I Believe in the Coming Apostasy - 2 Tim 3:1-5;

Due to a technical problem the first few minutes were lost. Here
is a summary of those introductory remarks to the sermon.
- Dr.
Foraker read 2 Tim. 3:1-5 and 10-17
- Apostasy
defined - “fall away from” or “depart from”
to turn away from a true profession to a denial of the faith.
-Apostasy is a deadly doctrine that is overlooked today.
-Apostates depart from the faith, but not from the visible church
-2 Corinthians 11:3-6 is being read as the audio starts.
