The Deadening Effects Of Apostasy

Tyndale By LaHaye/Jenkins

Liberal churchmen organized the Federal Council of Churches in the 1940's, but it became so ultraliberal and pro-Communist that laymen abandoned it in droves. It was dissolved, and the National Council of Churches of Christ in America became the spokesman for cultural Christianity. Although the structure was changed slightly, a close look at the people in charge revealed a game of musical chairs; many of the former leaders of the Federal Council directed the new National Council.

This religious organization has accelerated the churches departure from the Bible and sent it deeper into apostasy. Through neglecting and rejecting Bible teachings, this group has been bringing in practices and programs that border on blasphemy.

The modernism of the first part of the century was too radical for many people and even for some leaders, so a new group of theologians introduced neo-orthodoxy in the thirties. In this approach, leaders use some of the language of the fundamentalists but mean something quite different. This subterfuge has deceived many. Some in this apostate movement degenerate to the point that a number of its seminary professors launched the "God is dead" movement. They claim to be "Christian atheists," whatever that means (probably something akin to "believer in exile." ).

Relationships between socialistic politics and theological apostasy have been consistent. The early modernist rejected the basic teachings of Christianity, such as the virgin birth of Christ, His deity, His sinlessness, and many other essential doctrines. Since that left them no spiritual message for the people, they came up with the social gospel. This has been the one consistent chord of the apostate movement in America and has thrust its adherents into the forefront of the social revolution.

Today most liberal denominations are aligned with liberal social causes, while theological conservatives tend to align themselves with conservative government policy. In fact, today's vicious attack on moral absolutes has not been merely by secular humanists but has been advocated by liberal ministers of many mainline denominations and leaders of the National Council of Churches. Some of the religious leaders who are most aggressively pushing homosexuality are apostates on the doctrines of the Virgin Birth, the deity of Christ, and the inerrancy of Scripture. An apostate in theology will hardly adhere to the moral directives of the Scriptures!

O.K. so I did a google on the National Council of Churches as it's been a long time since I've checked up on them. They have now decided to have earth Sunday and something else that was not acceptable to me. I just took a quick look but once again I oppose any type of Ecumenicalism. But that is just me. and fwiw

hmmmmmm, this is something I was not aware of. It kind of reminds me of the movie I saw as a teenager about tribulation and there was a one world church but the true gospel readers really knew the anti-christ was behind it. I'm just saying that is what it reminds me of, "the movie"
