Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are we on the verge of a great apostasy in the church? "For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth and chase after myths." --2 Timothy 4:3-4 Jesus Christ is coming back. It is certainly a Christian's greatest hope during these difficult times. The Bible warns us that the last days will be tumultuous--wars and rumors of wars will spread (Matthew 24:6). In our age, the world seems to be spinning out of control, creating fear, confusion, and uncertainty. In addition to violence, pestilence, and epidemics, the Bible predicts a great "falling away" from God in the end times. Bible teachers call that "the great apostasy." Are we seeing evidence today in the church of this massive rejection of sound and wholesome teaching? Bestselling authors Mark Hitchcock and Jeff Kinley team up to examine the evidence from the teachers of our time. Are today's teachers allowing people to follow their own desires by telling them what they want to hear, as the Bible clearly predicts? Are major portions of the church ready to abandon sound and wholesome teaching? Together, Mark and Jeff explore alarming trends among today's church leaders and they are simply stunned by what they discover. The great apostasy is coming, but is it closer than we imagine? What does that mean for the future? Let Mark and Jeff be your steady guides to the difficult days ahead.

Causes of the Apostasy - Internal Causes VII. Internal Causes - Continued VIII. Internal Causes - Continued IX. Internal Causes - Continued X. Results of the Apostasy - Its Sequel Chapter 1 Excerpt 1. A belief common to all sects and churches professing Christianity is that Jesus Christ, the Savior and Redeemer of the human race, established His Church upon the earth by personal ministration in the meridian of time. Ecclesiastical history, as distinguished from secular history, deals with the experiences of the Church from the time of its establishment. The conditions under which the Church was founded first claim our attention. 2. At the beginning of the Christian era, the Jews, in common with most other nations, were subjects of the Roman empire. - (See Note 1, end of chapter.) They were allowed a considerable degree of liberty in maintaining their religious observances and national customs generally, but their status was far from that of a free and independent people. 3. The period was one of comparative peace, - a time marked by fewer wars and less dissension than the empire had known for many years. These conditions were favorable for the mission of the Christ, and for the founding of His Church on earth. 4. The religious systems extant at the time of Christ's earthly ministry may be classified in a general way as Jewish and Pagan, with a minor system - the Samaritan - which was essentially a mixture of the other two. The children of Israel alone proclaimed the existence of the true and living God; they alone looked forward to the advent of the Messiah, whom mistakenly they awaited as a prospective conqueror coming to crush the enemies of their nation. All other nations, tongues, and peoples bowed to pagan deities, and their worship comprised naught but the sensual rites of heathen idolatry. Paganism -(See Note 2, end of chapter.) was a religion of form and ceremony, based on polytheism - a belief in the existence of a multitude of gods, which deities were subject to all the vices and passions of humanity, while distinguished by immunity from death. Morality and virtue were unknown as elements of heathen service; and the dominant idea in pagan worship was that of propitiating the gods, in the hope of averting their anger and purchasing their favor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Windham Press is committed to bringing the lost cultural heritage of ages past into the 21st century through high-quality reproductions of original, classic printed works at affordable prices. This book has been carefully crafted to utilize the original images of antique books rather than error-prone OCR text. This also preserves the work of the original typesetters of these classics, unknown craftsmen who laid out the text, often by hand, of each and every page you will read. Their subtle art involving judgment and interaction with the text is in many ways superior and more human than the mechanical methods utilized today, and gave each book a unique, hand-crafted feel in its text that connected the reader organically to the art of bindery and book-making. We think these benefits are worth the occasional imperfection resulting from the age of these books at the time of scanning, and their vintage feel provides a connection to the past that goes beyond the mere words of the text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too often church adherents don't take seriously the issue of apostacy in their churches. We will accept a person falling away and coming back as many times as needed without thinking of the theological ramifications for allowing a person to continuously crucify Christ at their own whim. Owen in this work shows the serious problem that apostacy brings to a church body and also the seriousness in our own lives of people around us that fall away from the true and only Christian faith.

