We here at Semper Reformanda
will utilize this section of the web site to help combat and expose
heresies that have plagued the Christian's
walk with error. The scriptures reveal error even in the church's
inception.
Jesus Himself warned:
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come
to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do
men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth
good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil
fruit, neither can
a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth
good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall
know them.
Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me,
Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth
the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord,
Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out
devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I
never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
The apostle Peter warns of such scenarios:
2Pe 2:1 But there were false prophets also
among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who
privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that
bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2Pe 2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious
ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
2Pe 2:3 And through covetousness shall they
with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long
time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
2Pe 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that
sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered
them into chains of darkness,
to be reserved unto judgment;
There is no denying that not
every church is a true church. There are certain orthodox fundamentals
that make up a church of the true living God. Many of today's churches
try and pawn themselves off as true churches. However, their doctrine
and theology deny it.

get an idea of what is considered historically orthodox.
