Spot the Wolf: Part 5
This is the fifth installment in the on-going series authored by Pastor Anton Bosch pertaining to the exercise of discernment regarding Christian leaders. _________________________ As we have seen in the preceding articles, many of the characteristics of wolves who present themselves as shepherds are manifest in their relationship with the flock in their care.

“Destroy All Humans”
“Destroy All Humans” is the name of one of rock star Bono’s for-profit business endeavors, a video game played from the perspective of space aliens with the goal to “eradicate feeble humans.” This might be funny if it weren’t for Bono’s other endeavors on the global scene. Bono is a Managing Director and Co-Founder of […]

Try the Books

How harmless books must have been in 1844 compared to the open heresies of our postmodern era! Yet, he implores believers to guard themselves, to “try […]
Trying the Spirits of Vain Confidence & Irreverence
Yesterday’s post contained excerpts from “Trying the Spirits,” a sermon delivered by J.C. Philpot in 1844. Today’s post extrapolates two points from this sermon which help people to discern truth from error. Philpot introduces the second part of his sermon with this statement: II.—But let us now look at some marks of that spirit which […]
