In an effort to redefine Christianity, alarming numbers of popular yet apostate “evangelical” leaders known as “The Emerging Church Movement” are abandoning historic and biblical standards.
In this new 1+ hour video, Eric defines Emergent thinking and terms, concisely exposes the practical and doctrinal errors of the Emergents and draws the striking parallels to New Age thought.

Friday, December 2, 2011 | Post a Comment Eric begins by explaining some of the avenues that New Age deception has taken as "East moved West" over the past 50 years. An example of this is the wildly popular author and speak, Anthony Robbins who has borrowed from voodoo, eastern mysticism, and Hinduism. As always, the Bible gives clear direction and a real relationship with Jesus Christ is the antidote against the New Age. As Eric states, "New Agers are dying to meet Jesus...they just don't know it! He'll the answer to every need they're looking inside themselves to try and satisfy.

Commencing on Friday, April 11, 2008 the Dalai Lama, spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhists worldwide, began a five day conference in Seattle. His sold out speeches, workshops and panel discussions drew capacity crowds totaling more than 153,000 at venues around the city from the Bank of America Center at the University of Washington, Key Arena, where the NBA Sonics play and mammoth Quest Field, home of the NFL Seattle Seahawks. As expected, millions more watched on television and over the Internet where the events were webcast in twenty-four languages. Having lived in the Seattle area for a total of twenty-five years of my life I can tell you that this area is deeply entrenched in New Age thinking. In fact, we refer to Western Washington as the very center of New Age thought, so a visit by “his holiness” caused quite a stir there. (I am actually only about 20 miles from Quest Field as I write.)
Monday, November 28, 2011 | Post a Comment Is Postmodernism A Myth?
Sean McDowell
In the early 1990s interest in postmodernism exploded in the church. Books widely appeared as bestsellers and conferences featured seminars about doing ministry in a postmodern world. While people disagreed about exactly what was meant by "postmodernism"-and they still do!-there was considerable agreement that the world was leaving the modern era behind and wading into the unknown waters of the postmodern matrix.
In Postmodern Youth Ministry, for example, Tony Jones argues that postmodernity is the most important culture shift of the past 500 years, upending our theology, philosophy, epistemology (how we know things), and church practice. It is an "earthquake that has changed the landscape of academia and is currently rocking Western culture." (p. 11). Thus, to be relevant in ministry today, according to Jones and other postmodernists, we must shed our modern tendencies and embrace the postmodern shift.
Monday, November 28, 2011 | Post a Comment Putting Apostates In Their Place!
In the October 17, 2011, edition of The New York Times, Karl W. Giberson and Randall J. Stephens, two professors from Eastern Nazarene College, published an op-ed called "The Evangelical Rejection of Reason." It should have been titled "Why The Bible Isn't True." (Read Here)
If you're not aware of the attack on the validity and authority of the Bible that's underway inside allegedly "evangelical" denominations, and in particular in the classrooms of once-trustworthy seminaries and bible colleges, then wake yourself and get a load of what these two "evangelicals" are proclaiming. Before you think that this is a phenomena unique to The Church of the Nazarene, think again. This is actually a problem throughout the evangelical world as more and more leaders and teachers choose to accept the wisdom of men instead of that of God.

Comments: Hi Eric, I have been listening to an online church for some time now and here lately I have be questioning their beliefs. They claim to be Calvinisms. I would like you take on this. Is this man made or is it from God? God bless you and your family - Kelly
Hello Kelly, Thanks for writing!
I took a few moments and looked over some of the www.radiomissions.org website. They appear to be Christians indeed, teaching salvation by grace and holding to the Scriptures.
