I'm not backing off from anything, least of all you.
I don't pretend to judge Rick Warren's heart but I can judge what he does with God's Holy Word. When Biblical truth is forfeited for man's benefit and man willingly drives the faithful away for not adhering to the untruth, apostasy is alive and well and rearing its ugly head.
If the word is too harsh for your tender ears, I suggest you fasten your seat belt. The battle for Christ's church will get much worse.
Take a long look at prophecy. This should really come as no shock to you. Apostasy (Gee, I said it again) will not arrive with lights and sirens. You know the warning of the wolf in sheep's clothing.
I guess you expect the wolf to wear a scary suit and badge identifying himself as such.
Gee, and I was told by somebody that nobody is accusing Rick Warren of apostasy.
You must be nobody.
I just checked and it appears tht the last time you even quoted one single verse of God's Holy Word to back up anything you have said on this forum was November 22, 2004
That being said, I'd have to conclude that H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-S-Y is alive and well and rearing it's ugly head.
