Faithful and Unfaithful Ministry Contrasted 2 of 3 (Micah #7)

A thundering example of Reformation preaching firing the gospel gun into the vitals of ecclesiastical Antichrist.

In enumerating the characteristics of unfaithful ministers (from Scripture) Price unmasks the Pope ('that Antichrist, that man of sin and son of perdition, that exalteth himself in the Church against Christ, and all that is called God,' WCF 25:6) and Billy Graham as prime examples of deception and unfaithfulness in the visible church (as to essence) today.

He points out how Arminianism in doctrine and worship (as well as a host of other sins) are exemplified in these two public figures (as well as in the Romish harlot [who rides the civil beast, Rev. 17-18] in general, along with her harlot daughters [the backsliding 'Protestant' churches]). One example of egregious apostasy is seen in the fact that Billy Graham sends his 'converts' into liberal churches (which deny the inspiration of Scripture), into that 'masterpieces of Satan' (Cunningham) the Roman Catholic church, and even into to Jewish Synagogues (which deny Christ was the promised Messiah).

Price also defends the right and duty of private judgement from Scripture (and the writings of the Reformers), while proclaiming the necessity of separation from unfaithful ministers and ministries (with help from George Gillespie, Samuel Rutherford and James Renwick).
