3:1-3 as a passage to condemn homosexuality. In the interest of rightly dividing the word of truth, we should know that it does not apply. Of course, that in no way makes homosexuality any more acceptable, but we need to clear this up.
Specifically, the phrase in question is “without natural affections”. The Apostle Paul used it in his list of latter day transgressions mankind will exhibit.  Dr. Henry Morris, Ph.D. of the Institute for Creation Research explains why …

We’ve often been accused of double standards, cherry picking and proof texting in our opposition to homosexuality.  But is there an explanation as to why homosexuality is still sin although, the Old Testament death penalty by stoning is no longer applicable?
President and Founder of  Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry (CARM), Matt Slick attempts to explain it.
Critics of the Bible often cite Old Testament instances of slavery, violence against homosexuals, wiping out nations, etc., as evidence of a morally inadequate set of rules.  They will also often ask why present-day Christians …
