Many people who visit DefCon come here seeking truth. They have heard lies and stories told by those who claim to be shepherds and pastors, only to find they have been lied to and misled. Others are new Christians who are looking for help to understand what is truth, where to find it, who can [...]

Gaithers enter “The Shack”
Posted in Apostasy/Lukewarm, Music, New Age Nonsense, tagged "The Shack", Apprising Ministries, Bill Gaither, Gaither Vocal Band, Gloria Gaither, Key Life, Mark Lowry, Steve Brown on June 16, 2009 | 8 Comments »
Sadly, Bill and Gloria Gaither–names almost synonymous with Southern Gospel music–have joined the apostasy that is “The Outhouse” “The Shack.” A couple weeks ago, they held a “Family Fest” (hat tip: Apprising Ministries) in Gatlinburg, TN (pop: 3800. pop during tourist season: 2,500,000), right near my back yard. And who were two of their guest [...]

Phyllis Tickle (She’s the one on the right. And yes, that’s her name, and that’s what she does to the ears) was invited to speak at a pagan shrine in Grand Rapids, MI recently. The shrine to the gods is headed by emergent guru Rob Bell, and was host to this woman who quoted all kinds of [...]
Our Daily Bread Crumbles??

Few who personally know me realize I have concerns over the devotional publication entitled Our Daily Bread. This little publication gives a daily text reading from the Scripture accompanied by a little story of some kind designed to give encouragement as the reader travels the rat race of life for the day.
However, when the [...]
Todd Bentley exposed as fraud

Unfortunately, we don’t have a category here called “News of the Obvious.” Because if we did, this would be at the top of the list. As if we needed any further proof that Todd Bentley was a liar, conniver, charlatan, false prophet, etc–in addition to the kicking, kneeing, motorcycle boots to the face, and all [...]
Bezel333: “21st Century signs and wonders”

Once again, Bezel uncovers the truth using a little thing called “Scripture” to debunk the claims made by the Satanic signs and lying wonders crowd who take God out of the box and make Him dance like He’s their own little puppet.

