dangerous theology - (must read)
The "One Law One People" Teaching (aka 2 House, or "2 Sticks") is a very dangerous heresy that is plaguing our movement. ALL LEADERS MUST BE FAMILIAR WITH THIS DESTRUCTIVE TEACHING AND BE READY TO CONFRONT IT WHEN YOU COME ACROSS IT IN THE CONGREGATION. NOTE: "Not IF, but WHEN you come across it." CLICK HERE for the full white paper on this issue.
black nationalism - black replacement theology
Another dangerous false teaching, which is really not new, is a form of Replacement Theology that preys on the African American Christian Community, known as "Black Nationalism" and Black Hebrew Israelite Movement. In late 2008, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) described as black supremacist what it called "the extremist fringe of the Hebrew Israelite movement". It wrote that the members of such groups "believe that Jews are devilish impostors and ... openly condemn whites as evil personified, deserving only death or slavery".
As most African-Americans cannot trace their roots farther back than the days of U.S. slavery; often this community is ripe to hear that they are the "True Israel"; and anything else is just a "conspiracy" of the white man. There is even a local congregation here in Cleveland that is promoting this theology, and it has affected some former members of Tikvat. Leaders must be aware of this dangerous theology.
