DOWN SYNDROME ABORTIONS (Friday Church News Notes, June 13, 2025, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - The following is excerpted from “Scotland’s shame,” The Bridgehead, May 30, 2025: “According to a 2013 study, almost 99 percent of people with Down syndrome report being happy with their lives; 96 percent like how they look; 97 percent like who they are. While rates of mental illness, loneliness, and chronic misery are at all-time highs across many Western countries, people with Down syndrome are a happy exception. Despite that, babies with Down syndrome are being systematically targeted and killed in the womb.. see full report

Education on Discerning Music Styles - June 10
Few things are more dangerous doctrinally, philosophically, and spiritually to a Bible-believing church than contemporary Christian music and contemporary worship music. It is at the heart of the blending and merging that is creating the end-time, one-world “church” which will come into full bloom in the day of the Lord. Contemporary worship music is a bridge to extremely dangerous things.
The victory is not merely “keeping the hymnal.” The victory is in proper, ongoing education for the entire assembly. Tradition and ignorance will not do.
The Satanic Attack on Sacred Music consists of a textbook and a video series with about 18 hours of teaching, packed with photos, graphics, audio and video clips. One previewer commented, “The series is broad .. see full report

ATTEMPT TO PERFORM BREAD WAVING RITUAL ON THE TEMPLE MOUNT (Friday Church News Notes, June 6, 2025, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - Levites associated with the Temple Institute attempted to perform a ritual on the Temple Mount on Saturday, May 31. Consisting of waving two loaves of bread, the ritual was interrupted by Muslim police. The Returning to the Mount movement said, “We salute the activists who renewed the Temple service for the first time in 2,000 years. Renewing the priestly service and the offering of sacrifices on the Temple Mount is the only solution to end the multi-front war and bring back the hostages. We call on.. see full report

Northern Fundamental Baptists Today - June 5
The following is excerpted from The History and Heritage of Fundamentalism and Fundamental Baptists, www.wayoflife.org -
Another destructive element at Highland Park Baptist Church, Chattanooga, Tennessee, under the leadership of Pastor Lee Roberson was the no “criticism” policy.
Dr. Roberson often said, “Critics are a dime a dozen,” and there is plenty of truth to that, but without godly discernment and testing, sin and error go unrecognized, unchallenged, and uncorrected.

A Tennessee Temple professor said, “We don’t want anyone around here who is negative and has criticism for the school” (Wigton, Lee Roberson: Always about His Father’s Business, 99).
We agree wholeheartedly that criticism can be wrong and dangerous. I have often said that it is easy to sit in a church and criticize what others are doing, but the first question that needs to be asked is what am I doing to build things up? Churches are frail.. see full report

DESPERATE TIMES FOR INDEPENDENT BAPTIST CHURCHES (Friday Church News Notes, March 4, 2011, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - Over the past 30 years we have seen dramatic changes among independent Baptist churches. Everywhere I travel for Bible conferences, pastors tell me about churches in their areas that have capitulated to the contemporary philosophy and are now enemies of what they used to stand for, or they no longer exist. Consider Akron Baptist Temple of Akron, Ohio. It was founded in 1935 by Dallas F. Billington. By 1949, the church claimed 10,000 members and built a 2,800-seat auditorium. (Obviously most of the “members” were absentee, which was typical of the Quick Prayerism program.) In the 1960s, the church boasted the title “the world’s largest Sunday School” with high days of more than 5,700. In 1978, a 4,000-seat.. see full report

Lonnie Frisbee
Lonnie Frisbee and the Jesus People Movement - May 28 - See full report for introduction.
Lonnie Frisbee (1949-1993) further illustrates the frightfully shallow nature of many of the Jesus People “conversions” that formed the foundation of the contemporary praise music movement. Frisbee turned to “Jesus” through LSD trips and began to receive “prophecies” while high on drugs. On his own authority the teenage Frisbee baptized a group of drugged up hippies at Tahquitz Falls after reading the Gospel of John to them and painting a picture of “Jesus” on the rocks. Later, in the same place while on an acid trip, he had a “vision” that God had called him to preach the gospel to multitudes.
In a video documentary on Frisbee, David DiSabatino observes that many of the Jesus People conversions involved drugs. “One of the ironic twists of the 60s was that many openly stated that drugs, LSD in particular.. see full report

The following report documents the great changes that have occurred among fundamental Baptist churches since the 1990s and how that a change in music is always involved. --
