One Gospel One Truth

The Lego Moment: When the “truth” of a heresy snaps into place By Joe McKeever “Even though we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed” (Galatians 1:8,9). The devil, that master of falsehoods and creator of fake religions, is no fool. He knows that a manmade religion has to look and feel right if people are going to buy it. So, he keeps tweaking it until he finds the right combination to achieve that “aha!” moment when everything falls into place. He blends a mixture of doctrinal teachings that sound impressive, emotional incentives that feel good, and outlandish rewards out in the future that entice the unthinking alongwith a certain amount of history which he has either created out of whole cloth or tampered with to make it say what he wishes and a fellowship of the deceived-and-deceiving so the seeker can be locked into the system. When the seeker is combing over the details of this new...

By Vernon Gray -   grayworxx@gmail.com Q uestion: - "Please can someone tell me once and for all when the Rapture will happen?" A nswer:- With all the hype surrounding the "Blood Moons" etc., it seems like everyone has an opinion of when the Rapture will take place and Tribulation will begin. Theories abound. Some are plausible and Biblically well thought out; and others are simply not worth exploring. NOTE: Just so that we are clear at the outset, this writer is unashamedly Premillennial and Pretrib in doctrine. The Rapture No one seems to understand that the rapture is sign less. As a result there is not a single sign that is to be given whereby we can predict to the day and the hour when the Rapture will happen. (Except perhaps for the sounding of a trumpet.) Check it out for yourself. Nowhere in Scripture are we given any hint as to when the Rapture will take place. Any speculation as to the timing of the rapture can only be w...

By Pastor Mike Taylor -   http://www.churchofgod-usa.org/1/post/2014/02/apostasy-grows-stronger.html  4:3  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;  4:4  And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.  (II Timothy 4:3-4)  Sometimes, if I allow myself, my heart becomes heavy with the direction of this country we live in, and for the rest of the world. Paul warned that a falling away from true religion of those following after Jesus Christ would be rampant and coming to a fulfillment at the end of the age.  This warning has been increasing in intensity and volume from its beginning nearly 1800+ years and the rise of apostasy in the form of Gnosticism and the beginnings of the transformation of the Roman Empire into a theocratic rule by the "Holy Roman Church" and its papacy. Anyone...

By Grant Phillips I was just thinking of my grandparents. All four were Christians and have been deceased for several years. The thought that comes to mind is, “If Jesus would instantly transfer them from Heaven to earth, right now, what would they think of this fallen world we now live in?” Our world is much different now than it was when they moved on to Heaven by their deaths. If you’ll think about it, you and I have grown accustomed (tongue in cheek) to the evil around us because it has come upon us slowly. I am reminded of the frog placed in tepid water. The water is heated gradually until the frog is boiled alive. If the frog had been placed in hot water, it would have attempted to jump out, but since it was heated gradually, it didn’t notice the heat until it was too late. Maybe this is why we don’t spend more time on our knees than we do. We have gotten so used to the degradation around us; we don’t notice it as much as we should. A new movie that is out now h...

 - Ron Graham - www.straitandnarrowministry.com "And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,"  Deuteronomy 10:12. The word "fear" is translated from the Hebrew word "yare'" which in context means "to fear, reverence, honour, respect." The Israelites were admonished to fear the Lord, walk in His ways, to love Him, and to serve Him. The above Scripture was directed to Israel but as born again believers in Jesus Christ we are to have the same attitude. Do you stand in awe of God? Do you revere, honor, and respect Him? Do you love Him? Every Christian would do well to heed this verse. Fearing God is a term that seems to have fallen by the wayside. Somehow we seem to think God is our buddy who just accepts us as we are and isn't very concerned when we go against His ways. I...
