GraceLife Thoughts – Terrible Teaching

How did “Neo-paganism” make its way into the modern church? The Bible clearly points a finger at terrible teaching. Pastors, Bible teachers, seminary professors, religious authors, worship song writers, etc., have been teaching terrible theology for decades. They may have been deceived or they may be the deceivers. Whatever the reason, that bad teaching is causing very bad things to happen in churches and denominations across America. Christians are readily accepting Neo-pagan beliefs and practices into their lives and congregations because of terrible teaching. 

Pastors and teachers have a particular responsibility in the Christian community. They are to shepherd, feed, guard, and equip the people of God for “their” maturity and ministry –

And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. Ephesians 4:11-16

Pastors and teachers are supposed to help Christians “not” be tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine. Notice where that comes from – “by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.” The infiltration of Neo-paganism in the church doesn’t happen by chance. It happens because of the “trickery” of men. It happens because of the “cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.” The church in America is in the position it’s in because of bad teaching.
