"Here is the point:
If you believe the following, Rick Warren says you are just as bad as a Muslim fundamentalist, and that you are narrow and legalist."
Read the context of the statement. He is talking about separation because of fear of the world. That separation is pharisaism. We are told to go into the world to preach, heal, set at liberty and restore. You can't do that with a covenant of don'ts and fear. What we have in Christ and protected in us by the Holy Spirit he is saying don't hide go out and be lights and share it with the world.
Fundamentalist do not fear the world.
That is a hateful statement for Rick Warren to make and one that is made out of malice because it certainly is untrue.
My very good friend Alan S. leaves at 6 a.m. to go to Uganda with Pastor Stark, founder of Madison Baptist Church, and founder or East Africa Missions.
He has a thriving business, and as far as the world would look at it and see, he looks foolish for going. He has everything a man could want or ask for, and yet he as a fundamentalist is going half way around the world to do all he can to help spread the Gospel and minister to people in need.
The sterotyping that Rick Warren does against Christians is divisive, and it's not based in reality.
People ought to wake up and realize that it's not the Gospel according to Rick Warren.
Isn't that exactly what Rick Warren forces you to sign?
