Rick Warren again casts stones at those who would judge and discern while maintaining the distinctives of faith…
“Psychological needs, not theological creeds, make people strident & judgmental.”
“Traumatic hurts create dogmatic hearts.”
Really?
Perhaps Rick Warren has it backwards…according to Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, people who rightly judged false teachings were traumatized and murdered for being dogmatic about their Biblical faith.

Welcome to the year 2012—the much-publicized year of the Mayan writings that prophesy the End of the World as we know it. But what is our spiritual adversary really up to? And how does he attempt to accomplish his plan to infiltrate and overturn Biblical Christianity, replacing it with his “new” worldview—a worldview that will attempt to scientifically prove through quantum physics that “we are all God” because God is “in” everything—a new worldview that states that humanity is about to take a “quantum leap” into a newly evolved state of being (counterfeit of “born again”) that will usher in a “New Age” of world peace. The Devil’s “Christ” —Antichrist—will, of course, be the centerpiece of this counterfeit millennium—this New World Order.
Who would have believed even just a short time ago, that today’s professing evangelical Church would be buying into this New Age deception and exponentially imploding the way it is—literally catapulting a once biblical church into the heretical panentheistic teachings of the New Age? Read more

[35] Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst. [36] But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe. [37] All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out. [38] For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of him who sent me. [39] And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day. [40] For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.” (John 6:35-40 ESV)
I received a heads-up email from my friend Ken Silva today about this post. I read and reread the points on that page several times and, to be honest, I am convinced that the author has some basic theological problems. He does not understand God’s Sovereignty and because of this makes many category errors in his theological understanding, as you will see. The first and foremost one is that he takes verses like John 6:40 out of context to support his thesis, while ignoring the immediate context (which I gave you at the top of this post). As you can see, put back into context, John 6:40 is actually a subordinate clause of what Jesus was saying in that statement. The point of what Jesus was saying to those people who wanted to follow him, but he ran them off with hard preaching, was that those who are truly his disciples are those given to him by the Father and each and every one of them serve him as Lord in faith and each of them will be raised up on the last day.
We live in a time of timid tolerance and nauseating compromise with too many evangelical leaders scared of their own spiritual shadows. Influential pretending to be Protestants in the Southern Baptist Convention like Rick Warren and Beth Moore consider the Church of Rome as a Christian denomination.
I’ll look forward to them trying to prove their asinine assertion. Apprising Ministries now brings you the proper Christian perspective in this post concerning this despicable synagogue of Satan, which anathematized the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Apprising Ministries shows you what SBC Bible teacher Beth Moore claims God gave her a vision to see the Church “as Jesus sees it.” See here what she claims was a part of it.
In direct opposition SBC spiritually cowardly compromisers like Beth Moore and Rick Warren Apprising Ministries is pleased to bring you the words of a real man of God in this piece concerning Satan’s best front for the Kingdom of God.
Apprising Ministries points you to Tim Challies’ review of Driscoll’s new book on sex. O wait; or is it about marriage? Well, Tim explains in his review and you’ll find the link here.
(AFP) VATICAN CITY — Pope Benedict XVI has founded the first structure in the United States to encompass disaffected Episcopalian Anglicans who wish to join the Roman Catholic Church, the Vatican told AFP on Monday.
…The Episcopal Church is the official American branch of the Anglican Communion in the US. Converts who join the new diocese, called “The Chair of St. Peter”, will be full Catholics and will owe allegiance to the pope.
Informed sources estimate that initially around 100 priests and 2,000 faithful — out of the 2.3 million Episcopalians in the United States — will make the switch to the Catholic Church.

Apprising Ministries is one the few outlets where you hear the truth, no matter how painful it is. Right now cringing compromisers like the SBC’s Beth Moore and Rick Warren are advancing that God’s vision for the Church includes the Roman Catholic Church and it is part of the Body of Christ.
Since nothing has changed in the doctrines of the RCC concerning soteriology and its condemnation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, common sense tells you Moore and Warren are at odds with, not only the ostensibly Protestant SBC, but with the Protestant Reformers. Make the time to follow the evidence in this well documented article; if you really want to know the truth.
With an able assist from the prince of preachers Apprising Ministries shows you the antedote to all this sickeningly sinful ecumenicism going on with pretending to be Protestant Southern Baptists like Rick Warren and Beth Moore in this post.
