Syncretism – Part Three – The Harlot and the Scarlet Beast

Syncretism – Part Three – The Harlot and the Scarlet Beast

by | Feb 12, 2010

Joseph Herrin (02-12-2010) It is only possible to accept that the picture above is an image of what Christ intended His church to be if one has become divorced from the truth. To be divorced from the truth is the definition of the word apostasy. II Thessalonians 2:1-3 Now we request you, brethren,...

Syncretism – Part Two

Syncretism – Part Two

by | Feb 11, 2010

Note: Some have written to me to express various opinions on this teaching series, of which only the first part has yet been posted. Some are concerned that the definition of Babylon and coming out of her is too narrow if applied only to rites and symbols such as those of Easter and Christmas....

Intermission

by | Feb 10, 2010

Before continuing the series on Syncretism, I want to share some things sent to me by brothers and sisters in Christ. SuperBowl I have had quite a few responses to the article on the SuperBowl. Following is an insightful e-mail I received last night from a brother in Christ. Joseph,I just wanted...

Syncretism

by | Feb 9, 2010

(02-09-2010) Note: I want to share a link to an excellent post by Art, a brother in Christ. His insights drawn from his experience of running a 100 mile race where horses competed alongside humans is highly insightful. His experience also has great application to the coming hour of distress when...

Did the SAINTS Really Win SuperBowl 44?

Did the SAINTS Really Win SuperBowl 44?

Joseph Herrin (02-08-2010) Final Score New Orleans Saints 31 - Indianapolis Colts 17 As I sit down to write this my computer clock reports that the time is 22:22. The Weather Channel gadget on my iGoogle homepage reports that the temperature where I sit is 44 degrees. The Colts led during the...

The One Thing Lacking…

The One Thing Lacking…

by | Feb 3, 2010

Joseph Herrin (02-03-2010) Perhaps you have noted the tiniest hint of frustration in my recent posts. Okay, maybe there has been a LOT of frustration. Do you know that our heavenly Father will at times drive us to frustration that we might begin to cry out for that which is lacking in our life?...

An Invitation to Pray

An Invitation to Pray

by | Feb 2, 2010

Joseph Herrin (02-02-2010) Many Hands Make Light Work Although the picture above represents a pun on this old proverb, I felt it was appropriate for what I desire to convey. Ministering the light and life of Christ to others is never an individual matter. This is especially true among the BODY of...

Suffering for Sloth

Suffering for Sloth

by | Feb 1, 2010

Joseph Herrin (02-01-2010) One thing that provokes me is when Christians fail to exert themselves to study a matter carefully to discern truth from error. I was speaking to a brother in Christ on this topic yesterday, and I found myself speaking with much emotion. I related to him the deep concern...

A Ministry to the Few – Part Three

A Ministry to the Few – Part Three

by | Jan 27, 2010

Joseph Herrin (01-27-2010) Genesis 45:7-8 And God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to keep you alive by a great deliverance. Now, therefore, it was not you who sent me here, but God... Is it not amazing that even as far back as the first book of the Bible we read...

A Ministry to the Few – Part Two

A Ministry to the Few – Part Two

by | Jan 25, 2010

Joseph Herrin (01-25-2010) Luke 12:32 "Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has chosen gladly to give you the kingdom.” I love the above picture. There is a shepherd going before the sheep (staff in hand). There is a straight and narrow path. There is also a little flock. In America it...

A Ministry to the Few

Joseph Herrin (01-24-2010) Note: I appreciate tremendously the outpouring of welcome at my return to ministry. For all those who have written me, please know that I am grateful for your encouragement. I also look forward to seeing many of you face-to-face as the Father sends me out across America...

The Hour is at Hand

The Hour is at Hand

by | Jan 21, 2010

Joseph Herrin (01-21-2010) We live in an hour of great transition. Perhaps those in America can discern the physical type of this transition that was signified in President Obama’s campaign promise of “Change.” Indeed, great change is being wrought in this nation, but not of a positive kind. This...
