#904 I've heard that before ... lead to Christ through him ... I have my doubts about that ... his message isn't Biblically aligned so I fail to see how that is possible ... I would say this that those who truly seek HIM, will find HIM. I don't believe that is Rick Warrens doing ... it's more Christ seeing the sincerity ... they would have found Christ without RW's false teachings.

i don't have any problems with Scripter's assertion. God is sovereign. God can and does use any means He so desires in order to accomplish His pleasure, including the preaching of Judas Iscariot, and the sermon of a dumb ass to Baalam. Regrettably, that does not mean that Rick Warren or anyone else is above reproach. Lots of people were saved through the sermons and teachings of people of far less integredy and/or Orthodoxy than Warren currently possesses.

The scriptures are full of many such examples.

While i understand your point, "let's not go beyond what is written".
