This is a rather interesting post. In my Bible believing church, a church where truth is preached, there are a handful of members who seem to get sucked into reading material that includes contemplative prayer (Beth Moore, et al), mysticism (stories about those who have experienced heaven and back) and "nationalism" (which is really Dominion Theology IMHO). Some of us just shake our heads and can't understand how it is that they get drawn to these theologies. These are people who clearly have a deep love for the Lord and they are fed "meat" by our pastor. Even if someone corrects their error in love, they still don't (refuse?) to see it. This is definitely a discernment issue. Not sure what to think about this concerning these "mature" believers.
In so many words, Jesus did say that in these last days, that some would believe whatever their ears heard. Satan knows he is losing the battle, so he is working extra hard to take as many with him as possible.
Additional communications to me may be e-mailed to spcrick@msn.com. Any negative e-mails will be deleted without response, however sincere questions will be answered. I seek edification and deeper knowledge of Christ and His truth not a destructive and meaningless religious chatter. May God's Spirit open all of our hearts to Him.
I am an ordained Baptist minister but more importantly I am a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. I was saved in 1975 watching Billy Graham on television after having lived a wicked and Christless life. I graduated with a three year degree from Trinity Bible College in Dunedin, Florida. I have three children, two grandsons, and one granddaughter. I not only see the obvious falling away of the present day church, but I humbly acknowledge that we all are in desperate need of a massive revival. I hope this blog ministers to you, and may Jesus Himself receive all the preeminence!

I hear you. It is most confusing and as I have said sometimes it isn't Scriptural ignorance but demonic deception.
