you got it! Here's Lighthouse Trails take:

In [The book The New Christians], Jones degrades the authority of Scripture several times in the book. A theme for that book would go something like this:
Emergents say they believe in truth, but they define it as something that is always changing and being refined, can never be grasped, and enfolds all beliefs, except the ones that insist there is only one truth.

You would be appalled at how EVERY denomination is taking these kind of soft talking charlatans seriously... and bringing in their false doctrine.

The Bible told us this would happen—the great falling away.

Thanks for the link to Lighthouse Trails. I’ve been reading their material recently for the same reasons- alarm at what the emergent group is doing, and how it’s come in behind so many people’s backs. Everyone needs to be made aware of this movement. It may be attractive to some, but certainly not in a Bible-based way. It’s a cop-out.
