Christians, those who love, serve and live in Christ Jesus, are enjoined to contend for the faith once delivered to the saints. Saints, those who are sanctified by the Lord’s grace, are involved in a spiritual battle against dark forces, spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6: 10 onwards makes this point clearly.
In the various denominations today there are destructive doctrines that have crept in slowly and subtly. They have been expounded and promoted by clever and cunning folk who believe that there can be spirituality without repentance, discipleship without holiness and Christianity without the cross. So their god has no wrath, their kingdom has no judgement, their followers are not concerned about sin, their Christ is a social worker and their authority derives from their own experience, knowledge and world view. Well that’s heresy.

Here’s a thought: a heretic is not a heretic just by what he says, what he affirms, it is also what doesn’t say, what he deliberately leaves out that’s the way of heresy. A true preacher declares the whole counsel of God and doesn’t avoid important truths.
