| apostate definition webster: Apostasy & Divorce: Forty Years in the Wilderness of Divorce and Remarriage Stephen M. Weaver, Catherine C. Weaver, 2019-06-27 Apostasy is defined as a falling away from, or a deliberate abandonment of, what had been established scriptural principles and doctrine. This is exactly where the broader Church is today on the doctrine of divorce and remarriage. Written from an Evangelical Protestant perspective we examine this apostasy and its ramifications to the broader Church, society and individuals. The authors' own 40 year journey vividly underscore the theme. Christians from the first 1900 years of the Church would not recognize today's doctrine as Christian. Jesus' exact teachings are examined in depth as are those of Paul. Jesus' definition of the divorced and remarried as adulterers is paramount to the entire discussion. Adultery is one listed reason for exclusion from the kingdom. The differences between legalism and grace are examined and explained. The outcomes to individuals, and society, are listed and backed with scripture, history, and facts; demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt. |
| apostate definition webster: Apostasy! Jeff Kluttz, 2012-01-06 Apostasy is creeping into the church from televisions, books and star-personality tours of rich and blasphemous self-proclaimed prophets of God.; many of whom are the most famous pastors and teachers in the U.S. These counterfeit shepherds teach that faith is a material substance more powerful than God, accessible to all men, and capable of creating anything man's heart can desire by the mere utterance of faith-filled-words. This doctrine has leached into all areas of the theological systems of what are known as Word of Faith churches. Virtually every major area of systematic theology in this movement has been taken captive by the repercussions of this primordial error. In this heresy, God is limited. Man is unlimited. Satan fills a necessary role in atonement for sin. Health, wealth, power and all means of temptation are heralded as virtues of the faith while millions empty their bank accounts for the promise of such ambition. Preying on the poor and desperate, this movement is systematically fulfilling biblical prophesies concerning a latter-day apostasy within Christendom. |

| apostate definition webster: Defaming the Freedom of Religion or Belief BM van Schaik, 2025-05-29 This book explores the intricate terrain of international religious freedom discourse. It examines the evolution and controversies surrounding the formulation and interpretation of the freedom of religion or belief as a universal right within the United Nations. From legal and philosophical standpoints to the political dimensions of the subject, the book navigates through the complex terrain, shedding light on challenges to the universality and non-discriminatory implementation of this fundamental freedom. Beyond theoretical and legal debates, the study reveals how actors within the United Nations have 'defamed ' the freedom of religion or belief, reshaping its interpretation away from its original 1948 objectives. The book explores the dynamic interplay of postmodern views, legal intricacies, and political perspectives, contributing to a potential diminishment of the normative force of related legal provisions. It addresses critical topics including religious tolerance, blasphemy, defamation of religion, and apostasy, offering a comprehensive understanding of the evolving landscape of international human rights discourse. This is an indispensable resource for scholars, policymakers, and anyone seeking a profound insight into the challenges and transformations shaping the global pursuit of religious freedom. |
| apostate definition webster: Spiritual Warfare David Cassady, 2008-07 I remember when I was in the Marine Corps, and just prior to going to Viet Nam, I was given training to prepare me for what was ahead. I was taught who the enemy was and about his weapons and tactics. I was also taught the weapons and tactics I would employ against that enemy. As Christian soldiers we too must learn who our enemy is and what weapons we are to use against him. The less we know about our enemy the better he likes it. A lack of knowledge concerning our enemy places him at a tremendous advantage, as if being invisible was not enough. Warfare provides a profile of the real enemy of mankind, his weapons and tactics as well as the weapons we are to use against that enemy. Warfare is an attempt to bring light and truth into a world of darkness and deception. It is realized that many will be exposed to areas of satanic demonic deception they were heretofore ignorant of. Although it is not my intent to cover all aspects of the subject of demonology, I do want to cover a wide range of topics. I also want to stress that when dealing with this subject many tend to operate at one of two extremes. They take this whole thing with a casual, somewhat unconcerned attitude or they get into bondage over thinking there is a demon under every rock. My intent is to bring as much balance to this subject as I can. May the God of all Grace and Mercy give you understanding. |

