When a pastor converts to Islam or Atheism

Q: In Indonesia, there's this viral case about an elder from a Presbyterian church here, along with his wife, who converted to Islam and resigned from his position a few weeks ago. The video of the conversion process, which lasted over 5 hours, doesn't contain any debates but rather his reasons for leaving Christianity (the video is in Indonesian and posted by the Muslim who converted him). One of this former elder's doubts was something like this: "God's Word cannot be diminished or added to, but the Bibles in different churches have different numbers of books; some have 66, some 73, and the Greek Orthodox and Ethiopian ones have even more. How can this be considered a holy book?" He also mentioned verses that he believed were added, like Matthew 28:19, which he claimed was inserted or added (I've heard this accusation before, though I can't agree with it, because for me, a piece of data or theory isn't necessarily and cannot immediately become 10...

Catholicism wonky 2

In a discussion about the timeline of errors around when heresy crept into the church, one topic was on end times, because of that view some grabbed hold of, a sect broke out and became known as the Roman Catholic Church.  Most historians, looking at church history, date the beginnings of RCC around late 500s to 606 AD.  During a Bible study on the history of end times error, RCC was brought up and we learn a bit more about that apostate religion. "There's a book called Israel and the Church by Ronald Diprose. This is a fascinating book and exceptionally well done. First printed in Italian; in 2004 it was translated into English.

Here’s how. Israel had altars, right? Worship in the Old Testament, Israel, altars, sacrifices, a sign at birth, a priesthood, a jubilee year. Israel had rituals...

Bart Ehrman

This apostate was hired by colleges to push their anti God anti Christianity  in their anti supernatural worldview taught in most college and universities today. It is why 70% of believing youth lose their faith in college,...  he and other atheist professors are good at decieving and lying to young people, and twisting truth. The schools especially like and promote him (and send him around to conferences and places) to dupe young people, bcuz he claims to have been Christian. That is the reason they use him.  He is making money off of purposely decieving people both by being a preacher/professor/lecturer against God , and by the books he sells that also decieve.  He banked on the fact that young people never look things up online but those days are over... Gen Z Alpha do go online a lot and these kids are finally finding out that teachers and professors LIE. Bart will have a lot to answer to God for, but, regardless God uses others evil to bring about his pu...
