 I have heard it said “balance is the key to life”. I agree with that statement, as I have found that any truth taken to the extreme (that ignores others aspects related to its subject) is unbalanced and can be harmful. This is also why Paul the Apostle said that he teaches “the whole counsel of God” (Acts 20:27), which involves a full-orbed presentation of truth.

Refuting the teaching of "Immortality on earth"

Immortality on Earth is the false teaching that a believer in Christ need not die physically but has the potential to overcome physical death through faith and live forever on the earth, enjoying everlasting life ON EARTH. The pioneer of this teaching is Pastor Kobus Van Rensburg Sr. Founder of the Spirit Word Church, South Africa (who died in 2013). This teaching is propagated by his son Pastor Kobus Van Rensburg Jr., his disciple Pastor Kirby de Lanerolle (WOW Life, Srilanka), Pastor Jesudian Silvester (Father’s House, Chennai) and others.

Anchor or Astray? First of all each and every disciple of Lord Jesus Christ should have a daily discipline and daily habit of devotionally studying the Word of God.  Habit and discipline like brushing the teeth.  Missing one day is also detrimental to health, so is the spiritual health.  It is devotional study and not academic study.  The fundamental belief that the Bible is THE word of God.  (Not that Bible contains the Word of God or Bible includes the Word of God).  Second, Bible is God...
