So does this mean McLaren is now a follower in the Oprah Winfrey church?
McLaren is not following Oprah, but there certainly are vibes in common. The New Age Movement is so wide open, very difficult to pin anyone of them down and say they are the same as someone else. But the underlying philosophy is very similar.
Oprah Winfrey's church + Brian McLaren's church = Satan's church.
Anyone who denies Christ as The Way, and denies Penal Substitutionary Atonement (Christ died on the cross to pay for our sins - Mclaren calls the cross "false advertising for God" and endorsed a book, by Alan Jones, which called Substitutionary atonement a "vile doctrine" and "cosmic child abuse")...is a member of this above-mentioned church.
