His real problem is he thinks he's bigger than the Son.

Wow, that's a pretty big accusation to make. I'm assuming that you have heard him say that he's "bigger than the Son?" My Bible tells me that anyone who accuses the brethren falls under Judgment themselves. I'm sure you didin't hear Warren say that, and since you have spoken these words for all to see, and if they cause others to repeat your words to even more people, it could cause non believers to believe that Warren "thinks he's bigger than the Son." But wait, that would be gossip, and God warned us to watch the words of our mouths, and to "guard our tongues." Could be this is Why HE said it! IF, you didn't hear him say it, then you have slandered a brethren, and passed Judgment on him. Now, God will Judge you! See how that works? Shame on you!

FYI, I don't know much about Warren, except that he is a Christian, and now I know that he's taking the Gospel into a Communist Country. Could it be that God is sending him, because he has the reputation of being a "peace maker" and God sees that as the opportunity to get the Gospel into North Korea? God is bigger than Warren, and HE can direct Warrens words. HE said HE would put the words into our mouths when we preach the Gospel. Could it be that HE will do it again? We don't know what God's purposes are, and you should not speak against the brethren, for this reason!

I have never, NEVER heard Rick Warren mention Jesus when he's been on TV. He's ALWAYS plugging that book. "the changes in people's lives MY book has made..." The part I'VE played..." ME ME ME MY MY MY. The Lord is MIA. But then again so is sin, repentence, hell, the cross...

Some people only want their "felt needs" met. So the touchy feely warm & fuzzy, tell God where to kiss your boo boo type of gospel is very appealing. Of course it's not the true gospel of Christ. But if it puts behinds in the pews who cares? Just as long as some books, Bible covers, T-shirts, mousepads, calendars & coffee mugs get sold.

Oh & aren't YOU doing the very same thing you're complaining about? Ironic, ain't it?

FYI, I don't know much about Warren

See this is the problem. Some of us here know a great deal about Warren. Just bacause a man claims the name of Christ, has a big church and sells a lot of books does not mean he is a Christian.

Rick Warren preaches a cross less man centered Gospel. There is no denying that the gospel he preaches is hugely popular. But it is nevertheless the antithesis of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is therefore not a brother in the Lord.

Paul said: But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.Gal 1:8

False teachers come to us appearing as ministers of righteousness. Jesus warned us. Paul warned us. Peter warned us. Please do not assume any man is the real thing without searching the scriptures as did the Bereans
