About this sermon
6/07/2026 Our world is influenced by what Paul calls “the traditions of men” and “the basic principles of this world” that are often contrary to Scripture. The worldly influence threatens a person’s walk with Christ, and more broadly, the Church itself. What were the things of Paul’s day that he was warning the church at Colosse about, and how does this translate to what threatens the Church today? Pastor Gary mentions the cultural issues, but focuses primarily on the worldly philosophies and aberrant doctrines that have slipped into the Church. 00:00 - Introduction 00:16 - Warnings to the Church in a Crazy World 21:39 - New York's Gender-Neutral Legislation 25:00 - 9 Dangerous Doctrine or Practices We Should Avoid. 25:44 - 1) Flying Rainbow Flags 26:05 - 2) Promoting Social Justice 26:18 - 3) Wearing or Displaying the Palestinian Keffiyeh as a Statement of Opposition to Israel 26:54 - 4) A Movement called, "The Third Way" 27:44 - 5) A Movement called, "New Apostolic Reformation" (NAR) 28:09 - 6) Attacks on the Validity of the Bible 30:20 - 7) Belief in Universalism 30:38 - 8) Belief in Annihilationism 31:06 - 9) Belief in a "Flat Earth" 34:40 - Charge for the Church ABOUT US: https://cornerstonechapel.net/hello GROW: If you made a decision to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior text "I have decided" to (703) 844-9969.
