| satan's counterfeit christianity: Satan's Counterfeit Healing Lawrence E. Burkholder, 2019-09-30 “The Christian church worldwide has been taken prisoner by Satan’s counterfeit healing.” This statement is based on the author’s personal experience, modest exposure to the Toronto Blessing, observation of parachurch healing ministries, and extensive historical reconstructions. Satan’s Counterfeit Healing presents and evaluates Satan’s supernatural healing from the Paleolithic period (ca. 45000 BCE) to the contemporary church. The guiding thesis is that Satan and his demonic surrogates perform miracles which are evident as psi paranormal phenomena. These manifestations include physical and exorcistic supernatural healings. Paleolithic and Neolithic periods produced Great Mother goddess worship and healing, which have persisted ever since. These idolatries, combined with OT nature gods, were a backdrop to Jesus’ true miracles. For two thousand years of church history there’s been a tug-of-war between true and false healing. Mother goddess as Mariological shrine healing joined with natural and demonic magic, and esoteric energy psi. Alongside these the Holy Spirit has raised up genuine healers and their ministries. Modern healing is marked by energy counterfeits and faith healing, the latter especially accompanied by trance, false prophecy, and psi transformations. True divine healing can be recovered when Christians repudiate nature gods, reject false prophecy, and restore proper eschatology. |

| satan's counterfeit christianity: World Religions and Cults Volume 1 Bodie Hodge, Roger Patterson, 2015-08-13 Religions in today’s culture seem to be multiplying. Have you ever wondered why certain religions believe and practice what they do? Or how they view the Bible? This volume delves into these and other engaging questions, such as: How can a Christian witness to people in these religions? Do these other religions believe in creation and a Creator? How do we deal with these religions from a biblical authority perspective? Many religions and cults discussed in this first volume openly affirm that the Bible is true, but then something gets in their way. And there is a common factor every time—man’s fallible opinions. In one way or another the Bible gets demoted, reinterpreted, or completely ignored. Man’s ideas are used to throw the Bible’s clear teaching out the window while false teachings are promoted. This book is a must for laymen, church leaders, teachers, and students to understand the trends in our culture and around the world where certain religions dominate, helping you discern truth and guard your faith. When you understand a religion’s origins and teachings, you are in a better position to know how to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ as you take the good news to those in false religions. |

| satan's counterfeit christianity: The Gospel of Deception Michele Neal, 2017-09-18 The twenty-first century Church seems to be abandoning its holy and anointed role of keeping watch over the souls of those who are followers of Christ. Succumbing to the lure of deceptive teachings, many church leaders are feeding their flock with Satan's counterfeits to authentic Christianity. With a power-packed, Biblical message that will shake the Church to its core, The Gospel of Deception exposes these counterfeits, and warns believers of the dire eternal consequences if they fail to wake up and repent. With global End Times signs escalating at a phenomenal rate, Jesus could return at any moment, but His Bride seems far from ready. The Gospel of Deception is a 'Midnight Cry' for the Bride of Christ to wake up and return to her First Love before it's too late...but will she respond? |

For many people, words like doctrine and theology cause their eyes to glaze over, or they find them difficult to understand and struggle to see how they are relevant to daily life.

In addition to unpacking these beliefs in a way that is easy to understand, Horton shows why they matter to our lives today.

| satan's counterfeit christianity: Confronting: the Kingdom of Cults, Counterfeit Christianity, and Hategroups Dr. John Thomas Wylie, 2018-02-07 Characterizing a faction as a religious gathering which claims approval by Christ and the Bible yet dismisses or mutilates the Gospel, Dr. Wylie talks about an assortment of religions, loathe gatherings, and fake Christianity. Recognizing cliques and detesting gatherings, fake Christianity is the thing required for clergy and lay people who will stand up to individuals from such religions. Inquiries in the content for every section make this a fundamental instrument for individual and gathering dialogues. 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. |

| satan's counterfeit christianity: Counterfeit Christianity Roger E. Olson, 2015-08-04 Historic heresies didn’t die or fade away. Each generation boasts its own. Even while these counterfeit teachings remain outside the accepted bounds of Christianity, modern-day versions plague churches.So how does a church leader or pastor understand and deal with these age-old controversies when they pop up in the congregation? In this book, Roger Olson describes the curses but also gifts that heresies bring the Church. While heresies can occasionally correct a version of orthodoxy, they are not simple confusions or misunderstandings about impenetrable mysteries of divine revelation. Instead they undermine the faith and are dangerous distortions. The author describes major heresies and how the church dealt with them, the players, and what pastors can do to address these faith issues in order to educate congregations about Jesus, God, and salvation. Also included are questions for individual or group study. Also available - a Leader guide with DVD in which Adam Hamilton hosts on-screen conversations with Roger Olson (9781501806360) |

| satan's counterfeit christianity: The Great Controversy Between Christ and Satan: From the Destruction of Jersualem to the End of the Controversy Ellen G. White, 2020-02-20 The Lord has shown me that Satan was once an honored angel in heaven, next to Jesus Christ. His countenance was mild, expressive of happiness like the other angels. His forehead was high and broad, and showed great intelligence. His form was perfect. He had noble, majestic bearing. And I saw that when God said to his Son, Let us make man in our image, Satan was jealous of Jesus. He wished to be consulted concerning the formation of man. He was filled with envy, jealousy and hatred. He wished to be the highest in heaven, next to God, and receive the highest honors. Until this time all heaven was in order, harmony and perfect subjection to the government of God.-Ellen G White |
| satan's counterfeit christianity: Visual Theology Tim Challies, Josh Byers, 2016 We live in a visual culture. Today, people increasingly rely upon visuals to help them understand new and difficult concepts. The rise and stunning popularity of the Internet infographic has given us a new way in which to convey data, concepts and ideas. But the visual portrayal of truth is not a novel idea. Indeed, God himself used visuals to teach truth to his people. The tabernacle of the Old Testament was a visual representation of man's distance from God and God's condescension to his people. Each part of the tabernacle was meant to display something of man's treason against God and God's kind response. Likewise, the sacraments of the New Testament are visual representations of man's sin and God's response. Even the cross was both reality and a visual demonstration. As teachers and lovers of sound theology, Challies and Byers have a deep desire to convey the concepts and principles of systematic theology in a fresh, beautiful and informative way. In this book, they have made the deepest truths of the Bible accessible in a way that can be seen and understood by a visual generation. |
