More Deceit and Heresy from the Antichrist Emergent Church Wolves

Beware of these emergent church beguilers who seek to cheat millions out of their eternity with Christ by robbing from their hearts the fear of the LORD! They do this by telling lies and promoting false doctrine regarding the “eternal damnation” promised to all who die in rebellion (Mark 3:29).

These are one of the newest breeds of slick talking snakes who have come to cast doubt upon, diminish from, minimize, break down, and undo the clear meaning of God’s Word as given to the English speaking world in the King James Bible. God was anything but silent on the nature and length of suffering to be experienced and endured by all rebels. By the way, if you don’t have a King James Bible, get one immediately and trash your new version.

These wolves in sheep’s clothing, and those who espouse their heretical teachers, are under divine judgment and being turned over to “strong delusion” so that they will ultimately be “damned.” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12; Revelation 22:18-19) One thing we can observe about the LORD is that if someone is “not valiant for the truth,” God takes it personally and will help them be “deceived” and ultimately “damned.” Check this out:

“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish (going to eternal hell); BECAUSE they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

Anti means against or in place of. With this in mind, it’s clear to see that these men are operating under “the spirit of antichrist” and that is clear in that they are changing or replacing the meaning of Christ’s teachings (1 John 4:1-6).

Brian McLaren is the premier emergent church wolf. His most popular book is titled A New Kind of Christianity. It took defiance and audacity to name his book this way. His title clearly reveals what he is trying to do – change things. McLaren has espoused the age old deceits of the arch-enemy of mankind and seeks to undo the timeless truths of a Holy God, the very Judge of our eternal souls. What he is promoting is nothing more than a scam to sell books folks. Don’t be so gullible and ignorant. There’s nothing new about Brian McLaren’s lies. They are age old, yet packaged to deceived unlearned souls, ushering them into the fires of eternal damnation.

God and His Word cannot be separated. His Word is eternally perfect and therefore unchanging.

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” Psalms 119:89

“My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.” Psalms 89:34

“For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.” Malachi 3:6

“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” Mark 13:31

After reading the above Bible Scriptures, there should be absolutely no doubt concerning the eternal perfection and the unchanging, non-negotiable nature of God’s Word.

What McLaren and his fellow emergent scammers are doing is nothing new because God’s Word tells us that “there is NO new thing under the sun” and “There hath NO temptation taken you but such as is common to man.” (Ecclesiastes 1:9; 1 Corinthians 10:13) Satan started this same doubt-casting manipulation in the Garden of Creation when interacting with the first man and woman (Genesis 3). He cast doubt on God’s Word by creating doubt in the mind of the first woman. The enemy of your soul has not changed. He’s still got the exact bag of tricks, doubt-casting being one of his more successful. Beware! Believe God at His Word! Stand on God’s Word and refuse to be moved! When God says something, it’s an unchanging, non-negotiable truth – “Let God be true and every man a liar.” (Romans 3:4)

Classic Perversion of Truth

You will notice that when people don’t like what the Bible plainly says (in our language – English/KJV), they then search for an alternative meaning. Their hearts are in rebellion and so they don’t mind making up a god in their own image and likeness instead of humbly conforming to the Word of the one true God (2 Timothy 3:15-17). They have a mere “form of godliness” but are not submitted to Christ and will therefore search and find others who will not take God at His Word. They then minimize, make null, and distort the clear meaning of God’s Word by searching the many commentaries of God-less theologians, many who are already in hell.

Doctrinal Example: Is hell and the lake of fire literal and eternal?

Well, what did Jesus teach about hell, the suffering of those who die in sin, and the lake of fire? We will look at what Christ taught in just a moment.