| apostate definition webster: Apostate! No More Bazoodee: A Grenadian Quest to Think Outside the Box Seon M. Lewis, 2015-10-13 Most (if not all) Grenadians have grown up hearing stories of la diablesse, lagahou and sookooyant. But have you ever wondered about the origin of these stories? This book just doesn't re-tell these stories. It traces their origins, and looks at them as being influential in helping shape our self-identity and our interpersonal relationship. In fact, this book examines and critiques aspects of the Grenadian sociocultural and sociopolitical culture that seek, in many ways, to minimize and suppress the individual's search for self-identity especially as he or she tries to pursue knowledge that appears to be outside the socially accepted. In doing so, this book follows the author's journey as he analyzes old ideas and engaged with new ones. Also central to this book is that it seeks to help the individual develop his or her moral and ethical awareness. |

| apostate definition webster: Apostacy: the Deceived Generation Susan Seymour, 2008 “It’s time to return to biblical roots in reaching out to the younger generations,” says author Susan Seymour. She is passionate about the Word of God and America’s youth. However, years of teaching elementary, middle, and high school students and participating in church ministry programs to the same age groups have left her convinced that our nation is in dire need of sincere revival. Apostasy is both a call to awareness and an appeal for the church to simplify, returning to an emphasis on the simple foundations of our faith instead of a reliance on new and improved programs. Her message will encourage parents and leaders to take charge and contend for a generation that has been disillusioned by the ways of the world. |
| apostate definition webster: Webster's Unabridged Dictionary (2nd 100 Pages) Noah Webster, 2020-03-16 Noah Webster's Webster's Unabridged Dictionary (2nd 100 Pages) stands as a monumental achievement in the realm of lexicography, striving to define the burgeoning American identity in the early 19th century. This segment of the dictionary not only serves as a comprehensive collection of words and their meanings but also imbues American English with a sense of individuality, moving away from British influences. Through precise definitions, etymologies, and innovative spelling conventions, Webster's work manifests a literary style that intertwines clarity and scholarly rigor, reflecting the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and education. Noah Webster (1758-1843) was a foundational figure in American education and linguistics; his passion for language was fueled by his desire to unify the fledgling nation through a distinctive American language. His experience as a teacher and his dedication to fostering an informed citizenry inspired him to produce a dictionary that transcended mere definition, aiming to shape American culture and thought. Webster'Äôs advocacy for standardization in language emerged in an era where the nation was grappling with its identity, reflecting his vision of language as a tool for unity. This book is highly recommended for linguists, historians, and anyone interested in the evolution of American English. It serves not only as a reference work but also as a lens through which to explore the social and political climate of early America. Webster's insights into the language of a young nation provide invaluable context for understanding contemporary American English and its roots. |

| apostate definition webster: Thoughts and Gleanings Ralph Beall, 2013-02-25 In this volume are the Bible answers to many of the questions some may have about some of the teachings in the Scriptures. What is Gods desire and purpose in creation? What is the gift of God the Father? Of God the Son? Of God the Holy Spirit? What is the relationship of God, Satan, and man to one another? Who is God the Holy Spirit, and what is his work? Was Satan created? Will mans soul/spirit exist forevermore? What is the origin, the purpose, and the destiny of man? What is sin? What is death, physical and spiritual? Who is the source of all lies and all evil, wickedness, and sin? Who is the source of all truth, logic, reason, and all that is good, righteous, and wise? What is the cause of all sorrow, suffering, pain, sickness, and death? Whose sins are washed away? Can one be pleasing to God and be a soldier, a policeman? Does God desire/approve of any person enslaving another? Is man under any law from God today? Is man shaped by nurture or nature? What must one do to be saved, have his sins forgiven, and live forevermore in heaven with the godhead three? What is the power of God that can save the soul to live forevermore in heaven? What are the things which must shortly come to pass for the time is at hand and revealed by signs to the Apostle John by Jesus Christ? (Revelation 1:13) |

