"I have yet to hear a critic of Rick Warren, and the Purpose-Driven Life for whom, in the end, it is not about the music."

The book is works-righteous. That is unscriptural. Scripture says that he who is Baptised and believes will be saved. Works do not save us. My pastor preaches against both the Purpose-Driven Life and the Left Behind series (which portrays a highly non-scriptural picture of the Second Coming).

No, it is NOT about the music, far from it.

My pastor preaches against both the Purpose-Driven Life and the Left Behind series (which portrays a highly non-scriptural picture of the Second Coming).

Oh, joy. Another pastor who defines himself and his congregation by what he's against. Just what Christianity needs. Another nattering nabob of negativity.

I would love to meet your pastor. He sounds like a wise man.
Please express my gratitude to him for teaching Truth.

I haven't found a bit of

works righteousness

in Rick's writings.

But .. "FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD"!!

And .. there is no scripture which says "he who is "Baptised" and believes will be saved.

Romans 10:9-10 says:

9 - That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 - For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
