Stand Up for the Truth

Telling the truth in a hostile world

Amy Spreeman — Thu, 17 May 2012 13:41:16 +0000

It’s one thing to have spiritual discussions and even disagreements with fellow brothers and sisters in Christ over theological differences. But when you are talking about spiritual matters with those who do not know Jesus, either by choice or because they’ve simply not heard, we do need to start with where people are. The problem [...]

If you haven’t heard about the new book titled, “The Harbinger” by Jonathan Cahn, you will want to turn up the volume. This is a book that is capturing our full attention, and proclaims that Isaiah Chapter 9 is an urgent wake-up call for all Americans, especially in light of the 9-11 attacks. Jonathan Cahn is [...]

Amy Spreeman — Wed, 16 May 2012 03:26:16 +0000

As we’ve covered the dangerous aspects of the Signs and Wonders Movement, we’ve wondered what the effect of this experiential spirituality has on young people. This article over on God Discussion is about a summer camp run by IHOP (International House of Prayer), that trains 6-12 year olds in the art of performing signs and wonders. [...]

Is the Church submerging?

Amy Spreeman — Tue, 15 May 2012 13:12:34 +0000

The Bible warns us about a great delusion that will take place prior to the second coming of Jesus Christ. Jesus Himself wants to warn us so that we will be prepared, and said that many of us will fall away. Is that delusion already underway in our Body of Christ today? We’ve talked about [...]

The day Christendom died

Amy Spreeman — Tue, 15 May 2012 11:01:48 +0000

It didn’t come with a crackle of lightening or the tearing of tunics and tears. It came with thunderous applause. I am sharing this article from Dr. Peter Jones over at The Truthxchange: May 09, 2012: The Official End of Christendom? Fox News journalist, Shep Smith, welcomed President Obama into the 21st century and declared those [...]

Brian McLaren Wants End Time Believing Christians Robustly Confronted

Not only has McLaren not backed down, but more and more leaders are joining him. Check out the related articles at the end of this one.

Old earth and young earth: Answers in Genesis

Amy Spreeman — Mon, 14 May 2012 13:27:54 +0000

How old is the Earth? Does the Bible account for dinosaurs? What about Noah’s Ark? These are questions we all have about the Book of Genesis and the creation of the world. So how do you reconcile your questions with what Scripture teaches about the beginning of time? We’re going to talk with two guests [...]

The Fleecing of Christianity

Amy Spreeman — Fri, 11 May 2012 13:16:41 +0000

It seems no one wants to rock the boat anymore. We’ve become a Body of sheep who have been groomed by the world and by the Church that Christianity is about being nice and being tolerant. It has made us vulnerable not only to full-on frontal attacks, but subtle, sweet sounding lies that almost sound [...]

How to hear God’s voice 100% of the time!

Amy Spreeman — Fri, 11 May 2012 08:08:00 +0000

I found this article over at the Letter of Marque site, and it is a response to the popular experiential teachings by some who claim that we must all be in tune to hear God’s voice–His actual voice–speaking into our lives. I have seen many Christians, young people in particular, who have been tragically harmed [...]

Are you called to contend for Truth?

Amy Spreeman — Thu, 10 May 2012 13:03:17 +0000

“He will give beauty for ashes, joy instead of mourning, praise instead of despair.” – Isaiah 61:3. There are days when it is hard to cling to that Truth. It seems that there is no shortage of challenges that the Body of Christ faces in these days that we are in. And there are some [...]
