Our chapel is currently running a 5 part dvd series on the emergent church. The truth is that the "emergent" church just doesn't appear overnight. It started back in the seventies with folks dissatisfied with the preaching of hell, fire and brimstone. Slowly and slowly, a desire for something "new" was born in the hearts of many and the old landmarks of the faith were soon replaced with entertainment, clubs and paraphrases. Sin was watered down to mean shortcomings and the blood of the cross became offensive. So the Rick Warren, Joel Osteem/ Schuler mentality soon was taking the sharp edge off of the scriptures  With a careful look , one can see what Johanna Michaelson was talking about when she warned of eastern cultural ideas being introduced into the churches.
And we are talking here about EVANGELICAL churches who are buying into this new trend. While the Lord will always have a remnant of believers who stay relatively sound, many believers and professing believers will fall into this apostacy. Anything short of the cross of Calvary, repentance and eternal judgement, will eventually lead a church into the jaws of apostacy. And this IS creeping into your church, watch for it!






For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:


For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
