Book Synopsis Counterfeit Kingdom by : Holly Pivec
Download or read book Counterfeit Kingdom written by Holly Pivec. This book was released on 2022-11-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a new reformation happening in the church? It depends on who you ask. The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a popular and fast-growing new movement of Christians who emphasize signs and wonders, and teach that God is giving new revelation through new apostles and prophets. But is this biblical Christianity? In Counterfeit Kingdom, apologists and NAR experts Holly Pivec and Douglas Geivett show how the NAR’s key tenets distort the gospel, twist the Scriptures, are influenced by New Age practices, and lead faithful Christians to shipwreck their faith. They also offer practical suggestions for readers who are already influenced by the NAR, curious about it, or concerned about loved ones who have been swept up in the movement. What used to be on the fringes of the church is now mainstream, and many are being influenced by it unaware. This book is a wake-up call.

Book Synopsis Confronting: the Kingdom of Cults, Counterfeit Christianity, and Hategroups by : Dr. John Thomas Wylie
Download or read book Confronting: the Kingdom of Cults, Counterfeit Christianity, and Hategroups written by Dr. John Thomas Wylie. This book was released on 2018-02-07. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Characterizing a faction as a religious gathering which claims approval by Christ and the Bible yet dismisses or mutilates the Gospel, Dr. Wylie talks about an assortment of religions, loathe gatherings, and fake Christianity. Recognizing cliques and detesting gatherings, fake Christianity is the thing required for clergy and lay people who will stand up to individuals from such religions. Inquiries in the content for every section make this a fundamental instrument for individual and gathering dialogues. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Book Synopsis Counterfeit Christianity by : Roger E. Olson
Download or read book Counterfeit Christianity written by Roger E. Olson. This book was released on 2015-08-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historic heresies didn’t die or fade away. Each generation boasts its own. Even while these counterfeit teachings remain outside the accepted bounds of Christianity, modern-day versions plague churches.So how does a church leader or pastor understand and deal with these age-old controversies when they pop up in the congregation? In this book, Roger Olson describes the curses but also gifts that heresies bring the Church. While heresies can occasionally correct a version of orthodoxy, they are not simple confusions or misunderstandings about impenetrable mysteries of divine revelation. Instead they undermine the faith and are dangerous distortions. The author describes major heresies and how the church dealt with them, the players, and what pastors can do to address these faith issues in order to educate congregations about Jesus, God, and salvation. Also included are questions for individual or group study. Also available - a Leader guide with DVD in which Adam Hamilton hosts on-screen conversations with Roger Olson (9781501806360)

Book Synopsis Counterfeit Gospels by : Trevin Wax
Download or read book Counterfeit Gospels written by Trevin Wax. This book was released on 2011-04-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the biggest danger to the church of Jesus Christ is not blatant heresy, the moral failures of church leaders, persecution, the rise of Islam or the loss of our rights? What if the biggest threat is counterfeit gospels within the church, ways of thinking and speaking about the good news that lead to a gradual drift from the truth of Scripture? The gospel is like a three-legged stool. There’s the Gospel Story – the grand narrative of Scripture (Creation, Fall, Redemption, Restoration). Within that overarching framework, we make the Gospel Announcement about Jesus Christ (His perfect life, substitutionary death, resurrection, exaltation). The gospel announcement then births the Gospel Community: God’s church – the embodiment of the gospel, the manifestation of God’s kingdom. A counterfeit gospel is like a colony of termites, eating away at one of the legs of this stool until the whole thing topples over. This book exposes six common counterfeits (Therapeutic, Judgmentless, Moralist, Quietist, Activist, and Churchless) that would get us off track. The goal of Counterfeit Gospels is to so deepen our love for the unchanging gospel of Jesus Christ that we would easily see through the many counterfeits that leave us impoverished. So come, love the gospel, recognize and overcome the counterfeits, and be empowered for ministry!
