What he said: Pastor David Jeremiah urges Christians to be stewards of biblical truth in a ‘post-truth world’

By Nicole Alcindor, CP Reporter |  CP Church & Ministries | Wednesday, January 26, 2022

Excerpts: “Jeremiah suggested that truth is “disappearing from our culture” and disappearing from “television,” “magazines” and “newspapers.”

“We live in a post-truth world, which means the Word of God is more important than it has ever been,” Jeremiah said. “Post-truth means it used to be truth, but it’s not truth now to us. Post-truth is a word that describes our culture today.”

 


What he said: Christian leaders slam Lutheran denomination’s transgender bishop: a ‘revolt’ against God

9/15/2121  By Tyler O’Neil | Fox News

Excerpts: “Transgender ideology makes humans the architects and superintendents of existence rather than God,” the IRD president argued. “It also gnostically asserts human thoughts over physical reality,” he added, referencing the ancient Christian heresy of Gnosticism, which prioritized a person’s spiritual identity over the physical body.”

“While he encouraged churches to “offer love and compassion to all persons professing to be transgender,” he warned that “they should not elevate to senior leadership persons who think self-will trumps God’s designs.”

“Like Mohler and Tooley, Closson argued that the ELCA’s “embrace of transgenderism is completely at odds with Scripture.”

“God did not create androgynous beings; He created two complementary, biologically, and genetically sexed individuals. God built the complementarity of the sexes into the very fabric of creation,” he explained. “Encouraging, promoting, and celebrating transgenderism through the promotion of a transgender clergy represents just the latest step away from biblical orthodoxy for a denomination that long ago stopped caring what the Bible teaches on moral and ethical matters.”

“Mohler went even further. He claimed that the ELCA had embraced a new religion, different from Christianity.

“It’s a new religion that is trying to inhabit the space of traditional Christianity, trying to claim the titles, to claim ownership of the buildings, and to take ownership of the institutions while representing a religion that is at virtually every point contradictory to biblical Christianity,” he told Fox News. “The gospel of Jesus Christ in biblical terms is left far behind.”

“When I speak of the gospel, I’m speaking of the good news that God saves sinners through the atonement accomplished by the Lord Jesus Christ, this comes to those who repent. That’s a very different message than what is being preached by the ELCA,” Mohler argued. By redefining sin the denomination “redefines the saving work of Christ.”

 


What he said:  The Frank Jenner Story

by Stephen Tucker.  A DVD of the Frank Jenner story is available now from:  www.garywilkinson.eu

Excerpts: Both sailors, while on shore leave in Sydney, were approached by a man who asked the question: “Young man, if you were to die tonight, where would you be, in heaven or in hell?” …Frank Jenner, in his own way, and to the embarrassment of some Christians, got to the heart of the issue: he directly challenged sailors about their standing before God.  …He was so aware of his weakness that before each encounter on George Street he silently prayed: “I can do all things through him who gives me strength”.

“… if you were to die tonight,
where would you be,
in heaven or in hell?”

 


What he said:  An unlikely journey from agnostic gay man in prison to evangelical Bible professor

Caleb Parke By Caleb Parke | Fox News  Published April 8, 2019 
Excerpts:
  “Christopher Yuan teaches “Theology of Sexuality” at Moody Bible Institute — but his journey of faith started in a prison cell.  When Yuan came out as gay to his Chinese parents at 23, they gave him an ultimatum: choose us or them.

…In his new book, “Holy Sexuality and the Gospel: Sex, Desire, and Relationships Shaped by God’s Grand Story” Yuan tackles the tough questions on the intersection of the church and LGBTQ individuals….”

 


What he said:  Ohio pastor gives gift of life to stranger to show ‘reckless love for Jesus’

   Caleb Parke By Caleb Parke | Fox News  Published January 26, 2019
Excerpts:
  “…We came so far to help my mother, and I can’t walk away,” he said [to his wife]. “We were both so sad, but her response literally was, ‘Of course, we can do this for a child. This is living out the gospel for Jesus,’ and we both said ‘OK, let’s do it.'”

What she said: China to ‘Rewrite’ Bible to Include Buddhist Teachings, Infuse Worship Songs with ‘Chinese Elements’

By Leah Marieann Klett ( news@gospelherald.com ) Gospel Herald.com/ Oct 03, 2018 09:01 AM EDT

Excerpts: …hundreds of Chinese pastors recently signed a statement denouncing the government’s efforts to restrict Christianity.   Chinese “pastors say they are prepared to bear all losses – “even the loss of our freedom and our lives,” for the sake of the Gospel.”

