So Called Christian Churches that are not.

When you read the title of this blog you mite think of what many believe are cults, such as are listed by many cult watchers. The Mormon(Church of Later day Saints), Jehovah's Witness, Seventh Day Churches of God, any church that preaches another gospel other than that which is preached in the New Testament Church, or orthodox biblical belief.

Many other church fall near this, the Baptist church is one that puts being a member of their church before belief in Gods Son, which is not biblical.

I'm not going to be talking here about any of the above, but a much more serious problem for true Christianity. It is a movement to bring heresy into the church denominations. And I will identify at least three denominations that have moved now from Christianity to heresy's that remove them from a biblically definition of a Christian Church and part of the Body of Christ.

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America(ELCA) this summer has joined the Episcopal Church(EC), and The United Church of Christ(UCC) adopted these inclusive policies years ago, allowing openly practicing gays in to the ministry. With the move to open communion with the United Methodist Church(UMC), and the UMC active pacivity towards openly gay clergy coming out of the closet and not removing them from the ministry, which is a violation of their own "Book of Discipline" puts this denomination on the edge of becoming non-Christian. The ELCA, UCC, EC and UMC are no longer Christian organizations/groups. The ministers within these churches that promote the acceptance of Homosexuality have the spirit of the anti-Christ as we as Christians are warned against, in much of the writtings of the New Testament.

They are non-Christian religions. If you find yourself in one of the above, you should consider moving out of them and finding a new Christian Fellowship that looks to the Bible for doctrinal beliefs, as they do no longer see the Bible as their authority. If they did, they would not be moving in the direction they are.

I post this in hopes that many will come to repentance and return to Christ before it is to late. And to warn those looking for a relationship with God through his son, not to be taken in by their lies.

It is my belief that we have moved into the time when Christ said "many are called but few are chosen"(Paraphrased). There are many, like in many of the churches the apostles Paul, Peter, Jude and John wrote to that are falling to the same heresy's. whether it is immorality or legalism, both lead the same place, Hell! Whether it is those that promote immoral sexuality as acceptable or Judaism, they lead the same place.

God will hold those ministers responsible, who do not come out and preach against this heresy. We are told that the harvest is ready but many of them that are ready will be deceived and will not make it. They are considered as God's little ones, and those that allow or look the other way while they are hurt by false doctrine, we are told it would be better that they have a mill stone around their neck and thrown in the depth of the seas, then what waits for them on the day of judgment.

For those that say it doesn't affect us, by saying this it does, as you are not doing your part in correcting the Church. What is done in your name does affect you! You are called to be disciple, not pew setters!
