Many Shall Come in My Name

Jan Markell and Eric Barger host former New Ager Warren Smith for the hour. This movement is now called the “new spirituality” and you would be surprised how even evangelical leaders fit into it. The chief proponent of it is Oprah Winfrey who is now utilizing Rob Bell to further this Satanic agenda. Why would Rick Warren tap into three men with involvement in this “new spirituality” to be a part of a program at Saddleback Church? Hear from one who attended this outrageous seminar. We carry Smith’s excellent book, False Christ Coming: What New Age Leaders Really Have in Store for America, the Church, and the World. Find it here. We use the mobile app found at www.oneplace.com.

The Submerging Church part 2

Eric interviews pastor and filmmaker, Joe Schimmel, in a continuing discussion of Joe's newest DVD project "The Submerging Church."

In this segment, Schimmel and Barger detail more of the problems associated with the Emergent philosophy in the light of the familiar apologetics standard: Galatians 1:8-9. Joe and Eric also point out the bottom line of Emergent error which is that it leads people into a godless eternity.

Here Schimmel also outlines how one man profoundly effected Bill Hybels (Seeker Movement), Rick Warren (Purpose Driven Movement), and Brian McLaren (Emergent Movement) moving them - and thousands of their followers - in one troubling direction. That man was New Age mystic and management guru, the late Peter Drucker.

Don't miss any part of this series by two of Christendom's leading voices warning the Church about postmodernism and 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.

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!"