| apostate definition webster: Revelations of the Divine Plan of the Ages Basil Hewitt, 2007-12 Chalk is a fictional story about a young man born in the coalmine country of rural Kentucky. He was born in 1863 to an English father and Cherokee Indian mother. Hard time and hard work filled his younger years. When his parents were both gone he followed a life of managing horses, doing blacksmith work and eventually found a good job on a Mississippi river boat. His experience led him to become a trail boss on a Texas bound wagon train. In Texas he found his life's calling, got married and became a local peace officer. At the same time he started ranching. His love and skills with horses and his honest life style he practiced found favor with the Military and he became a horse supplier for the Calvary. He was later drafted into military duty and rose rapidly in rank mustering out as a decorated Colonel. As an author I used information to write the story that was handed down by my father and my wife's family. My family had Cherokee roots and the stories my grandmother told me were very real. She was born in 1847, endured the Civil war aftermath and saw the First World War take the lives of many fine young men. My father and his brothers were in Pershing's Army and the stories they brought home were never forgotten. These times were difficult for everyone and need to be remembered. The lessons they contain are the real essence of how our country was able to grow to a major work power and leader in the cause for peace. As a first time author this work is an attempt to remind everyone that our nation has learned a lot but still has a lot more to learn. A great nation will always see another opportunity to improve. This is the American tradition. |

| apostate definition webster: Religion, Secular Beliefs and Human Rights Natan Lerner, 2012-08-01 Religion, and beliefs related to religion, are a central factor in international life and politics. International law, and human rights law in particular, have to take into consideration the religious dimension, and have done it to some extent. A body of positive law has already been developed for the protection of freedom of religion, and from religion, by the United Nations and regional and specialized organizations. The first edition of this book appeared six years ago, in coincidence with the 25th anniversary of the 1981 United Nations Declaration on the Elimination of All Forms of Intolerance and Discrimination Based on Religion of Belief. It discussed the legal meaning of religion and belief, the United Nations work in this respect, religious minorities, relevant regional and special arrangements, the issue of proselytism, religion and terrorism, religious symbols, international criminal law, and some particular cases such as the state and religious communities in Israel, and this country’s agreement with the Holy See. This second edition of the book updates the information on relevant developments that took place in the time elapsed. and incorporates several new chapters on important issues related to religious freedoms. Such are the chapters on freedom from religion, religion and freedom of association, religion and freedom of expression (including the controversy with respect of defamation of religions), and group rights and legal pluralism. The order of the chapters has been rearranged. It is hoped that law and political science schools, human rights associations and scholars, as well as governments and bodies active in the area of religious freedoms, will find interest in this second, revised and considerably enlarged, edition. |
| apostate definition webster: Project Apostasy Jesse Acuff, 2008-08-29 Project Apostasy: The Development and Propagation of the Trinitarian Doctrine is Satan's story. Spurred by his inordinate beauty and consumate pride, he rebelled against his Creator. Undeterred by his categorical defeat, he launched the most blasphemous doctrine to ever invade the Christian Church. Through his evil minions, the Babylonian king Nimrod and his mother-wife Semiramis, Satan developed the Trinitarian Doctrine which was spread worldwide by the Babylonian Mysteries, taken up by the Romish Church, who has been its most ardent disseminator since the 4th century AD. Through the ages this doctrine has become the darling of orthodox Christianity and is taught as fact when there is no evidence of it in the Scriptures. Nevertheless, it has affected millions by keeping them in abject spiritual darkness. A.W. Tozer, in his book The Knowledge of the Holy, on page 6, observes, The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him. He further states, Wrong ideas about God are not only the fountain from which the polluted waters of idolatry flow; they are themselves idolatrous. Project Apostasy and the Holy Trinity challenges the reader to search out the truth behind the development of the Trinitarian Doctrine. It behooves us to emulate the Bereans who searched the Scriptures daily seeking the truth. It is time that we returned to the Gospel the Apostles first delivered. Jesus quoted the Shema as his creed. Hear O Israel, the Lord our God is one God. And in John 17: 3 he declared His Father as the only true God. This is pure monotheism as opposed to the orthodox Trinitarian concept of three-in-one. We should, rather, take up the creed of Jesus and the Apostles and cease from our idolatrous worship of a triune God, a concept never taught in the pages of the Bible. |
