John Pipers Errors
By David Cox
In this post John Pipers Errors we introduce some thoughts on why John Piper is not worth following in his theology and thoughts. We should begin with his Calvinism, but as a man of God, Piper falls down on many fronts.

Pastoral Covetousness
By David Cox
A false prophet is easily identified by their Pastoral Covetousness. Simply put, he desires a high life which he gets from his relationship with the church. In this study, we look at how the Bible requires the man of God to stand far off from covetousness.

Topic:Narcissism Definition
By David Cox
My Tract on PC50 Narcissism versus Love
Summary: This post gives Narcissism Definition and explains what narcissism is, and how it affects you and guides you away from the false prophet.
Narcissism is defined in dictionary.com as being…
noun 1. inordinate fascination with oneself; excessive self-love; vanity.Synonyms: self-centeredness, smugness, egocentrism.
2. Psychoanalysis. erotic gratification derived from admiration of one’s own physical or mental attributes, being a normal condition at the infantile level of personality development.
Narcissism is a concentration self-love that is very easily recognizable, and most false prophets clearly evolve into this narcissistic model. If you wish to stay away from the bad influence of a wrong, bad, unfit church leader, you need go no further than compare him with the elements of Narcissism to see how he stacks up. Maybe not every single false prophet will be recognizable by his narcissism, by much more than the majority will.
The Narcissist is a person who is totally focused on himself/herself which puts their own person, benefit, pleasure, and glory above everybody else.

Cults: What is salvation? How does it change you? is a short article on how true salvation changes the person.

Covetousness in the Ministry
By David Cox
Col 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
If we understand the true man of God’s mental attitude towards covetousness, then discerning false prophets becomes greatly easier. Most false prophets have an agenda, and this agenda is by far and widely seen in his covetousness, the obtaining of riches for himself. There are other agendas like sexual control over others, or even fame and glory, or control over the brethren, but this one element of covetousness is very strong in most false prophets.
