From the Christian Post:
Just two months ahead of the November presidential election, Pastor Rick Warren said Sunday that Christians should gain courage and not apologize for voting in accordance with their worldview.
"You don't need to apologize for voting for a Christian worldview which stands up for the sanctity of life, the sanctity of sex and the sanctity of marriage. You don't need to apologize for that because everybody votes what they believe," Warren told thousands of Saddleback Church attendees at the launch of a new sermon series.
The Southern California pastor said those three issues (life, sex, marriage) are non-negotiables for Christians. While they may disagree on the economy or health care, what believers must be firm on is protecting the unborn, viewing sex as holy, and protecting traditional marriage.
"If you call yourself a Christian, you need to line up with what God says is the original intent of all three of these things," he preached.
As if he just now realized it.
There are some things that deserve apologies. This is one of them, Rick:
Didn’t Pastor Rick Warren “bless” Buckwheat’s Immaculation ceremony in 08?
I think this is “above his paygrade...”
Didn’t he sign a “let’s all be friends” pledge with local muslims and one of the tenets of the pledge was that “muslims and Christians worship the same God”?
Even a broken watch is right twice a day.
It’s hard to tell where Ricky is coming from. Sometimes he sounds like a Christian, and other times he sounds like a Democrat.
I offer a quiet prayer of thanks to Chick-fil-A’s CEO and the American citizens brave enough to stand up to liberal elites...
Yea, this guy is all over the place. Just follow the Bible & be consistent. Not ole Rick. Rick needs a meeting with Chuck Baldwin to get straight.
Just goes to prove that these issues are basic to a believing Christian of any denomination.
When Obama establishes policies that rip into the religious faith and consciences of any Christian denomination, he assaults all of us.
Don’t waste my time with Rick Warren. He is not a Christian.
I’m sorry. Rick Warren is a big, fat, POS. Any Christian who listens to/follows him IMO is in for a world of hurt come judgement day.
I’m still apologizing for buying one of this heretic’s books.
I know what you mean, unfortunately.
