  • Does Rome Teach a False Gospel, Let me count the ways! (1 of ?)

    I was recently asked to consider debating the topic, “That the Roman Catholic Church teaches a false gospel”. I do think that Rome teaches a false gospel, but I don’t think that for just one reason.  There are numerous grounds upon which we can conclude that Rome’s gospel is a false gospel. In 1301, Boniface…

  • Mike Murdock

    I recently listened to a presentation by Mike Murdock. I have never heard a more materialistic presentation than his, except perhaps from a multilevel marketing spokesman.

  • Interview with Great-Great-Granddaughter of Brigham Young

    I stumbled accross this interview of BY’s descendent who came out of Mormonism. It’s actually a remarkable testimony. Praise be to the Lord! It’s worth listening to, even if you have time only for the first few minutes (link). It actually exposes the same flaw that we see in other false gospels: 1. Undermine the…

  • A Different Apologetic Approach – ANON vs. Scientology

    As many of you may already be aware, a hacker group known as “ANON” (as in “Anonymous”) has recently declared war on Scientology. (open letter by video here) They are a very capable and elite group of hackers. Their stated goal is eradication of Scientology from the Internet. This not their first mission, and they…
