In recent years a number of ancient heresies have begun sweeping through the church again, deceiving thousands, even sidetracking whole movements. These are the very same deceptions that tried to seduce the first century church, which much of the New Testament was written to combat. They gain inroads by the most subtle, seemingly innocent ways but quickly begin to erode the very foundations of Christianity to the point where those who continue in them are actually "severed from Christ" in the very way that the Scriptures warn this will happen.
