Dear Christians… | You MUST Employ Discernment in the Mainstream Church

A lot of people who decide to read the Bible for themselves for the first time quickly realize something uncomfortable, and in many ways disturbing: when it comes to mainstream theology, we’ve been duped.

The institutional church is in the falling away, but it’s happening systematically, and most of us have been looking for the wrong signs.

I want to show you what scholars wrote two hundred years ago, before the drift, and let you decide whether the plain text agrees with what you’ve been taught.

Prophecy Without the Panic: Before You Build the Bunker | Daily Bread

You can run to and fro through scripture and still go hungry. The motion itself doesn’t feed you. And that’s the thing about prophecy. It was never meant to produce the panicked running to and fro it often seems to. Prophecy is meant to produce people who stopped running long enough to wait, who waited long enough to receive, and who received enough to rise. The wise will understand, not because they were smarter or more studious, but because they asked. Because they stopped. Because they let the Word do what the Word does when you give it room.

It was five o’clock this morning when I fell down a rabbit hole about a 7th-century Chinese prophecy text and ended up face to face with something I think the church is dangerously close to missing.

When Pope Leo recently put words in the mouth of Christ that Christ never spoke, I recognized that pattern immediately. This is not new. It has a very old author.
