The Fundamentalism Problem: How Apostolic Churches Decide Who’s Really Saved - EP133

What is fundamentalism?  And does it describe Apostolic Pentecostalism? In this episode, we define the term clearly, as we walk through how it has shifted from protecting core doctrine to building systems that draw hard lines around who is “in” and who is “out.” We connect the dots between fundamentalism and legalism, showing how one creates the environment for the other to thrive. Along the way, we ask honest questions about Oneness Pentecostalism and whether its structure reflects this modern definition. Most importantly, we point back to the gospel and remind you that your standing with God is built on Christ alone, not a system.For, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. - Romans 10:3-4 ESVLast Week: The Legalism Lie: How Churches Reject the Label but Keep the System - EP132Playlists:Full Podcast Playlist⁠ - YoutubeHoliness StandardsThe Church BuildingExamining PentecostalismThe “MOG” (Man of God)All About The MoneyAbuse In The PulpitAddressing NAYC CommentsFEAR!!!
