The Corruption of Christianity

When the Cross Met the Crown: How Constantine Traded Persecution for Power The story of early Christianity is often told in two distinct chapters: the era of the martyrs, where faith flourished under the shadow of the lion's mouth, and the era of the empire, which began abruptly with Emperor Constantine the Great. While Constantine's legalization of Christianity in the 4th century is celebrated as a divine victory, it also initiated a profound and arguably fatal shift in the nature of the faith.

How to Guard Your Faith: The Bible’s 3 Tests for False Teaching

Deception in the church isn't a future threat—it's an ever-present reality that Jesus and the apostles repeatedly warned us about. From the pulpits of prosperity to the claims of new apostles, false teaching is designed to look spiritual, feel uplifting, and sound appealing to your "itching ears." But how do you protect your faith when the lies are so subtly twisted with truth? The Bible provides a simple, three-part framework for spiritual self-defense, the Test of Doctrine, The Test of Character, and The Test of Outcomes.
