(In the Word — Post 4) The Old Heresy Wearing New Clothes One of the most persistent errors in church history has returned—not openly hostile to Christ, but cloaked in Christian language. It speaks of knowing God, abiding, spiritual life now, and the kingdom within, yet quietly dismisses what the apostles insisted on: the incarnation,…
Series: Hard Questions, Holy Answers — Post 8 Introduction Many believers have been taught that after salvation, they still possess a “sin nature” alongside their new nature in Christ. This teaching has become deeply entrenched in modern evangelicalism. But is it biblical? Is it what Paul really taught in Romans 7 — or is it a theological misreading…
And Why They Crumble Under Scripture Purpose: To biblically and clearly dismantle the core tenets listed in Mike Vlach’s post by showing how they contradict the New Testament revelation of Christ, the nature of the Church, and the fulfilled promises of God. His post here lays out the standard framework of Dispensational theology in compact…
How Rome elevates Mary beyond scripture, turning her into a quasi-divine figure Yes, Mary is the “mother of Jesus,” and therefore in a limited sense the “Mother of God”—because Jesus is God. But that title, coined later in church history (Theotokos, “God-bearer”), was originally a defense of Christ’s divinity, not a license to elevate Mary….
One of the most spiritually dangerous aspects of the Septuagint is its inclusion of the Apocrypha — a group of writings that were never part of the Hebrew canon and were never affirmed by Christ or the apostles. By accepting these books as Scripture, the Septuagint opens the door to doctrines that contradict the gospel…
Hebrew Roots and the Return to Bondage Series From the Garden of Eden to modern theological fads, Satan’s strategy has always included twisting the Word of God. Today, the Hebrew Roots Movement continues that ancient pattern by reinterpreting and repurposing New Testament scriptures to suit a return-to-Torah narrative. As with all false teaching, they prey…
Hebrew Roots and the Return to Bondage Series The distinction between the Gospel of Christ and the so-called ‘Gospel of Torah’ is not a matter of nuance — it is the heart of the New Testament. In the book of Galatians, Paul issues one of the strongest rebukes in all of Scripture, not against immorality,…
Hebrew Roots and the Return to Bondage Series Introduction: A Crisis of Covenant Clarity One of the major points of deception in the Hebrew Roots Movement is the confusion over which covenant believers are currently under. Many are led to believe that the Old Covenant—centered on Torah observance, feast days, and Sinai regulations—is still binding…
Hebrew Roots and the Return to Bondage Series Many well-meaning Christians have been introduced to a doctrine called “Two House Theology.” It claims that the Church is not merely grafted into the covenant promises through Christ, but that Gentile believers are actually physical descendants of the so-called “lost tribes” of Israel—especially the tribe of Ephraim….
Progressive Dispensationalism is often presented as a more refined and thoughtful version of the older system. It softens some of the harsh divisions of classical dispensationalism, claiming to see more continuity between Israel and the Church, the Old and New Testaments, and even Christ’s present and future rule. But does this “progressive” model fix the…