In the emergent church’s predictably incestuous “conspiracy” of wolves, they endorse one another’s lies because they are all telling the same lies, just as the false prophets of old did (Jeremiah 23). Is this not exactly what the wolves of Ezekiel’s day did? (Ezekiel 22:25-27)

In the emergent church’s predictably incestuous “conspiracy” of wolves, they endorse one anothers lies because they are all telling the same lies just as the false prophets of old did (Jeremiah 23). Is this not exactly what the wolves of Ezekiel’s day did? (Ezekiel 22:25-27)

In a book written by emergent church false teacher Sharon L. Baker and endorsed by mega emergent wolf Brian McLaren, concerning the lake of fire, Baker writes:

“Unfortunately, diverse interpretations of ‘the lake of fire’ make it more difficult for us to propose its precise meaning. We can’t know for certain what it is or what reality it metaphorically refers to. Based upon the historical and cultural context, however, we can speculate. Revelation 20:10 refers to it as a ‘lake of fire and brimstone.’ Another translation from the Greek for the word ‘brimstone’ is the word ‘sulfur.’ (NRSV) From historical studies, we know that in those days, the sulfur fire burned hotter than any other fire, so hot that it completely disintegrated any substance that came close to it.” Sharon L. Baker, Razing Hell, p. 142

First, Baker says we just can’t possibly understand God’s Word. In other words, God gave us a message He is not able to help us understand. That’s clearly the unbelief of an apostate, God-less heart. So, she a type of a neo-agnostic or better yet, Sharon L. Baker is Christ-defying, a flat out unbeliever. Sharon L. Baker is telling us here in her book – that she wrote so that people could understand her heresies – the God Almighty gave mankind mountains of verses in His Word/message to us about hell and the lake of fire, but we just can’t understand them and He didn’t intend us to understand them. Yet, this wolf, Sharon L. Baker, fully expects that those who read her book can understand her false teaching. How convenient! She fully believes that “we can speculate” as to the meaning of God’s Word on this subject of the lake of fire.

Baker then does abuses Daniel 3 to attempt to justify her regurgitated annihilation heresy. This female agent of Satan continues with this diabolical assumption:

“When theologians talk about hell as annihilation, they mean that those thrown into the lake’s sulfur fire suffer complete destruction of annihilation. They do not suffer eternal torment in hell but cease to exist completely. So the lake-of-fire imagery suggests a fire that completely consumes whatever is thrown into it rather than eternal torment…” Sharon L. Baker, Razing Hell, p. 142

Baker reduces God’s Word to mere imagery while indignantly choosing to ignore the obvious eternal suffering Jesus taught (Mark 9:43-49).

Also, did you notice how Sharon L. Baker here assumes that all theologians are ungodly false teachers like her? Did you see how she, like her father Satan, deceptively slipped that assumption in her statement so as to deceive the unlearned? Notice she never speaks of God’s Word as being the self-interpretive, divinely-inspired masterpiece that it is, but rather she relies on sinful so-called theologians. That’s pure rebellion, disdain for the Almighty and brazen, damnable unbelief!

“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily (deceptively; secretly) shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:1-3

In utter contradiction to God’s clear revelation, every single cult does away with the eternal, conscious nature of divine retribution upon the wicked. This is a clear, earmark doctrine of all antichrist cults. You see, Satan wants us to believe that there is going to be no eternal consequence for dying in rebellion to our Maker, the very Judge of our eternal soul.

This is classic annihilation teaching, a doctrine of devils espoused by every cult known to mankind.

Are Hell and the Lake of Fire Eternal or Temporal?

“And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, ⁸In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: ⁹Who shall be punished with EVERLASTING destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; ¹⁰When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.” 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10

What did Jesus teach about eternal punishment?

“And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that NEVER shall be quenched: 44 Where their worm (consciousness) dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that NEVER shall be quenched: 46 Where their worm (conscious feelings) dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: 48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 49 For every one shall be salted with fire (preserved in suffering), and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.” Mark 9:43-49

There will be salt in hell. Notice how these cultists are amateurishly obvious in their selective, seductive theology as they seek to do away with the plainly stated divine retribution that is coming on all wicked souls. Is salt not an obvious preservative? Well, is Jesus not confirming the rest of what He is saying here with the obvious truth that all sacrifices in hell will be salted to preserve them from being annihilated so they can be tormented consciously as a just reward for rejecting the very precious blood of Jesus? They also ignore the simple idiom Jesus uses here in saying that “their worm dieth NOT.” This refers to their consciousness which also just plain makes sense.

