Refuting False Gospels

refuting false gospels the apostasy files

Most of the social media ministries we profile have no published statement of faith. That should be the first warning sign that all is not well. A true gospel preaching ministry will preach and defend and proclaim the good news of the gospel (we state it on the sidebar of this site) loudly and clearly. It’s also in the video intro on the front page. And it should be their first priority.

The common thread we find in these ministries is that their websites and services have a heavy if not exclusive focus on deliverance from demons and emotional/spiritual experiences they refer to as “moves of God” Sermons are light on Scripture and often contain errors. And when examined closely some do preach a very false gospel of works. Some openly preach a false Jesus, as in Marcus Rogers and his Oneness beliefs.

Some give testimonies that simply consist of having a supernatural experience.

There is no repentance or confession of faith in Christ alone. A supernatural experience is not evidence of salvation, and it is misleading to imply this by presenting this as a testimony.

Of course, they deny that they preach works. If pressed they will affirm that we are saved by grace. But then they turn right back around and tell people that they can’t be saved if they struggle with sins or don’t speak in tongues or have not been baptized. They wrongly teach contrary to the truth that our works cannot save us nor can they assure our salvation.

They will always have an angle by which to compel people that they need the intervention of another person. Whether it is baptism, speaking in tongues, deliverance or some other “move of God’ they have taken the place of Christ as our intermediator with God, and in practice, this is a false gospel. Most even charge money for their services, thereby directly charging for salvation, and even worse, selling their deliverance or laying of hands as if channeling the work of the Holy Spirit. This is blasphemous.


Exhibit #1

This video from Montana Viking shows how Marcus Rogers’ version of salvation is not based in grace.


Exhibit 2

This video also features Marcus Rogers who not only preaches a false gospel related to speaking in tongues, in this video he further expands his false doctrine.
