Divorced From Church: How Apostasy is Scattering the Sheep

Are you concerned about the spiritual condition of your church?

Perhaps you’ve gone from church to church and wonder is there a body , a pastor, a church who is dedicated to follow God’s truth in your community?

Maybe you are one of the “Refugee Remnant” who doesn’t fit anymore because you keep troubling those around you with minor details – like following the Bible? If so, then you need to know that you are not alone.

If you have traversed the land in search of a church that holds firmly to the Word of God (not just in lip service) and, if you’ve perhaps just given up and have resigned yourself to just stay at home rather than just be disappointed or disillusioned again and again, then this edition of Take A Stand! Radio may be particularly important for you.

Today, we’re going to play the soundtrack from Eric Barger's challenging DVD message “Divorced From Church: How Apostasy is Scattering the Sheep.” Tune in for an up front discussion of this growing end-time problem.

The Authority of the Bible

Biblical Creation specialist, Jay Seegert, returns as Eric's guest. The topic: The Authority of the Bible.
 
Seegert is a trained physicist, an author, lecturer, and above all a staunch defender of the faith. Eric and Jay discuss the disturbing modern trend inside Christianity that disregards biblical inerrancy in an effort to placate secular science and the secular-atheistic educational culture. More disturbing is the move in Christian education which accepts evolution as fact, choosing to question the Bible rather than Darwin. If you have children or grandchildren in either public or private Christian school today, this program is "must listening."

We play clips from popular evolutionist, Bill Nye ("The Science Guy") and a stunning clip aired on the popular "700 Club" television program which illustrates the root of the problem.
 
Get Seegert's fabulous book, "Let There Be Light" and the "Foundations in Creation" DVD series here. Contact Jay Seegert at www.cecwisc.com

The Suicide of American Christianity

In this edition of Take A Stand! Radio, Eric Barger discusses the condition of American Christianity with author and talk show host, Mike LeMay, from Q90 FM in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Also included is Eric's warning about bold and blatantly satainic heavy metal artists now extolling the Antichrist.

LeMay's stellar, hard-hitting book, The Suicide of American Christianity, is simply "must reading" for anyone concerned about the spiritual dilemma facing true Bible-believers in 2013.

During the interview LeMay explains how an encounter with ultra-left preacher, Jim Wallace, became the genesis of his daily program, book, and ministry. Mike then outlines the perils facing leaders in our churches today and discuss how a growing variety of soft shell, easy, partial gospels have replaced the authentic biblical version. Both Barger and LeMay are concerned about the plight and struggle that pastors face who are intent on presenting the Gospel message intact amongst a church culture conditioned to hear only "feel good" messages drenched in the half baked "love gospel."

Also discussed, the demise of Christian education, the gay agenda and the root cause behind it all - a lack of reverence for the Word of God. Reach Mike LeMay at www.standupforthetruth.com.

The Submerging Church part 4

Pastor and filmmaker, Joe Schimmel, joins Eric and continues discussing his newest DVD project "The Submerging Church." Bringing the series to a climax, Joe meticulously unfolds very troubling information concerning the "worship leader" of the Emergent Church - Bono of the wildly popular rock group, U2.

Schimmel details Bono's affinity with the demonic as portrayed by author C.S. Lewis as well as the ungodly lifestyle he and his band display. Besides becoming a sort of statesman/spokesman for various causes and being seen with Presidents, Prime Ministers, and even the Pope, Bono and U2 have gained vast popularity among Christians over the past 3 decades. Those persuaded by occasional mentions of "Jesus" or "God," need to be aware that universalism, ecumenism, and globalism form Bono's unholy trinity as he leads the misfit Emergent's deeper into spiritual jeopardy - and away from biblical truth.

The Submerging Church part 1

Eric interviews pastor and filmmaker, Joe Schimmel about his new documentary DVD set "The Submerging Church."

In this first segment, both men tell of their spiritual search before surrendering to Jesus Christ. Each also share unique perspectives on how millions inside Christian churches today have so easily accepted Emergent postmodernism and how it is submerging many congregations both in America and around the world. Joe and Eric also recount how they became aware of the growing Emergent Church and its troubling diversions into cultic and occultic philosophy.

Included are many definitions and problematic quotes from Emergent leaders which will help you to effectively communicate warnings concerning the many problems inherent in the movement.

Being that both Barger and Schimmel come from backgrounds deeply immersed in mystical beliefs and New Age, esoteric practices, both the personal experience and in-depth research they offer serve as bold warnings to those who've shelved the Bible to dabble instead with Emergent heresy.
Be sure to share this Take A Stand! Radio series with anyone lost in New Age thought or those traveling down the unbiblical Emergent road. Also find Joe Schimmel at www.goodfight.org.

Discernment or Deception: Which Will You Choose? part 3

In this final installment of "Discernment or Deception: Which Will You Choose?" Eric continues the live teaching by reminding us that biblical Christians will be aware of the days they live in - just like the leaders of the tribe of Issachar who understood the times and knew how to respond in the day they lived in (I Chron. 12:32).

Eric concludes by reminding us of Solomon's request before God. The King didn't ask for power over his foes, or long life, or for riches, but instead, he asked God to make him discerning. This powerful truth is sorely needed in the Church today and in the lives of each individual seeking to please the Lord.

Discernment or Deception: Which Will You Choose? part 2

In part two of the message, Eric continues to document and expose some of the many abberant theologies and near cult-like ideas that dot the Christian landscape and that are passede off as "evangelical" today. Covering the gauntlet from "Seeker Sensitive" to "Purpose Driven" the warnings come in rapid fire. A main focus in this weeks message is Jesus' words warning those who had walked with Him and seen the many proofs that He was indeed the Messiah. In Matthew 24 Jesus warned them and speak to us as well when He said, "Do not be deceived!"
