WEB LINKS are our favorite pages. We provide them as an aid to further

contain good apologetics. Go here for apologetics
sites in languages other than English. Web site links are added in chronological

The
Contenders by Bob Hunter (Original site down!)
"The purpose of this Web page is to
provide information from a Christian perspective on aberrant Christian
teachings such as the "Toronto Blessing - Pensacola" and on the cults."
An excellent collection of articles. Also check back from time to
time on his "Days
Of Deception" page for the latest in wackiness from the Third Wave.

Hinn Page

that Monet dabbled with paints."
The
Second Coming Of Our Lord And Savior Jesus Christ by Ed Tarkowski

Apostasy announced in the Scriptures has come forcefully upon the Church.
For the sake of global unity, doctrine is being set aside, and denominational
walls continue to fall at a rapid rate." An excellent resource of background
information on "Latter Rain", "Dominion" and "Manifest Sons Of God" doctrines.

Newsletter are available on this site as well as other perspectives.
Discernment
Ministries International by Rev. Robert & Tracy Liicho (Original
site down!)
"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."

Vanguard
Magazine (Original site down)
"VANGUARD is a publication which aims
both to furnish God's people with sound bible teaching and to warn against
false teachings and those who propagate them. 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 (Original site down)
"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."

research purposes.
The
Belfast Berean (Original site down)
A good apologetics site, especially in
the area of audio and video clips online.
The
Calvary Contender
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.

Apostasy
Watch by Steve Lumbley
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! We are in a time of
unprecedented apostasy in the church. The purpose of this website is to
preach the word, reprove, rebuke, and exhort. We are here to warn the elect.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying!

Donations
Accepted!
First of all, the best way you can support this web site is to
be a Berean. Search the Scriptures daily and stand firm in your faith against
the apostasy of the last days. It would give me great joy if more Christians
would learn to discern! Secondly, please continue to uphold this
ministry in prayer. The expository nature of this site has brought down
the wrath of the enemy countless times. Thirdly, there are many
costs involved in running this site as well as providing research and materials
so that you will be armed with the truth. I send out three separate newsletters
and provide other apologetics materials free of charge to Christian leaders
in this area of the world. I am a full time missionary supported by sending
churches in the U.S. For some years I did not ask for support but some
people have sent me support and asked how they can help, so I want to provide
the following information. Please don't neglect other Christian ministries
that uphold the truth as God lays them on your heart. There are many.
My contact information if you wish to send in monetary support is:
Deception In The Church
P.O. Box 1759