Fu told CP that according to the former chairman of the [government’s] TSPM, they [TSPM] believe the “doctrine of justification of faith by Jesus Christ is too narrow.”

“He is promoting justification by love in doing good deeds. He essentially said that God is very inclusive so these communist party heroes he listed are doing so many good deeds and they should be accepted into Heaven by our God,” he explained. “It is kind of a universalist doctrine.”

The [Chinese pastor’s] statement also makes four points addressing the Chinese government’s continued crackdown on Christian churches.

  • Christian churches in China believe unconditionally that the Bible is the Word and Revelation of God.

  • Christian churches in China are eager and determined to walk the path of the cross of Christ and are more than willing to imitate the older generation of saints who suffered and were martyred for their faith.

  • Christian churches in China are willing to obey authorities in China whom God has appointed and to respect the government’s authority to govern society and human conduct.

  • For this reason, we believe and are obligated to teach all believers that all true churches in China that belong to Christ must hold to the principle of the separation of church and state and must proclaim Christ as the sole head of the church.

 


What he said:  Jeremy Lin Reveals Powerful Lesson He Learned from Studying ‘Sinful’ Old Testament Heroes

By Leah Marieann Klett ( news@gospelherald.com ) Apr 26, 2018 11:06 AM EDT

Excerpt:

In an email sent to his digital prayer group, the Taiwanese/American NBA star revealed that while studying the lives of Abraham, Jacob, Noah and other Bible “heroes,” he realized just how sinful they are were.

“Seriously, God has been really impressing on my heart that He continually uses broken, imperfect people,” he said. “I often put pressure on myself to be as close to perfect as I can otherwise God can’t use me. But the reality is that God uses sinful, doubtful and proud people all through Scripture.”

By Jim Denison | Thu 15 Mar 2018 7:28 EDT  https://www.christianpost.com/voice/why-billy-grahams-greatest-fear-should-be-ours.html

What explains Dr. Graham’s humility and integrity? Here was his greatest fear: “That I’ll do something or say something that will bring some disrepute on the gospel of Christ before I go.”

If we want our lives to impact our culture, we must make Billy Graham’s greatest fear ours as well.

Bentley – News on Todd Bentley

The charismatic movement has been troubled by unbiblical practices and teachings. I am amazed at how folks are so easily mislead. “Many have exchanged the truth for a lie and chosen experience over content.” Look and examine and see, and compare with what the Bible teaches.

False Prophets

“You may be asking yourselves, “How can we tell if a prophet’s message really comes from the Lord?”” -Deuteronomy 18:21. How can we distinguish the true from the false?

No Faith In Heaven

Faith will not be necessary in heaven. Faith and hope will be ¨done away¨with (1 Corinthians 13:v8). When we finally are brought into His Kingdom, instead of on this earth with His Holy Spirit, then we will have Him, not just merely faith and hope.

Christian Answers Regarding Islam

Christian Answers Regarding Islam 1. The Koran purports it does not contradict the Bible but supports it. The Koran declares that it was written to confirm the previous revelations and not to replace the Bible according to Sura 5:48 which says, “And We have sent down to you the Scripture with truth, authenticating what is […]

Biblical Homosexuality

…a Christian´s Perspective on Homosexuality Quoted from: http://www.indegayforum.org/news/show/31489.html Donny | April 18, 2008, 11:33am | # I’m up to the challenge of gay theology questions: In-hospitality towards others and “haughtiness” were the sins of Sodom. But Ezekiel is quite explicit about sexual sins being front and center as well. “Haughtiness” and the word “Gay” as […]

Inexplicable Joy

Heaven is a joyful place. That is hard for me to imagine… Everywhere I look around me, I see so many problems, issues and unresolved conflicts. But in heaven, they won’t exist anymore. There will only be joy because my sins have been paid for by the blood of Jesus Christ.  One of the main things that describes being in heaven is JOY. The word “joy” has a much deeper meaning than just happiness. To be happy can change so quickly. It can come and go in a moment. But joy…

Letter to Danny

We are continually bombarded by the fiery darts of the Evil One.  And when these little pricks hit us, we need to put-out the flames, quickly. Doubts, depression, feelings of inadequacy, troubles, unruly kids…, when they come at us, we “have to declare” the truths of God, and  we have to choose Truth over lies. 

Children’s Bible in a Nutshell

A quick overview of the Bible (tongue-in-cheek). A child was told to write a book report on the entire Bible. 

About Biblical Inerrancy

Would God give us erroneous documents and call them “His”? Dumb idea! God brought everything together to form the Bible. Evidence is overpowering as you read what the Bible is, and what it tells us. “It is the history of the Bible that makes it unique among ‘sacred texts.’ See who wrote the Bible, how its reportive style is backed by archeology and historians…” – Quote from “Why You Can Believe the Bible” (www.everystudent.com).

