Sermons About Heresy
Do Not Love the Ways of the World
A Christian either loves God or the world, not both. There is no such thing as a 'worldly Christian' or a 'carnal Christian.' These are false doctrines of men set on not offending anyone and denying the authority of God.

Beware of False Teachers - God Knows How to Deal with Liars

In 2009, we too deal with false teachers trying to get us to believe the lies, rather than the truth of God. Check out what Peter has to say about how God will deal with them.

The Danger of False Teachers
9 Do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace, not by foods, which have not benefited those devoted to them. The command here is very simple but one that must be obeyed. It is your one point for this morning and then I would like to provide some application for this point.

The Heresy of the Well-Intended
Judges 17 illustrates God's sovereign hand in the midst of gross immorality. The setting is some 30 to 40 years after the Israelites' entrance to the promised land - a time when "every man did right in his own eyes." The account of Ephram and Micah demonstrates what happens when you overlook sin and ignore God. The steps to gross immorality depend on what you think about God. What we find is that without God, we have no standards and the decay of standards among people often starts with small reductions of God and small elevations of man. But the Bible teaches us that all peoples of the world need a Godly shepherd, and adhering to the truths of God's word is paramount so that we may not be cast unto immorality.

Don't Swerve
The content of the Gospel message is absolutely critical in this call to endurance. The narrative of God’s covenant-keeping work in the world can be seen through the themes of creation, fall, redemption and recreation. And in the midst of this great story we can also get a glimpse into the heart of the Gospel, “For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.†(1 Cor. 15:3-4, ESV) We must walk on in the truth of this gospel.

Heresy of the Heart
In the closing verses of Galatians we are directed to the importance of this book by Paul's large hand writing. We also see that the real reason why these Jews are seeking circumcision is so that they do not have to suffer persecution for being a Christian. The real problem in Galatia is a Heresy of the Heart. So how do you hide your Christianity.
