He is risen! He is risen, indeed. Crossway Community Church

The Idolaters: the Word of Faith and New Apostolic Reformation cults

      Their greed, their love of money and fame, is so obvious to the discerning eye. They are idolaters. Those who are in Christ who have been given the "spirit of discernment" saw immediately who these charlatans were as soon as they arrived on the scene back in the mid '70's. Other disciples of Christ saw the stark contradictions between what these people were spewing and the word of God and avoided them and their kind. We are amazed and astounded at the sheer number of people who have bought what they are selling. It seems that our generation of religious folk desires teachers to scratch their itching ears as Paul warned Timothy would happen (it was more than just a warning, it was a prophecy.)  2 Timothy 4:1-4.     The likes of Oral Roberts and Pat Robertson and Paul Crouch and Jim Bakker with their infamous "Christian" networks poisoned the visible church with there lies and heresies. Little ol' ladies watching their tv's felt compelled to supp...

When I heard about Jesus

 On a Tuesday morning in March of 1974, I was sitting by myself in the cafeteria of Central Piedmont Community College smoking and drinking coffee. I was on the GI Bill which paid all of my tuition with some left over for books. I was also playing drums with a local cover band, The Close Connection. We had a great agent who booked us in some great gigs, and I was single. I did all the things young men did back in those days, and being a musician to boot, I was quite popular with the young ladies. But on this particular Tuesday morning my life changed forever.  Two young ladies came to me and asked if they could talk with me, I said yes. It turns out one of them wanted to tell me about Jesus and my desperate need for forgiveness (the other had ulterior motives I found out later). She was very persuasive even when I told her, "maybe later, say, when I'm 30." She said, "So, you're saying you're just not ready?" I said, "Yeah. I'm just not ready....

The Rise of the Crazies; Hitler to Steven Furtick

      19 We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one . ( 1 Jn. 5:19 ESV)      Have you ever wondered how crazy people like Adolf Hitler came to power? How you ever wondered how crazy people like Jim Jones rose to power? Have you ever wondered how egregiously heretical people like Kenneth Copeland and Jesse Duplantis and Jim Bakker and Creflo Dollar and T.D. Jakes and Steven Furtick rose to power? Well, if you have, you are in good company; so have I and a gazillion others. In fact, a thousand books have been written addressing that very question. All one need do is Google the names of these deceivers. 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.  4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.  5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Chr...
