Great Discernment Tools!
From Church To Emerging Church DVD Series 
by Sandy Simpson
The issue of the Emerging Church and it's introduction into many churches and mission organizations has reached a critical point.  Many do not undersand what is being leavened into churches by the EC leadership.  Many would be shocked to know their belief systems involve Universalism, New Age, defense of postmodernism, Interfaithism, and many other false doctrines.  In order to reach out to this generation the EC leadership is proposing a whole new "map" to deal with what they perceive is a lack of understanding on the part of the churches on how to communicate.  EC proponants believe the "scripture" for today is evolving and must change in order to reach postmoderns.

IDOLATRY 
IN THEIR HEARTS
Does having eternity in your heart mean that you know God and are His child? Could Gentile cultures understand the Gospel from the stars? Did God create man’s cultures? Has God always been in the process of redeeming cultures from the time of Babel by placing in them a true revelation of Himself? Is there the worship of YHWH in all cultures and religions through the names of “supreme beings”?  Have all cultures always had a way to make things right between them and God? These questions and many more are answered in this book that addresses the false teachings of The New Apostolic Reformation regarding missiological methods as being carried out by many agencies including the World Christian Gathering on Indigenous People, YWAM, and many Bible societies.

LESSONS IN FORGIVENESS
Through the years I have been presented with many opportunities to forgive. Sometimes the situation was so severe that it took me some time to forgive and start the process of healing for myself, and eventually for others. I learned that a Christian needs to forgive other people even if they have not repented of their sins. That can be really hard if we let it be hard. But if we give our burdens over to the Lord, He will carry them and that frees us up to treat other people with love, compassion, and be in the right frame of mind and heart to set them up for reconciliation with Jesus Christ. That does not mean we tolerate their sin. We simply forgive them for what they have done to us, whether perceived or real, and move on to looking for ways to redeem them. We can then present to them the “truth in love” even when we have to rebuke them.

The Second Coming Of Our Lord And Savior Jesus Christ by Ed Tarkowski

Inner City Christian Discernment Ministry by Rev. Robert & Tracy Liichow 
"Today the Church faces false teachers on every side. On any given day you can turn on Christian Television and view a wide variety of false teaching by false teachers. You can go into any Christian bookstore and purchase books published by alleged Christian Publishers filled with horrific blasphemies . . . all in the name of Christ … Our mission is to expose and refute the current trends in heresy, especially among the charismatic ranks of the Church. We will not only cite the errors rampant in these teachings, but also offer sound Biblical exposition as to why these teachings are not part of orthodox Christianity."

Proclaiming The Gospel by Michael P. Gendron 
"This site has been designed to lead Roman Catholics to saving faith in Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. As well, providing valuable information for those desiring to reach family and friends engulfed by deception. For 34 years Evangelist Michael P. Gendron was a devout Roman Catholic and a strong defender of the "one true church." In 1981, after hearing the Gospel for the first time at a 3 day Josh McDowell seminar Mike trusted Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior. His new excitement and hunger for the inspired word of God lead him to help organize the very first Little Rock Scripture Study in Dallas at St. Patrick's Catholic Church. The more he studied the Scriptures, however, the more he became aware how official Catholic teachings had added requirements for salvation to the finished work of Christ." 

Personal Freedom Outreach
"Personal Freedom Outreach is a non-profit, non-denominational group with three goals: to educate Christians about the dangers and heretical doctrines of religious cults, to use the Gospel of Jesus Christ to reach members of those cults and to warn Christians of unbiblical teachings within the church itself."

The desire of the publishers and the editorial staff is solely to serve the Lord Jesus Christ and His church, by allowing as many people to access the teachings of those who diligently search the scriptures, the like of which have contributed to this issue. Therefore Vanguard is free of charge, and will be sent to whoever wants to receive it."

The Midnight Herald
"The Midnight Herald is a non-denominational Christian newspaper heralding the soon return of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is mailed out bi-monthly to  readers in every state in the US and many foreign countries. We offer a free copy to anyone who requests it. Our contributing writers represent many different denominations and nationalities. What each has in common is an abundant love for the Lord and for His Word, and a desire to share His Love and His Word with others, contending earnestly for the faith which was once delivered to the saints. May each of us be like the Bereans who searched the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so. For if we continue in His Word, then are we truly His disciples and we shall know the truth and the truth shall make us free. We live in exciting and perilous times as foretold in the Bible for the Last-Days. More than ever, we need to discern the times in which we live, and to encourage and support one another."

A good apologetics site, especially in the area of audio and video clips online.

Christian news and views form a fundamentalist Baptist perspective.  We do not agree with all their views but their weekly e-mail newslwetter does provide an excellent source of current news, especially with regards to ecumenism.

ALERT! - Counterfeit Moriel Ministries Site In Australia
"Henry Sheppard and Moriel Australia Inc. are a counterfeit Moriel not representing Moriel Ministries internationally or the official Moriel Minitries Australia."  It is the opinion of DITC that the continued concerted attack on Jacob Prasch and other discernment ministries needs to stop.  DITC continues to stand behind the ministry of Jacob Prasch and Moriel Ministries. Many of us owe a debt of gratitude to Jacob for his uncompromised stand for the truth.

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.  For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;  And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 2 Tim 4:2-4  The time Paul is speaking of is NOW!