This passage begs the question of Why O Why would the Son of God give such a severe warning if the penalty for violating it weren’t so severe and eternal? That is, if those who die without Christ are just going to be annihilated? After all, Jesus tells us here that it would be better, that is more profitable, to literally cut off out hand, to cut off our foot, and to even pluck out our eye if these members cause us to violate the holiness of God.

“ETERNAL judgment” is one of the six foundational truths of Christ according to Hebrews 6:2. We see the LORD Jesus using the term “ETERNAL damnation” as recorded in Mark 3:29.

According to Revelation 20, at the Great White Throne Judgment of the wicked, death and hell shall be cast into the lake of fire.

“And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. ¹²And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. ¹³And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. ¹⁴And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. ¹⁵And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:10-15

In Revelation 20:10 here, the Bible assures that those tormented in hell, “shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”

Of all who take the mark of the beast, sealing their eternal doom with all other unrepentant souls, the Bible states:

“The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: ¹¹And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. ¹²Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. ¹³And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.” Revelation 14:10-13

The Bible never hints that hell and the lake of fire (which it will be cast into) are temporary. Throughout Scripture they are revealed to be eternal in their duration.

Like her fellow wolves across the globe, Sharon L. Baker simply explains away the complete and crystal clear meaning from God’s Word concerning the conscience, everlasting torment that awaits all who leave this earth outside of a born again, abiding relationship with the one Redeemer, Jesus Christ. She is taking away from God’s Word which, by itself, brings the plagues of Revelation; including the lake of fire (Revelation 20:11-15). This Baker does as she is led by her father the devil who did the same thing to the first man and woman. This Satan did by adding one 3-letter word to the Word of God. God told the man that if he sinned, “Thou shalt surely die.” (Genesis 2:17) Satan then told the woman “And the serpent said unto the woman, “Ye shall not surely die.” (Genesis 3:4) In other words, the enemy of our souls told the woman that she would not suffer consequences for sinning against God. Yet, the LORD kept His Word and forced the man and woman out of His presence and pronounced many curses on them. Satan still seeks to diminish the severity of the divine warning of coming judgment. Look at this sample of what the Bible says lies just ahead for all who die outside of Christ – in sin:

In light of the fact that Christ-denying rebels seek to soften the blow and thereby lower the defense against sin, let’s look at a menu of the eternal consequences for dying in sin:

A place of complete consciousness (all feelings)………..…Luke 16:25
Torment with fire and brimstone……………………….……Rev. 14:10
Weeping and gnashing of teeth…………………….………..Matt. 8:12
A place of eternal remorse (devastating regret)……….……Luke 16:25
A place of torments………………………………………….Luke 16:23
No rest day or night forever (eternal misery)……….……….Rev. 14:11
A furnace of fire with wailing………………….………..….Matt. 13:42
A place of everlasting burnings………………..…………..Isaiah 33:14
A lake (ocean) of fire…………………………….………….Rev. 20:15
Unquenchable fire (ferocious flames)……………….………Mark 9:45
Outer darkness (blinding loneliness)……………………….Matt. 22:13
No 2^nd chance to escape (utter hopelessness)…….…..……..Luke 16:26
A place of sorrows (seething remorse and despair)…………….Ps. 18:5
A place of everlasting destruction………………………….2 Thess. 1:9

Questions answered concerning where the lost soul goes at the moment of death:

Many are in hell right now. Judgment begins at the moment one dies (Hebrews 9:27) The unregenerate dead go to the rightful place they deserve as divinely just judgment is exacted upon them at the instant they die (Luke 16:19-31). Read these passages closely: Luke 16:19-31; 2 Corinthians 5:6-8; Philippians 1:20-23; Revelation 22:11. At the Great White Throne judgment, God will dredge up from hell all who died in sin and then cast them into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:11-15).

A just God must have a penalty for sin. A loving God paid the ultimate price for that sin.

