Dear Evangelical Christian

---

I am about to make radical statements, so please read to the end. 

From studying the scriptures and the writings of our early church fathers, I believe the modern-day evangelical church has been infiltrated, subverted, and perverted by Satanic deception.  

I was deceived and deceiving others because I accepted many deceptions that have become mainstream theology taught in our seminaries and Bible colleges, on TV and in the pulpits in North America. I heard big-name preachers pontificate these deceptions and I accept it as gospel. 

Please understand what I am saying.  I am targeting the deceptions, not the people who are deceived. 

The deceiver is deceiving. As Derek Prince says, no one is more deceptive than someone who is deceived.  I was deceived and perhaps you are as well. 

The religious leaders in Jesus' day were deceived even though many had the Old Testament memorized. They were zealous for God, but their zeal was not based on knowledge (Rom 10:2-4). They worshipped God in vain because they rejected the truth in favour of the traditions of men (Mark 7:7-13). 

Christianity is true, but what happens if many of the core teachings that you believe about Christianity are false?  What if  Satan has twisted the historical teachings regarding baptism, communion, atonement, salvation, faith, and other teachings?

Below are a few quotes from our early church fathers that reveal major discrepancies between what the early church taught and what is taught today. 

 Irenaeus (c. 180, E/W), 1.346[1] -Gnostics Approach to Baptism  

We have come to refute them (Gnostics), and we will show in its proper place that this class of men has been instigated by Satan to a denial of that baptism which is regeneration to God. Thus, they have renounced the whole faith…For the baptism instituted by the visible Jesus was for the remission of sins.  

Clement of Alexandria (c. 195 E), 2.215[1]  - Sonship, Washed & Saved  

Being baptized, we are illuminated. Illuminated, we become sons… This work is variously called grace, illumination, perfection and washing. Washing, by which we cleanse away our sin. Grace, by which the penalties accruing to transgressions are remitted. Illumination, by which that holy light of salvation is beheld, that is by which we see God clearly.  

Justin Martyr (c 160, E) 1. 183[1] - Remission of Sin, Born Again, Repentance  

At our birth we were born without our own knowledge or choice, but by our parents coming together… In order that we may not remain the children of necessity and of ignorance, but may become the children of choice and knowledge, and may obtain in the water the remission of sins formerly committed, there is pronounced over him who chooses to be born again, and has repented of his sins, the name of God the Father, the Lord of the universe…. And in the name of Jesus Christ… and in the name of the Holy Spirit.  

These men were heroes of the faith, yet today they would be called heretics because they taught that remission of sins and being born again  happen in baptism. The sinner's prayer, or silly statement like asking Jesus into your heart was not Christian doctrine, it was the teaching of the Gnostics evidenced below: 

 
Irenaeus (c. 180, E/W), 1.346 [1] 

But there are some of them (the Gnostics) who assert that it is unnecessary to bring persons to the water…. These claim that the knowledge of the unspeakable Greatness is itself perfect redemption.   

The same heresy is alive and well today. The heresy is that you were saved by knowledge before baptism, making baptism unnecessary for salvation, it is only an outward confession of an inward reality. 

These quotes and numerous others play a supporting role in my challenge to these deceptions.  I am asking you to read my articles, and then judge for yourself.  If you are laity, may I suggest you start with Article 4 on Biblical Faith or Article 5 on Baptism? If you have a degree from a Seminary or Bible College, may I suggest Article 2, The Finished Work of the Cross Heresy.  

The eleven articles below target primary Christian heresies: 

1. Did Jesus Become Sin? The Atonement Heresy
2. It is Finished, The Finished Work of the Cross Heresy 
3. The Enlightened Are Not Christians Heresy 
4. Abraham Believed God, The Gnostic Faith Heresy 
5. Baptism, An Outward Confession of and Inward Reality Heresy 
6. Calvin's False Gospel, The T.U.L.I.P.  Heresy 
7. Saved Through Fire, The Once-Saved-Always-Saved Heresy 
8. The Slain in the Spirit & Cessation Heresy
9. The Tithe is for Christians Heresy
10. The Thou Shall Not Drink Heresy
11. The Hebrew Roots Heresy

I am asking you to let the truth get in the way of the religious nonsense you have been taught.

It is time to unlearn the lies.
