Is Your doctrine Corrupt? Pastor Joseph Clark



This is going to be a short article. Why? It does not take a lot of space or words to define corrupt doctrine. We live in a world today with a massive list of Christian denominations and independent churches. The fact of the matter is that Christ was irreligious. He came to do away with the legalistic system of religion and reveal the New Covenant between Man, Woman, and God, with Jesus as the mediator. His fundamentals were very clear:

“Jesus answered,

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

- John 14:6

“there is slavaiton in no one else, God has given us no other name under Heaven, by which we are saved."

-Acts 4:12

“Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.”

- Romans 10:9-10

He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’[a]; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

- Luke 10:27

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

- John 13:34-35

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,”

-Matthew 28:16-20

“Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy,[a] drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.”

- Matthew 10:8

So, what is our doctrine? What is our set of beliefs held and taught by us? To accept Christ Jesus as our Lord and Savior in accordance with his Gospels, and to Glorify God in accordance with his Gospels.

These are the basic fundamental Christian belief and purpose.

God is our authority. The Bible is the authoritative standard. We write and read a seemingly limitless number of books, videos, articles, etc. to celebrate and fascinate, and fixate on, God. God the Father, God the Son (Jesus), God the Holy Spirit. But there truly is only one book that we need. The Bible. The Bible is how he speaks to us and commands us. All the answers that we need related to knowing about God, knowing God, and knowing how we relate to God and to one another, are found there.

So, what is corrupt doctrine?

Anything that deviates from, changes, adds to, misinterprets, or distorts, Christ’s way, truth, and life.



Christ’s salvation is basic and simple enough for a child to understand, let alone the rest of us. However, it has a depth that can occupy a lifetime of study and reflection. There is enough study in The Bible in it’s true form to know God. To add to the Bible or alter it is to be rejecting that it is inerrant. - JC
