Spiritual Infection: Beware Critical Race Theory and Progressive (Social Justice) “Christianity”

If you are a regular reader of this blog you are probably pretty well informed about contemplative prayer, Alcoholics Anonymous, Mike Bickle of IHOP-KC, Bill Johnson of Bethel of Redding, The Send, the New Apostolic Reformation, and other threats to the Body of Christ.

Yet, there are many other “spiritual infections” that have not been covered by The Word Like Fire.  Here, then, is a link to a Christian Research Network article highlighting other dangers threatening the Body of Christ.

I am saving this article for future reference, and I hope you do the same. These issues will be coming your way. Click here to read….

Food for the Inner Man

As the outward man is not fit for work for any length of time unless he eats, so is with the inner man. What is the food for the inner man? Not prayer, but the Word of God-not the simple reading of the Word of God, so that it only passes through our minds, just as water runs through a pipe. No, we must consider what we read, ponder over it, and apply it to our hearts.”
― George Muller (The Autobiography of George Muller).

Does Alcoholics Anonymous really have “Christian” roots?

When it comes to A.A.’s “Christian” roots, God’s people have been—to use a technical term—snookered.

Scripture is clear. We were never meant to be part of an all-gods religion. It is not “legalism” to point out that the Lord will absolutely not be seen as one higher power among many. It is not “legalistic” to state that His people are absolutely to remain separate from non-Christian spirituality. (2 Corinthians 6:14-17, Galatians 1:8-9, Isaiah 42:8, 1 John 4:1-3, 2 John 9-11, Matthew 10:32-36, 1 John 2:23, John 14:6)

We should no more participate in A.A. because of alcohol addiction than we should attend the Mormon church to get help with family issues.

Bluntly stated, many Christians have ended up with more faith in the power of the twelve-step program than in Jesus Christ. We have disobeyed the Scriptures, and we are bearing the consequences.

If ye love me, keep my commandments. (John 14:15)
