Evangelical-In, of, or according to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the literal teachings of the Holy Bible. Gullible-Easily deceived. Evangullible-Easily deceived by teachings that contradict the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the literal teachings of the Holy Bible. Over the last four decades, the unholy spirit and deceptive false teachings of a New Age/New Gospel have worked their way into an undiscerning and all-too-gullible church. Pastors and church leaders who years ago warned about New Age deception have hardly talked about it since. As a result, this New Gospel of the New Age is presently viewed by most believers as a long-ago past occurrence even as its overlapping terms, false teachings, and deceptive practices continue to creep into the church. Thus, while many church leaders and pastors talk about the cultural challenges of the day and the need for revival, they say almost nothing about our Adversary's spiritual schemes and devices. And while these same leaders write dramatic books and letters exhorting the church to be "courageous," to "speak out," and to "not be silenced," they have been effectively silenced themselves when it comes to spiritual deception in the church. Instead of exposing spiritual evil, contending for the faith, and fighting the good fight, they often advocate, endorse, or turn a blind eye to the very things they should be confronting.

"At 11:40 p.m. on April 14, 1912, the RMS Titanic-the biggest, grandest ship of its time-collided with an iceberg on its maiden voyage from Southampton, England to New York City. Less than three hours later the seemingly unsinkable ship did the unthinkable-it sank to the bottom of the North Atlantic Ocean. It has been well-documented how pride, false confidence, complacency, disregarded warnings, and general unpreparedness all played a part in the Titanic shipwreck. Those in charge had underestimated the physical danger in their midst. Sadly, today's professing church shares many of these same characteristics as it similarly underestimates the spiritual danger in its midst. The Titanic and Today's Church is the story of two shipwrecks. One took place over a century ago; the other is in progress and is happening today. The similarities are astounding as they compel us to become more aware of our Spiritual Adversary's schemes and devices (2 Corinthians 2:11), effectively "stand against" them (Ephesians 6:11), and "come out from among them" (2 Corinthians 6:17)"--

As former members of the New Age movement, Warren Smith and his wife Joy have spent over thirty years actively warning about the deceptive teachings of the New Age/New Spirituality that have progressively crept into the church. For the last ten years, to offset the spiritual heaviness that often accompanies this kind of ministry, Warren has studied, compiled, and arranged certain Scriptures around specific themes that provided he and his wife with encouragement and spiritual uplift. Almost as an afterthought, these personal studies became small booklets that were made available to share with others. Warren used the theme "through it all" and hoped the booklets would bring to people the same scriptural encouragement he and Joy have received from them.Now all the booklets have been combined into one book. May this volume of thematic scriptural inspiration comfort and strengthen you in your endeavor to keep pressing on-through it all.
