Apostasy

"But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith,
paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,
'by means of the hypocrisy of liars
seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron,'"1 Timothy 4:1-2

Martin Luther

Luther's hatred for Jews has resulted in a biased outlook towards Martin Luther and Christianity. This unawareness of Luther's sinister side, while honoring his "righteousness" leads to a ratcheting promotion of Luther which supports a "good" public image while also transporting his Jewish beliefs to those who carry the seeds of anti-Semitism. This will present an unwanted dilemma for many Christians because Luther represents the birth of Protestant Christianity as well as the genesis of the special brand of Jewish hatred that flourished only in Germany.

Although Luther did not invent anti-Jewishness (as the Roman Catholic Church and most of their popes were anti-semetic) Luther in his rage against them because they would not convert, promoted anti-semitism to a level never before seen in Europe. His vengeful writings and books were used by Nazi Germany, resulting in Mein Kampf. In Mein Kampf, Hitler listed Martin Luther as one of the greatest reformers.

"Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification":
A Denial of the Gospel and the Righteousness of Christ

Global Lutheran World Federation History

If on judgement day the Lord asks me what I did,
if nothing else, I can say that
I signed the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification.
– Cardinal Edward Idris Cassidy

"Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh
the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord:
walk as children of light:
(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness,
but rather reprove them." Ephesians 5:6-11

Billy Graham is a Great Deceiver

Tex Marrs writes that "The hounds of Hell will come after you
if you dare expose that Billy Graham is a Great Deceiver."