Download or read book Hidden Messiah written by Mark F. Kalita and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-10-18 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Mark F. Kalita''s release of "Hidden Messiah: Roman Conspiracy of Christian Apostasy" claims that the prophecy of horns within the seventh chapter of Judaic prophet Daniel''s book is about the Roman Catholic Church. Mark also claims to have deciphered the true calculations of the ''End Times'' using the Judaic Jubilee calendar to show that the second witness is currently upon the earth. In his new book, Mark writes that this second ''witness'' was born in 1963 and has been giving testimony to a world overcome with denial."If you look at history within the proper context and realize that the prophecy of Daniel was about spiritual matters and not of a temporal kingdom, the truth becomes clear. Zechariah quotes God as saying, ''Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit'' as did other prophets , so why would this be a temporal matter?" questions Mark in a recent interview. "In the 300 years after the first one gave his testimony, the emperors of Rome fought in a war over spirit. The Caesars claimed that they were gods. They did not like any other gods. In 380 CE, three Caesars, Theodosius I, Gratian, and Valentinian II, delivered the ''Edict of Thessalonica'' in order that all their subjects should profess the faith of the Bishop of Rome. The three horns gave their power to the one who was diverse from all the rest of the 10 others."In his book, Mark not only shows that 2014 CE is the beginning of the elusive ''End Times'', but his calculations also show when the followers of the first one found the ''light'' and had miracles of spirit, as recorded in the book of "Acts". Using Scriptural reference, Mark explains that Jesus was a man, the first ''anointed one'' of Judaic prophecy and that there is a second ''anointed one'' who is alive today. This "Hidden Messiah" is currently warning the people of the earth of the earth changes that will take place in the Judaic year of 5777, 2016 - 2017 CE."It is unfortunate that the Vicar of Rome has changed the times and the laws. The Judaic Jubilee calendar, as given to the people of the earth by the archangels, tells a fantastic story of the heavens and our place within it," Mark discloses about his work. "The people of the earth must realize that the earth resides within the heavens." Mark uses direct references taken from the ''King James Version'' of the bible which explains the ''two anointed ones'' within Judaic and Christian prophecy. The two ''messiah'' system explained within the book outlines how these two stand at different places within history."The thing with the dogma of Rome that I found most interesting is that there is no proof for their beliefs within their own canon. Even within the corrupted texts of Paul, he calls their Jesus a man," Mark explains. "I have a great amount of biblical proof within my book to support my findings. I have published volumes of information with direct, substantive quotes and proof from within all religious texts. They tell a far different story than what Rome has made up.""Religions of men were created by men for the benefit of men. In the heavens there is no religion, only the adoration of God. You are in the heavens," Mark concludes. "The family on earth has been given this planet to cherish, steward and keep for all generations of their family. Unfortunately, the Roman dogma runs counter to some very basic tenets within their own canon. Without direct substantive proof, the dogma makes unsupported claims about the heavens. I show a system based in facts and I am branded as evil and twisted. The Roman church has told stories based on no facts from within their own canon since before 380 and they are the ''bearers of truth'' and the voice of ''God'' that everyone should follow? Just read "Hidden Messiah: Roman Conspiracy of Christian Apostasy" for yourself and you can make your own decision whether you want to live with truth or within a delusion of a story created by a Caesar approximately 1650 years ago. 2014 is almost gone. 2016 is almost here."
Book Synopsis The Messianic Imperative by : Joseph Abrahams
Download or read book The Messianic Imperative written by Joseph Abrahams and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book, for the Website Begun as a scholarly work of religious and psychiatric import, 9/11 and its aftershocks has turned this work on messianism to the task of survival of our civilization. For the core motivations of widely disparate people Islamic terrorists, Israeli settlers, and American fundamentalists are frankly messianic. And they are positioned to move the world towards a disaster long depicted in apocalyptic terms on the Plains of Abraham, but now also present in our midst. A degree of self sacrifice is present in messianism, ranging from the purely spiritual to full expression in the Islamic terrorist who glories in a physical immolation that leads to eternal life. The crucial issue for the rest of us lies in its imperative nature, calling for the termination of our lives. Can we reach such people, who live in these other spiritual worlds, and who threaten to evict us from ours? They live in the certitude and rectitude of their cause, and are intolerant of the ambiguity of modern civilization. Their certitude lies in a strangely similar belief in a messenger of God who brings tidings of the End of Days on earth, and a coming glory in a heavenly company, populated by God and the principal figures of their religion. Each of these religions has its own visionary, man of God, or messiah, extant or to come. My thesis is that the key to reaching such imbued people, so alienated from the rest of us, is through utilization of the little we know of reaching alienated individuals and groups. That knowledge has been chiefly developed in asylums by the original alienists, psychiatrists, also the social and political sciences and the pastoral discipline. The Messianic Imperative: Scourge or Savior is offered as a contribution to that study. More so, it is offered as a journey into unfamiliar terrain. It may hopefully lead to a manual for action on the part of people, worldwide, alert to the current danger, who wish to contribute to the world family aborning in these parlous times.

Download or read book Project Apostasy written by Jesse Acuff and published by Author House. This book was released on 2008-08-29 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Apostasy: The Development and Propagation of the Trinitarian Doctrine is Satan's story. Spurred by his inordinate beauty and consumate pride, he rebelled against his Creator. Undeterred by his categorical defeat, he launched the most blasphemous doctrine to ever invade the Christian Church. Through his evil minions, the Babylonian king Nimrod and his mother-wife Semiramis, Satan developed the Trinitarian Doctrine which was spread worldwide by the Babylonian Mysteries, taken up by the Romish Church, who has been its most ardent disseminator since the 4th century AD. Through the ages this doctrine has become the darling of orthodox Christianity and is taught as fact when there is no evidence of it in the Scriptures. Nevertheless, it has affected millions by keeping them in abject spiritual darkness. A.W. Tozer, in his book The Knowledge of the Holy, on page 6, observes, "The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him." He further states, "Wrong ideas about God are not only the fountain from which the polluted waters of idolatry flow; they are themselves idolatrous." Project Apostasy and the Holy Trinity challenges the reader to search out the truth behind the development of the Trinitarian Doctrine. It behooves us to emulate the Bereans who searched the Scriptures daily seeking the truth. It is time that we returned to the Gospel the Apostles first delivered. Jesus quoted the Shema as his creed. "Hear O Israel, the Lord our God is one God." And in John 17: 3 he declared His Father as "the only true God." This is pure monotheism as opposed to the orthodox Trinitarian concept of three-in-one. We should, rather, take up the creed of Jesus and the Apostles and cease from our idolatrous worship of a triune God, a concept never taught in the pages of the Bible.
Book Synopsis Understanding End Times Prophecy by : Paul Benware
Download or read book Understanding End Times Prophecy written by Paul Benware and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.