Oh what a day that will be!
Wow! To enter into the Kingdom of God - freely as His redeemed child. No cringing in shame, no burden of sinfulness before Almighty Holy God. I can only imagine.

Jesus, the second man, is the Lord from Heaven
"The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.” In 1 Corinthians 15:47 the Apostle Paul explained that Jesus, while on earth, was absolutely God-man.  He was not a mere man, ever.

There Is Only One God
Getting tired of people flippantly saying, ¨Oh my god!¨ Ever wonder who their ¨god¨ is!? Does that ¨god¨ know he is ¨theirs¨? Do you say that? We are quite the god-makers, are we not! What do you mean…“your God”?

God Is Not Distant
God is not some far away, distant-from-you, dis-concerned bubble of energy, inside some aura of mist on a mysterious planet far far away…. “And the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore” –Psalm 121:8

When it comes to God, who wants mere opinions?
When talking “God” and “Truth” – I really do not care what you think. You should not care what I think. What matters is “what God thinks”.
Lost I Came To Him Oh the wonder of that love of our fathomless Creator, to save me in spite of my self-centered soul. Lost and rebellious, He chose me. Pursued and wooed, what mystery – grace. I said yes to Creator God. To know…
Time as it really is Since Heaven is not regulated by time, the passage of time on earth is a separate event. *We will all step out of time together – into God’s presence, with no “time lag”,…The time it takes to go from earth to God's presence - is instant. There is no waiting around in the next dimension for earth time to finish, no midway point of gathering, no Purgatory. It will be an instantaneous experience for all mankind that ever lived. At the moment of death, our soul instantly leaves....

No Tolerance for Error
God is not sloppy nor wishy-washy.... There is no room at all – for error – when it comes to being right with God. You are either all in, or you are all out. Are you sure you’re in?

Simple View of Life  a simple view of everything. God of Everything that is – created everything. We are very fortunate that He is loving and kind, and really, really wants us.
Ashamed of Yourself?
Ever done something you are ashamed of?  Come on now, you’re sitting there by yourself – ‘fess-up.  Nobody listenin’ to your brain confess.  So... Yes?  Scenario: “You have? What!?
Being Christian What's it like these days to be a Christian? Really a Christian. For many, what the Bible teaches is generally okay, but, when it comes to certain specificities, what it says, they reason, needs to be interpreted in the light of today's enlightened realities. But -- will that work in - The End - when we stand before Him, physically? Stop and think about that Day.
Tomorrow
Tomorrow is the fool’s day. Tomorrow may never come. I may not get older. This may be it. 3.18.2017
Vortex of Good & Evil As mere humans, we are engulfed in the vortex of battle between good and evil. We must remember – it is God who created us, not we ourselves.  1.25.2017
What God has going on with us here on this planet.
God downloaded to earth ...inserted Himself into our history.  Jesus came to earth in order to satisfy the Courts of Heaven for our freedom. 3.23.2016

Cognitive Dissonance
...that extreme feeling of discomfort some folks get when their core belief is challenged or contradicted. What they think (“cognitive”) is rattled (dissonance) by what other evidences purport to be true – in direct conflict with what they hold to be “true”.  8.14.2018
Actually Try To Do The Deed 3.23.2016   “It’s not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better."

What God Did for Man
…The Simple Gospel of Jesus Christ. God walked the earth as a man. Have you ever wondered how it all got started – the universe, the earth, nature, animals, you and your “like”, mankind? 2.19.2018
The Bible is “able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation”
Do you honestly want to know how to get right with God?  Jesus promised He would save us for an eternity of only good, nothing bad. 9.31.2020

Forgiveness for evil deeds done

Time and tide are relentless. So are the many relentless Old Testament prophecies happening right now – but not in the way most thought they would be fulfilled. Are you ready for “the end” that Jesus spoke of? Take Jesus’ Challenge.

So this is what “woke” sounds like

So this is what “woke” sounds like?  You think?

Euphrates River

Words of Mere Men Are Not God’s Words

Mark 7:7 “They worship Me in vain [their worship is meaningless and worthless, a pretense], Teaching the precepts of men as doctrines [giving their traditions equal weight with the Scriptures].” You’d think it would be quite obvious, you think? When church leaders announce that they speak directly from God, they instantly become a bonafide false prophet if their words are later shown to be wrong. False prediction = False Prophet. Easy.

Dancing with doctrines of demons

We are warned in the Bible not to fool around with the Devil and his occult practices. Are you?
