It has been said that Satan has no new material. He merely repackages the same old lies for a new set of consumers. As you look at church history, you can see how true this is. Word of Faith teachers today repeat the heretics of the past. Arminianism is really an echo of Palagius and his error. Likewise, the Gnostics being dead, yet speak through their advocates today. This fascinating study by Robert Jones details the heresies of the early church. It is sobering to realize that many of these same battles are facing us once again. The question is whether we will demonstrate to the same passion for truth as those like Athanasius, who stood courageously against the tide of error in his day.
