The Eastern Regional Watch is a discernment/apologetics resource
ministry founded on the Word of God, specifically Ezekiel 33:7; to stand watch and guard against deception, false teachings
and the philosophies of men that attempt to infiltrate the
church body and to warn of heresies that have infected the church body
from within. We are followers and disciples of Jesus Christ here to
represent Him to others in love and humility, in the fear of God with a message
that is rightly dividing the Word of truth. (2 Timothy 2:15)
It is written in Matthew 7:13-21, we are to:
enter
ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way,
that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto
life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which
come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or
figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but
a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth
evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every
tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the
fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. 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.
This
ministry is reaching out to those who are attempting to grow in their
relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, walking in the
truth and desiring to mature in Him, learning to discern good from evil. We
call upon the church to recognize the need to examine the spiritual
house from the inside out, and as the word says,
Know ye not that a little leaven
leaveneth the whole lump? Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye
may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover
is sacrificed for us: 1 Corinthians 5:6-7
The
Apostle Paul said, For
though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the
weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the
pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every
high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and
bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
2 Corinthians 10:3-5
The
Apostle Paul also stated:
For I am jealous over you with godly
jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present
you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as
the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be
corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh
preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive
another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which
ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. 2 Corinthians 11:2-4
The plain truth is that false doctrine
has been the chosen engine which Satan has employed in every
age....Unable to prevent the Fountain of Life being opened, he has
laboured incessantly to poison the streams which flow from it....False
doctrine soon overspread the Primitive Church after the death of the
Apostles....False doctrine in the middle ages so completely overspread
the Church, that the truth as it is in Jesus was well nigh buried or
drowned. During the last three centuries before the Reformation, it is
probable that very few "Christians" in Europe could have answered the
question, "What must I do to be saved?"....False doctrine since the days
of the Reformation has continually been rising up again....
