First John chapter 2 tells us that three things - three vain and empty things - constitute the sum total of all that this present evil world can offer. What are those things? Why must those things become more and more foreign to the life of the true believers in Christ?

So often, Christians fall into the trap of focusing on the things of this earth, and thinking and living as though this life is all there is.

In Colossians chapter two, Paul warns us against the tyranny of man-made doctrines by putting a human face on the problem. Man-made doctrines come when human beings twist Scripture. But the Bible tells us that behind the human face of man-made doctrines is the unseen face of Satan and his spiritual forces. All man-made doctrines are Satanic counterfeits. We're going to focus on this vital point as we continue our study today at Colossians chapter two, verse eighteen.

From New Testament times up to the present time, the church has been troubled by false doctrines promoting counterfeit mediators instead of the one Mediator between God and men, Jesus Christ. What is a counterfeit mediator? What are some examples in today's church? How does Jesus differ from all of them? Stay tuned for the answers, as we conclude our study of Colossians chapter two.

Mormons call themselves "Latter-Day Saints." But what is their definition of a saint? Does it pass the Biblical test? Today we shall see that four key elements of Mormon teaching combine to put forth a false gospel that condemns rather than saves.

Mormonism's confusing and contradictory soteriology:

. denies Christ's atonement
. says that each person must atone for his own sins by works
. teaches near-universal "salvation"
. says that Mormon men will become gods ruling their own planets, while all others will be relegated to the status of second- and third-class citizens for eternity.

But what does Scripture say? Stay tuned to learn more.

One of the most confusing and contradictory areas of Mormon theology is its false doctrine of what it calls "the Holy Spirit." It is also one of the areas in which true Christians can be most easily deceived. Stay tuned to learn more as we continue our series, "Christianity vs. Mormonism."

Mormonism teaches a pagan counterfeit of the doctrine of the Trinity. Is this a mere theological technicality? Absolutely not! In fact, there is no salvation for sinners apart from the work of the Trinity as taught in Scripture. Stay tuned to learn more, as we continue our series, "Christianity vs. Mormonism."

What does Mormonism teach about the Bible? Does this cult, which even some Evangelicals are calling "Christian", have a valid standard of truth? As we put Mormonism to the test required by God (1 John 4:1) we find that what it calls "scripture" is in fact a collection of evil fictions with roots in the occult.

Ancient paganism is alive and active in present-day Mormonism. Mormon writings reveal that this cult's "God the Father" is not the one true and living God of Scripture, but a pagan monstrosity even worse than the Greeks' Zeus and the Romans' Jupiter. Stay tuned to learn more.

Like all cults that falsely claim to be Christian, Mormonism redefines the Bible's terminology. Nowhere is this more the case than in Mormonism's horrible disfigurement of the incarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ. They have invented a pagan substitute for the authentic Jesus.

Stay tuned to learn why "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints" is a false name for a false church.
