Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my
pasture! saith the LORD. Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against
the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them
away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your
doings, saith the LORD (Jeremiah 23:1-2).
The LORD hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust
in a lie (Jeremiah 28:15b).
Answering the Apostasy of Modern bibles and More exists to expose the apostasy that 71% of pastors have fallen for.
71% of Christian pastors are apostate: they were either indoctrinated into
apostasy through education, or they fell away from the truth by deception; whichever the case, most pastors and Bible teachers believe in some or all of the modern Christian apostasy, namely, 1) modern bibles, 2) the pre-tribulation
rapture, and 3) dispensationalism. Since it is true that the majority of pastors are apostate, the law of averages dictates then that it is highly likely that the pastor of your church is also apostate. This world-wide ministry
exists to educate those who understand English against apostasy, those who will listen to the sermons here at Answering the Apostasy of Modern bibles and More or at our room by the same name on Paltalk.com. It is our hope to partner
with the Lord to rescue pastors, Bible teachers, and Christians that have been fooled, through indoctrination or deception, from believing in modern Christian apostasy. We attempt this rescue through the power of prayer, the Holy Spirit,
and sermons by pastors from various denominations from around the world whom are already at work using chapters and verses in the Holy Scriptures to expose the apostasy that has been accepted by the majority of today's shepherds, pastors
whose duty it is to defend the flock of Christianity from the wolves, yet those deceived shepherds unwittingly themselves fleece God's people.
We expose apostasy using the light of the Word of God, and by our example endeavor to
re-establish the Holy Scriptures in the minds of Christians as the Sole Authority for doctrine and practice. Nothing, not opinion, not tradition, not Bible teachers, not pastors, ought to define a Christian's beliefs more than the Sole
Authority, the Word of God. If something does have more influence over a Christian's beliefs than the Holy Bible, then that something becomes the sole authority, which is idolatry, because something or someone is in higher esteem than
what God said in His Word. For each Christian rule #1 ought to be: Until you can show me chapters and verses in the Word of God that prove your doctrine or teaching, I will not believe it. However, the problem with a rule like that
is that the majority of Christians who fill up church pews do not read the Holy Scriptures. The reason for that is because some Christians mistakenly thinking that if they do not read God's Word they will not be responsible to what is
written within the pages. Many modern Christians have no interest in God's Word, in fact they are happy to sit in church and trust the pastor, as if they are under the misconception that the pastor receives direct revelation from God
to pass on to the congregation; however, many others are happy to trust the pastor because he never preaches on sins, such as pre-marital sex and drunkeness. Whether a Bible teacher or a pastor stands behind the pulpit, he is just
a man, and being a man he is capable of error (any wife can attest to that). It is vital that Christians read the Bible daily so that they are not ignorant of the Word of God, and thus can recognize when the pastor strays into apostasy.
We want to exhort Christians to be responsible and good stewards of the new life that Christ Jesus has bought for them with His blood on the cross. The first step for the Christian, after salvation and after obedience in baptism, is
to read daily the inerrant, infalliable, inspired, perfect, preserved, and promised Word of God. What else will keep you and your family from apostasy other than study of the actual Word of Almighty God?
