When the persecution comes, one of the more difficult aspects real Christians will have to deal with is the large shift of 'religious' leaders joining the enemy.

Will he endorse and speak out for the inclusion of open fornicators? open adulterers? open drunkards?

I find it fascinating that the Islamic State treatment of faggots is more Biblical than that proposed by “Christians”.

The day is coming, sooner than many of you think, when you will be sent to a re-education camp for any criticism of homosexuality, transgenders, pedophilia, licentiousness and a laundry list of other things.

Christianity Today has been pretty much a cotton candy publication for a while that discusses deep issues such as which of the Veggie Tale characters is coolest.

Homosexuals have always been accepted by Christianity.

Whats being called for here is acceptance of their deviant lifestyle. A very different thing.

Either the Bible is the Word of God or it is not. If it is, follow it. If it is not, then is there no God, is someone else God? If there is no God to follow, then you are reduced to following man. How did that work out for those who followed Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo, Mao, Stalin, et al? For anyone who brings up the “excesses” or “evil done in the name of Christianity” I can only point out those things were done contrary to the Scripture, not at its bidding. All of them, without exception. Those who would say otherwise are either ignorant of Scripture or intentionally misleading. If you do not follow God, you follow a man who follows the Prince of this World. Your own heart is your guide and you are in huge trouble.

I hear that “Biblical Editors” are working overtime to get the Word consistent with this new and “more enlightened” understanding of what God really meant in earlier Biblical texts on this subject....

Which is why we shun them now. Case in point: Rob Bell. I used to like him, but after his swing into universalism, I got rid of all his stuff and won’t listen to him again. He’s coming to speak in town and I’ve had several friends ask me to go and I refuse and explain why. They say, “he doesn’t say that stuff anymore”.

Doesn’t mean he doesn’t still believe it. A religious leader who falls should pursue a new career, not try to stop saying the offensive things he believes.

For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord. Jude 1:4

21"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. 22 "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' 23"And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.' Matthew 7:21-23

Concern? Try outrage.

Matthew 3:12 “His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

Any “Christian” who calls for full acceptance of unrepentant, practicing homosexuals, aka sinners, is preaching heresy. Fire, meet chaff.

May the Lord protect us and keep us clear headed in this time of great deception!

All these supposedly evangelical Christians who say they accept the authority of the Bible but believe the church should accept homosexuals who are in a committed marriage...when a gay member of their church moves in with his boyfriend before getting married, are they going to put him under church discipline?

11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. 12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; 13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. (Jude 11-13)

Unsaved. "Twice dead" means they are destined for the second death, the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:14,15)

“He is acting in good faith and is, I think, on the right track.”

Acting in good faith? Isn’t that like relying on your own understanding?

Wow. This is very, very sad. I knew Christianity Today began to lean left some time ago as evidenced by their almost daily injection of homosexual articles in their online site, but now Campolo?

Things are getting really serious now as God is undoubtedly separating the wheat from the chaff. Let all know that Tony Campolo and Christianity Today now stand in direct opposition to the inerrant wWord of God.

May they repent before they face eternity.
