Lust for power is exercised through wrong doctrine - L. T. Jeyachandran

By -
"Wrong doctrine always gets people to come back to you, so that you hook them on to yourself and they start eating out of your hand. Or they start quoting you verbatim. They'll pick out verses here and there...some of them have totally gone overboard on to the wrong side...some of them are on the slippery slope. These doctrines that seem to be specialised doctrines are actually wrong doctrines which get people hooked on to you. You may have bigger attendance in those churches than in the churches that teach biblical doctrine" says Apologist and Bible Teacher L.T. Jeyachandran as he explores the relationship between Wrong Doctrine and the Lust for Power in this short video:

Refuting the teaching of "Immortality on earth"

By -

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. Here are a few links of the Immortality on earth teachings: Late 'Prophet' Kobus Van Rensburg Sr :  Immortal Everlasting Life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX7-4bI1mf4 Pastor Kirby De Lanerolle :   6 part Immortality series: Part 1:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNDiSx-nJbg Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9MSSJJut2o Part 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrALfXiFJgo Part 4: https://www.youtube.co

Fundamentals counters False Teaching

It is good to note that False Teaching is recognized as such and counter measures are being taken by younger leaders and newer churches.  This itself is a healthy sign.  However, it is essential to understand that there are fundamental principles that when ignored or violated, allows False Teaching to flourish and multiply.  I have put some fundamentals in an easy to way to understand, to build the immune system that withstands False Teaching onslaught. 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’s Word.  One who does not read it states to
