This is an article about Marcion, one of the heretics in the second century AD. He had a view on Scripture that is unfortunately also held by many people today. In a certain sense we can call him the father of Biblical criticism.

This article is about the signs of the times, and specifically about apostasy in the end times. The author also discusses truth and deception, and heretics in the church.

Throughout the history of the church, heretics often protested against orthodox confessions on the ground of the so-called "non-scriptural language" of the orthodox creed. They pointed out that phrases such as “of one essence with the Father,” and “one substance with the Father” were not to be found in Scripture. Heretics often used the argument “no creed but the Bible” precisely so that they could use biblical language to evade biblical truth.
