Just reading through replies ... .

"While I don't agree with some of what Warren does and says, I disagree with you here. While I cannot know his heart either way, nobody but God really knows. But my comment was in reference to how Christians on this forum treat each other."

As with others, it's not so hard to have a pretty good idea as to what's in a person heart. Their BEHAVIOR reflects what is in their heart/mind - verbally and through action! Surely you can see that with Christ and Saddam Insane , Clinton, Polosi ...? .

They all claim to be "Christians" but what they advocate (verbal) and how they lead their lives (actions) ... leaves one wondering. The same is going on here with Rick Warren. RW has ISSUES and his Scripture twist isn't "good news".

During 40 days I remember seeing and hearing Rick Warren on tape talking about the different versions he used. It seemed he was a little concerned with it but I cannot remember his exact justification. Rick Warren has little to offer me, but obviously, from what I've seen with my own eyes, has something to offer others. His book helped lead my nephew to Christ and I can't condemn Warren for writing in a style that reached my nephew.
