Beware! False Preachers That Have Crept In

Sunday, May 13, 2012
Led by Joel Fields 
  • 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3  -  In the last days there will be (and is now) a falling away or departure from Biblical faith.
  • Jude 3-4  -  The gospel is so holy and precious that it must be contended for and protected.
  • 2 Peter 2:1  -  The word privily means to "come right along side of" meaning they are bringing damnable heresies in right alongside a little truth... very deceptive.
    • The best lie always has a little bit of truth mixed in to it.
  • Deuteronomy 13:1-3  -  The heretics may do miracles and many wonderful things but their doctrine is all wrong. These people are sent by God to see if you love Him with your heart and soul.
    • Notice it says heart and soul, but not mind... loving God intellectually is not enough... we must love Him with all our heart and soul.
  • 2 Peter 2:3  -  These deceitful ones make merchandise of you... Look at most TV preachers... all they want is your money.
  • 2 Peter 2:5  -  Noah was to go into the ark for protection just as we need to run to the ark of God to be protected from the deception of false doctrine.
  • 2 Peter 2:15  -  It's pretty bad when God has to raise an animal to get your attention!
  • Isaiah 56:7, 10  -  God wants ALL people to come and worship Him in prayer, but His watchmen are dumb and not protecting, they are greedy and can never have enough.

  • 2 Timothy 2:17-18  -  Some may think that it is mean and wrong to point out the names of our modern day false teachers like Joyce Myer, Rick Warren, Joel Osteen, etc. but Paul named names and the heresy so that others would be warned of them.
  • Jude 17-18  -  We are commanded to remember the words of the apostles who warned of the mockers that walk in their ungodly lusts
  • 2 Peter 2:17  -  The midst of darkness is not reserved for prostitutes and child molesters, but for the false teachers... this is how seriously God takes defiling His word and gospel!
  • Revelation 2:1-4  -  We must return to our first love, Jesus!
Prayer Requests

Don't Be Naked! - Loins Girt with Truth

The Whole Armor of God This Week: Loins Girt with Truth Click image to enlarge. Sunday, October 14, 2012 Led by Eric Gintert Ephesians 6:10-18 The Whole Armor of God is meant to protect us, that we may be able to stand against the powers and principalities that come against us. What are the Loins Girt about with Truth for? The loins help you to stand. They give you support to stand. They help you to get up when you've fallen. John 8:31-32 The truth makes you free and you'll know His disciples because they continue in His Word. John 14:6 Jesus is the  way, the  truth, and the  life. He is NOT a  way, a  truth, or a  life. Hebrews 13:8-9 The truth of Jesus does not change. Don't be carried away with diverse and strange doctrines. The truth is being trodden down in our day and age. He did not leave us blind in the Word.  How much are we putting our trust in the Lord? We must put on the truth so we're not carried away with fa

Don't Be Naked! - The Breastplate

The Whole Armor of God This Week: The Breastplate Click image to enlarge. Sunday, September 30, 2012 Led by Eric Gintert Ephesians 6:10-18 The Whole Armor of God Isaiah 59:16-17 This is what God wants us to be clothed with... the very thing He clothed His Son with! Ephesians 6:14 The breastplate protects the heart and desires. 1 Thessalonians 5:4-9 Your heart represents your desires. Are you desiring your own righteousness or His righteousness? Jude 3 says, "...   ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints" yet we're doing the same things as the world. We say that we have our armor on, but really, we're sleeping. William Booth's Breastplate of Righteousness William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army, was not concerned with thrift stores, food lines, and raising money (while all this is a good work and nothing is wrong with the cause). He guarded his heart by having a conc

Freaking out in Times of Peace

Sunday, June 24, 2012 Led by Eric Gintert Encouragement from the Lord that He is our rock and fortress, He is our peace in the storm... so stop FREAKING OUT! :-) Psalm 3:1-8 The enemy is not necessarily people coming against him, but powers and principalities (spiritual warfare). The battle is often in the mind with doubt, depression, etc. This is why we are commanded not to be fearful of the one who destroys the body, but the one who destroys the soul and body in hell. (Matthew 10:28) David knew that God was his shield and strong tower, his protector. Matthew 8:23-27 In the midst of the storm, Jesus was sleeping in the bottom of the boat. Even when everyone else was freaking out, Jesus was at peace. Peace was right their in the ship with them, and they were freaking out! Jesus rebuked them saying, "Why are ye fearful, o ye of little faith?" Prayer Requests Fields Family  -  house to rent Joel F. mom & dad  -  mom going through 4 surgery in last
