I’m glad Dr. Mohler is speaking up. I see this as a trial of God’s people, a temptation to follow a false gospel. I believe Mr. Beck is using the language of evangelicals to garner their favor, and with it their power, be it through popularity/listeners/viewers, or financial gain, or some other endeavor. I do agree with much of Beck’s stated political philosophy, but as Mohler pointed out, agreeing on political philosophy doesn’t give anyone automatic credibility when it comes to spiritual matters.

Well stated. For a summary of the covert mormon theology found in Beck's speech Click Here

Your link was exxcellant in pin-pointing where Beck inserted Mormonism into his speech. But to those without understanding of Mormonism they would not at all pick up on those references. I even noted the covered wagon slide used as they presented America...”overtone” could easily have been understood to a Mormon.

I say again...caution with Beck on his beginning to preach about God....should he press the Mormonism slant much further he will loose the Christian community.

That's exactly right..... Becks political philosopy should not give him a platform to promote his religion, but he is walking a very fine line as the Mormon Leadership will in time require more of him in that respect...subtle though it will be at first...and just as we have witnessed at his rally. He has not yet swallowed the Mormonism doctrines in entire and prayerfully we will see him turn away in time. Otherwise he will loose the Christian communities support if he attempts to "preach" Mormonism.

This is what started to draw me into the web until I woke up, thanks to a few here on FR. He sounded so believable but yet something gnawed at me and I couldn't quite but my finger on it. Then when I listened to Brannon Howse it all fell into place. Now I have to try and wake up the rest of the misguided crowd.