We owe a debt we cannot pay – He paid a debt He did not owe.

“That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 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. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:15-17

Rich in Faith [podcast]

“Them that Love Him”

——WHAT one temporarily has in this fleeting world or doesn’t have, has NOTHING to do with that person’s spiritual state. This is what Jesus taught: “Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” (Luke 12:15) In fact James says:

“HEARKEN, MY BELOVED BRETHREN, HATH NOT GOD CHOSEN THE POOR OF THIS WORLD RICH IN FAITH, AND HEIRS OF THE KINGDOM WHICH HE HATH PROMISED TO THEM THAT LOVE HIM?” JAMES 2:5

James says God chooses those for His eternal kingdom “that love him,” namely “the poor of this world.” We are justified by “faith” and not by what we do or do not temporarily possess in this fleeting life.

IF in your mind you rate people by what they have or don’t have in this fleeting sinful world, you are deeply deceived and in utter need of repentance and the washing of water by the Word of God. You are carnally minded (Romans 8:5-6).

Regrettably, it seems that most people professing to be following Christ, the One who gave all, are not the least bit concerned if their brother or sister has a need. God have mercy upon us and grant us repentance in Jesus’ Name! Are these people truly saved?

“Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. 17 But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? 18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. 19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.” 1 John 3:16-19

“If we are in Jesus we have the unsearchable riches of Christ (Ephesians 3:8). Unfathomable (in our small minds), infinite wealth and spiritual blessings! Endless mercy, grace, and forgiveness. That is inexhaustible! Why do we need any worldly riches that will rot and corrupt our hearts!? Lay up in your hearts God’s riches! Which are eternal!” Karen Cochran

Some have tens of thousands in the bank and could care less to find out if a sister or brother has a need. The Bible assures us that they are not saved. If you have even a little to give and don’t, it’s because you simply have chosen not to know and abide in Christ.

“What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.” James 2:14-17

The financial institutions and their salesmen are vying for your money. They want your money to invest so that you and they earn a financial gain in this life. Christians in need, orphans, and Gospel workers are also available to invest in. To help them is to invest in the LORD’s kingdom and be repaid dividends for eternity. Oh, and your heart will follow where you choose to place your money. Jesus says “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” (Matthew 6:19-21)

PRAYER: Holy Father, please break me and make me Your authentic follower. Jesus I love You. Let me walk as You walked, live as You lived, love as You love. Bless this life You gave to be truly crucified with You – dead, buried, and raised up – a vessel of honor for Your glory! In Jesus’ name.

Safety in Wise Counsel [podcast]

“Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.” Proverbs 20:18

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.” Psalms 37:23

“So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” Psalms 90:12

“Safety” in wise counsel from God’s wisdom, Word, and including at times with the help of His beloved saints.

“Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.” Proverbs 11:14

“The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.” Proverbs 21:31

“For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.” Proverbs 24:6

Caprice means a sudden and unaccountable change of mood or behavior.

“Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. 14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. 15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.” James 3:13-18

Judgment to Come Necessitates the Crucified Life [podcast]

“But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9:27 In light of “eternal judgment” (Hebrews 6:2), the apostle speaks here of his preparation for it. Paul knew that eternal damnation awaited him if he dared not keep under his body, to crucify the deeds of the body to “bring it into subjection” by the daily crucified life. Keeping under our bodies speaks of a continual essential. Keeping under means subduing the old man by crucifying it daily. “For […]

“Let Brotherly Love Continue” [podcast]

“Let Brotherly Love Continue.” Hebrews 13:1

“And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.” Ephesians 5:2

1 John 4

God Is Love

“7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
19 We love him, because he first loved us.
20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.”

1 Corinthians 13

“Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. 4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. 8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.”

The Cardinal Characteristic of Knowing God [podcast]

The word “love” appears 311 times in God’s Word. It’s one thing to know the Bible. It’s another thing to know the God of the Bible. “Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.” Deuteronomy 13:4 This is why He created you – to know Him. “And this is life eternal (the whole purpose for it), that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17:3 The disciple has nothing more important […]