Quiz for 1/26/2009
Posted in Apostasy/Lukewarm, Charismania, Music, New Age Nonsense, Occult, Prosperity Pimps, Random Selections, Theology, tagged compromise, experience, hipness, Quiz, relevance on January 26, 2009 | 9 Comments »
OK, here is another quiz for you.
The question this time is, what kind of worship is the following quote describing? And, as usual, no fair Googling.
“The emphasis [is on] psychophysical relatedness and subjective experience…The transcendence of the deity is overcome in the ecstasy of feeling. Sensory participation is featured. Images are necessary-the bolder, the more [...]
Girl Scouts Continue Plunge into New Age Spirituality
Posted in New Age Nonsense, Occult, tagged Error, False Teaching, Girl Scouts, godess worship, Spiritualism, Testing the Spirits on November 27, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Source: Editors at Lighthouse Trails
According to an article this week by Jane Chastain titled “Girl Scouts go hard left–and downhill,” the Girl Scouts of America are heading deeper into New Age spirituality. Chastain states that the direction the organization is going in was clear to see at the “51st Girl Scout National Council Session [...]
Damnable Dominionism
Posted in Apostasy/Lukewarm, False Christs, New Age Nonsense, Occult on October 16, 2008 | 10 Comments »
“Preach the gospel at all times and when necessary use words.”
This famous phrase has been attributed to St. Francis of Assisi, founder of the Franciscan Order. Whether he actually made this statement is irrelevant for the purposes this post because regardless of the human source the true spiritual source of such blatant nonsense is Satan [...]
Jesus Christ – JUST a Jewish Peasant???
Posted in Apostasy/Lukewarm, New Age Nonsense, tagged Cal.vini.st, Dr Macnab, False Teachers, Melbourne Australia, New faith, St Michaels Uniting Church, the truth of God on October 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The following is an excerpt from this Australian Newspaper Website. You can read the remainder of the article by following the link.
“Dr Macnab says Abraham is probably a concoction, Moses was a mass murderer and Jesus Christ just a Jewish peasant who certainly was not God. In fact, there is no God, in the usual [...]
Filled With The Ecstacy of God???
Posted in Apostasy/Lukewarm, New Age Nonsense, tagged Ekstasis, out of the mind, Patricia King, worship in dance on August 22, 2008 | 4 Comments »
Pay close attention to what happens when the music starts about 5:09 and then LISTEN to what he says about “no longer having to study the Word” at about 5:52 into the video!
What Club Mysterio, Ekstasis Worship, and Patricia King are all offering worship which is not acceptable to God. PlumblineApologetics [...]
Christian Extremism
Posted in Apostasy/Lukewarm, New Age Nonsense, Purpose Driven Lie, The Occult on August 13, 2008 | 8 Comments »
This is the year where we as solid bible believing Christians are going to start seeing the intolerance grow towards us more and more. Can you guess where the majority of these attacks will come from? The mainstream churches.
One of the most surprising predictions was made several decades ago by one of my favorite pastors, [...]
Becoming a God
Posted in Mormonism, New Age Nonsense, Roman Catholicism, The Occult on August 10, 2008 | 9 Comments »
If you’re looking for a religion that promotes the aspiration to become a god, you won’t have to look far.
This seemingly popular doctrine must appeal to a basic desire of sinful men. Satan played on this desire in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3) when he convinced Adam and Eve to doubt God, who had [...]
Bezel333 on “The Circle of Life”
Posted in New Age Nonsense, The Occult, tagged Bezel333, Lion King, reincarnation, video on July 1, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The title of the video is “Reincarnation or Resurrection?” Ever see “The Lion King?” With so much Eastern Mysticism running rampant in American churches (”The Gospel According to the Beatles,” for example) the fact that all will be resurrected–the just will be resurrected to life, the wicked will be resurrected to death. We will not [...]
Bezel333 on the “Intentions” of D. Wayne Dyer
Posted in New Age Nonsense, The Occult, tagged Bezel333, D. Wayne Dyer, Star Wars, The Force, video, Yoda on June 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
In this Age of New Age, the sound scholarship of men like Bezel333 is a welcome oasis in a desert of…yuckiness.
D. Wayne Dyer, who sounds like a High Priest in the Church of Oprah, teaches a mushy-gushy, “You are everything” type of religion–kind of like the “prosperity ‘gospel’”.
Brown Eyes Like Bambi!!??

HT: Independent Conservative – The whole message by Patricia King (a new-age kook) and Todd Bentley is drivel, but Todd’s revelation starts at about 2:40 into the video clip!
Hard to believe that so many people actually take these fruit and nuts seriously! Have a great Wednesday!
Oprah Winfrey’s necromancy

Isaiah 8:19-20–And when they say to you, “Seek those who are mediums and wizards, who whisper and mutter,” should not a people seek their God? Should they seek the dead on behalf of the living? To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there [...]
More on Rick Warren
Posted in Apostasy/Lukewarm, New Age Nonsense, News, Purpose Driven Lie on May 31, 2008 | 2 Comments »
(Off topic play on words: Say this post title three times really fast! )
From Slice of Laodicea we find yet more of Purpose Driven Protestant Pope “Pastor” Rick Warren’s smarmy New Age inspired ecumenical madness run amok. Is there still any question as to whether “Pastor” Rick has spiraled downward into utter and rank apostasy? [...]
More doctrines of demons.

In the same spirit (1 John 4:1) as Dan Kimball’s They Like Jesus But Not The Church, comes I Love Jesus, I hate Christianity by Kim Michaels.
There’s no need for me to comment on this New Age drivel. I’ll let the description of the book speak for itself:
“Despite the catchy and irreverent title, this [...]

The man in the following video does a good job at explaining the problem with Oprah, and just how dangerous she is.
And Oprah explains how she reconciles her New Age occultism with her “Christianity.”

Posted in New Age Nonsense, The Occult on October 7, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I always feel kind of embarrassed for those who turn out to be frauds after claiming to be something they’re not (like Joseph Smith). In the following five short videos you’ll see world-renowned fraud psychic Sylvia Browne make terrible assumptions. The only thing sadder than the fact that the people in these videos sought out [...]
