to provide any teaching on the blood of Jesus. The blood is the only way to have our sins washed away and to deny the blood is apostasy. The book of Acts 20:28, "to feed the church of God, which He hath purchased with His own blood." (KJV) Jesus purchased salvation for those who follow Him with His blood, and those churches, which deny that blood, are apostate. Some denominations have gone as far as to remove any hymn that refers to the blood from their hymnal. To say that the blood of Jesus is unnecessary is the reject all the suffering of Jesus from His beating to His death on the cross.

One of the biggest apostate teachings is the one about homosexuality and that God approves of such a lifestyle. The Bible is very specific about homosexuality being an abomination before Him. In the Old Testament law, the penalty was death. The cities of Sodom and Gomorrah where destroyed for their perversion and even went as far as to demand the guest of Lot, who where angels, for sex. The book of Romans condemns this perversion as a sin. In addition, the little book of Jude teaches that the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah are an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

This is just a sampling of the apostasy in many churches today. There are more but space prohibits the discussion of all of them. A thorough reading of the Bible can lead one to find the others.