As you listen to Answering the Apostasy of Modern bibles and More and as you study with diligence the Scriptures, like the Bereans of Acts
17:10-12, you will be amazed at the apostasy that you have been a part of, and fearfully astonished at the craftiness of Satan as the veil is lifted from your mind and your thinking is set free from the bondage of tradition, misconception,
and deception. What you will discover is that those in whom you trusted to protect you, such as your pastor, have actually been victimizing you; although, not intentionally, for we all have been guilty of enthusiastically sharing information with friends and family, only later, upon closer
examination, we discovered that the information we spread was incorrect, and, sadly, we realized that we had disseminated fallacy. Unfortunately, the damage we did was done, for those we told had no doubt shared with equal enthusiasm
the information with others. The damage was done the same as if we had intended to deceive. If I accidentally shoot and kill you while displaying my gun, are you not just as dead as if I had intended to kill you? Likewise, well-meaning
Christians have inadvertently deceived us, and in the same way we have accidentally deceived others. The fault, however, lies with us: for if we elect to trust the source, like the pastor for instance, rather than exercise our responsibility
to confirm that the information given to us was factual and correct before we believe it, then we choose to be deceived. It is equally our fault if we deceive others by teaching them what we only assume to be truth based on our trust in the
source. Everyone would agree that, if we intend to teach, we have a responsibilty to those we teach to be sure that we are not deceiving them, that we are teaching truth. Therefore, we Christians have a responsibility to search the Holy
Scriptures to be sure that the source, whether it be a pastor or a Bible teacher, is teaching scriptural truth. That will sound foreign to most of you, but the first and most important truth for the new Christian to understand is that the
Word of God is the Sole Authority, not the pastor. Unfortunately, many Christians do not know where to find the Word of God, and even less read the Holy Bible; and so, naturally, these innocent Christians sit in churches, like sponges,
soaking up false doctrine, and then in turn they enthusiastically and ignorantly spread the apostasy they hear to others, like a virus infected sponge on a newborn baby. These same Christians attempt to educate baby Christians, but in
doing so they, with good and enthusiastic intentions, become unwitting tools of Satan, teaching misinformation, even false doctrine. In case you do not recall the account recorded in Matthew chapter 4, it was Satan who, face to face with
Christ, quoted Scripture to attempt to convince the would-be Savior of the world to commit suicide! If Satan was so bold as to attempt to use Scripture to manipulate Christ, how much more easily do you supose it would be for him to corrupt
any pastor? After all, Satan only needs to corrupt one man in your church, the pastor, and once that has happened, the pastor then becomes an agent of Satan, corrupting the congregation of God from behind the pulpit.
The majority of Christians who listen to Answering the Apostasy of Modern bibles and More will remain in the darkness of
apostasy, for we cannot reveal anything that the Lord, through the Holy Spirit, is not leading an individual to see: it is the Lord who will lead you out of the apostasy in response to your obedience to the Holy Bible and as you seek the truth; only then will the apostasy that you have been a part of be revealed. Statistically only 29% of you will escape apostasy, and the rest will remain blinded. Those Christians who do escape apostasy through listening to Answering the Apostasy of Modern bibles and More will not so much see the truth as have the truth confirmed, truth that the Lord was already revealing through daily and obedient study of the Word of God. As stated elsewhere, this website is for the 71% of pastors, Bible teachers, and Christians whom, though deceived by the apostasy of 1) modern bibles, 2) the pre-tribulation rapture, and 3) dispensationalism, the Lord is leading out of apostasy in response to their obedience and desire for the truth. Additionally, our intention is to exhort Christians, those who regard the Holy Bible as no more significant than any other book, of their responsibility to read and study the Holy Scriptures daily, to cherish rather than ignore the Old Book that God Himself left for us, and to understand that the Holy Bible is not men's words, but that the Holy Bible is God's Word. Christians need to truly realize and understand that it is both a priviledge and a responsibility to read the Book that God wrote. Furthermore, all Christians need to understand that without God's Word we have no Sole Authority, and without the Sole Authorithy, God's Word, we have no way of knowing when our pastors stray into false doctrine. It is only through daily reading of the Sole Authority that Christians will be able to recognize apostasy.
When we go to church we all desire to relax, drop our guard, and sit at the
feet of the man of God, the pastor, expecting to hear 100% truth; however, that is an
unrealistic hope, for the only people fortunate enough to have that experience
were those who sat at the feet of Jesus. Because Satan only need corrupt one man in your church, the pastor, all
the rest of us must test what the pastor teaches against what God's Word states. With that said, let us renew our vigilance against the enemy, making a resolution to read the Sole Authority daily as we earnestly contend for the faith.
Proclaiming the truth world-wide and 24 hours per day, because the truth cannot be refuted—only denied,

Since September 25, 2011  Christians have sought to escape apostasy.
