This week we'll take a look at the main charges against the false teachers. Jude is certainly helping us to contend for the faith by being aware of the dangers of heresy and apostasy. But also, his warnings hit close to home as we examine our own hearts and minds. Join us as we dive deep into the main section of Jude! Services are at 9am and 11am.

Satan, Donatism, the reason for bread and wine and more in today's Open Line Friday with Colin Donovan.
Christians have historically been persecuted by those who opposed the gospel of grace (grace alone, faith alone, Christ alone, Bible alone). What we may be on the cusp of is a movement of those claiming to be Evangelical Christians rising against other Evangelical Christians. Some Christians who have the ability to discern false Christianity and a willingness to stand against it will be attacked by those who refuse to make a difference. We may see what the believers who so desperately want a political windfall put aside the very basics of the faith in order to achieve temporal goals. The Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) world has long fallen prey to that temptation. And what makes it worse is the desire to be lauded as "loving" by openly refusing to defend the true faith.

The DNA of Apostacy _ 1 Timothy 4_1-5 by Cypress Bible Church
The sermon explores the dangers of false teaching and apostasy, drawing from Peter's second letter and highlighting the deceptive nature of persuasive rhetoric that entices individuals away from genuine faith. It emphasizes that while the grace of God offers freedom, those who turn away from the truth face a worse fate than if they had never known it, comparing such a return to the actions of a dog returning to its vomit or a sow returning to the mire. Ultimately, the message calls for discernment, vigilance against deceptive influences, and a steadfast commitment to following Christ, while maintaining compassion and hope for those who have strayed.
A quiet departure is reshaping the church from within. Cultural influence, shallow teaching, and distorted beliefs are pulling many away from biblical truth. This urgent warning exposes the growing spiritual drift, the signs of deeper compromise, and why holding to truth is more critical than ever.

Send us a textArnie, Fred and Glenn continue their discussion of the apostacy or falling away from the New Testament pattern that occurred and, in this episode, continue to look at its history. We reviewed some of the departures we noted last week, in baptism and the Lord's Supper. Some began to worship men and women in the Catholic church, and we note that. Priests in the Catholic church also began hearing people confess their sins to them and we look at what this meant. We also discuss what was added to all the Bibles for a time. There were rules set up regulate what was eaten on certain days and, whether an individual ought to fast and even if priests and nuns could be married. We discuss these. Popes took upon themselves new titles and authorities that we note as well. All of these changes ended up causing a split between the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern, Greek Orthodox Church. We complete this episode by beginning to discuss some of the individuals, such as John Wycliff, John Hus, Martin Luther, who began to question the changes that were made which resulted in what is called the Protestant Reformation. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. A transcript of this Buzzsprout episode is provided for your convenience.
Send us a textFred and Glenn begin this episode noting that Paul predicted that there would be a falling away or apostacy that was a departure from the original gospel soon after the death of the apostles. We note that God has always provided a pattern for His people to follow. Noah was given specific instructions on how to build the ark. We note that Moses was given a pattern for building the tabernacle and those implements in it. We also talk about the pattern for the temple that God gave to David and the fact that David gave that same pattern to Solomon to follow in building the temple in Jerusalem. We then move our discussion to note that the New Testament contains the pattern for Christ's Church as well as the pattern for the Christian's behavior. We then begin to look at the historical record of the apostasy that Paul predicted would begin among the elders or bishops. We talk about the creation of dioceses that occurred in the second century and how this departed from the New Testament pattern. We then look at the changes that were instituted relating to the pattern for the bishops and the resulting hierarchy. We look briefly at Constatine's Edict of Milan that he issued in AD313 and what it did. We next talk about the Council of Nicaea and what it did in AD325. We close out this episode by noting when the first universal Pope or Bishop was named and what the structure of the church of that day resembled. We will begin the next episode talking about Constatine granting pagans church membership. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.
Psalm 78 & Proverbs 22: Hypocrisy is the High Road to Apostacy by Shawn Ozbun
We chat about denominational systems and the pastor/priest system seriously clouds our responsibility as individual believers to "study to show [ourselves] approved unto God, rightly dividing the Word of Truth" (2 Tim 2:15). The system also creates an enormous entryway for error and heresy and even a denial of the foundational truths of the faith (including a denial of the finished work of Christ). Surrendering our individual responsibility before God has destroyed many believers and has destroyed the truths of the revelation of our Apostle for this age, Paul.

A new MP3 sermon from Mount Zion Bible Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Perseverance and Apostacy Subtitle: Exposition of Hebrews Speaker: Pastor Jeff Pollard Broadcaster: Mount Zion Bible Church Event: Sunday Service Date: 2/2/2025 Bible: Hebrews 3:12-19 Length: 61 min.
The United States remains a somewhat religious society. Religious telecasts and podcasts are replete. Nevertheless, the morality of the nation has continued to decline. Bottom line: the U.S. is religious and godless at the same time. We are experiencing apostasy. Christianity lacks conviction and relationship with Christ. It has become a religious designation only. Today's message looks at this dilemma, and calls for something deeper.
Today we look at the apostacy and the need for a restoration.
In this episode, Gerrit discusses the claim that President Joseph Fielding Smith destroyed pages of Joseph Smith's history so that the saints wouldn't be upset with some of the things found in the history. Gerrit also destroys Sydney Rigdon's claims to lead the Church after the death of the Prophet Joseph Smith. THANK YOU to all of those who donated to Sweetwater Rescue.

Dr. Vincent Valentyn talks about life, the church, the kingdom of God, and leadership.
Following on from the previous teaching, this session reveals a third warning in the Book of Hebrews addressed to Jews who had converted from Judaism to Christianity and who were being persecuted for deserting their faith. They were now considering reverting to the Jewish faith for safety reasons. The passage warns that this action would result in persecution by the world shifting to discipline and correction by the Lord—a 'problem' far greater than what they were currently experiencing. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dr-vincent-g-valentyn/support

Prophetic Apostacy
How would you define the 'Black Church'. Is there such a thing, biblically? The title has been used over and over throughout history and we are realizing just how divisive it is. The 'Black Church' is to be distinguished from Christians who are black. The black church is a politicized and secularized segment of black Americans who see Christian faith merely as a cultural aspect of their greater identity - blackness. In this church, Jesus is not Lord but a mascot of the culture and following after Him is not a priority. We look at the many diverging faith leaders today within the 'black church' and connect their apostacy with the natural trajectory of the historical black church. If Brandon could tell the story, the 'black church' is a synagogue of Satan. S.M.

When you go through seasons where God feels distant, you might think it's because you did something wrong. A recent caller struggled with not sensing the Spirit and feared it was because she had backslid and wavered in her faith. She asked if doubting was apostasy and if she had lost her salvation.The good news for believers is the Spirit lives in you no matter what you feel. Your rightness with God isn't based on the strength of your faith, how much time you spend in the Word, or whether you stumble or doubt.As I share in this episode, when you're saved, you're saved forever, and it's because of God's goodness, not your doing. You'll find great encouragement when you focus on what He's done and how He sees you!We hope you enjoyed this episode.
