Introduction

There is a phenomenal movement taking place within Christendom.  It has spread across denominational lines, and is comprised of many different churches. There are several names for what some of their religious philosophies are, and some terms to describe each of them by their activities. Not all of their new ideas are actually new, and some are sprung from positions that are the products of centuries old debates.

Many commentators have analyzed and classified them, and complete categorizations of their various parts, while they are interesting and have made a valuable contribution, do not want for more elaboration here.

Those who have proven astute in their power of scrutiny and reliable in their dedication are trusted to continue in their work.  The most general classification to gather the lot of them is used here as a departure point so that a primary doctrinal flaw which characterizes most of them may herein be treated.

They are emerging, and they are diverging.  They are prosperity, and they are missional, and they are contemplative, and they positivism, and they are sojourners, and they are big tenters; they preach personal wealth, new community, spiritual mysticism, positive thinking, inclusivism, and social justice.

In all, they are doing every sort of thing that resembles less and less biblical Christianity with each passing day.  All of them, though, despite the differing frays and braids and tassels and tastes, have one dastardly common denominator: they are The Raiders of the Messianic Kingdom.

The Raiders are usurpers of the real thrown of David upon which Messiah will reign (2Sam 7:12-16), and by their efforts, projects programs, and missions they will assist in producing a world community ripe for a false kingdom.  A kingdom of man; a kingdom of blood.
