Pope Francis And Rick Warren To Unite For Global Chrislam Conference
The coming One World Religion grows in strength daily
“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4
On Monday, November 17, 2014, Pope Francis will host a global ecumenical conference featuring Muslim leaders, pagans, and Chrislam founder Rick Warren from Saddleback Church in California. The official website says that the Colloquium is sponsored by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and co-sponsored by the Pontifical Council for the Family, the Pontifical Council for Inter-religious Dialogue, and the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of Christian Unity.
The conference will be held Nov. 17-19 at the Vatican, and is expected to feature more than 30 speakers from over 20 countries. According to the Catholic News Service, those of the Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist, Hindu, Jaina Shasana, Taoist and Sikh religions will be present, as well as Roman Catholics and professing Christians. Note the high number of professing pagan religions that will be represented there. The Pope doesn’t care what you believe as long as you follow Rome.
The Complementarity of Man and Woman: An International Colloquium is a gathering of leaders and scholars from many religions across the globe, to examine and propose anew the beauty of the relationship between the man and the woman, in order to support and reinvigorate marriage and family life for the flourishing of human society.
But beyond it’s stated purpose, the real reason for the global confab is to continue Pope Francis’ work of merging all religions into the One World Religion mentioned in the book of Revelation. Any excuse for a get together is fine, so long as all religions agree to lay down before the Vatican and get in line behind the Pope.
Last year, Anglican priest and close friend of Pope Francis Tony Palmer gave an impassioned plea to Kenneth Copeland’s church to “return home to Mother Rome”, only to die mere months later in a mysterious motorcycle accident.

Any doubts "Christians", we are in the closing hours of the "last generation"? "The Great Whore on the scarlet Beast" arises!
Amen
Amen!!! Harold personally I believe we are at least 2 yrs or more into the 7 yr. tribulation. I just pray more open their eyes and get it right with Jesus before it is to late.
The seven year peace treaty with Israel has not happened yet. My understanding is that treaty will start the seven years.
I agree. Daniel 9:27 states “He shall CONFIRM THE COVENANT with many for one week:” Note he “confirms” with the idea of “making strong again” or “to strenghthen” a prior existing COVENANT”. This does not need to necessarily to be a “peace treaty”. I believe this is the revival of the Temple sacrifices of the Mosaic Law reinstated. Notice it says: He shall confirm “THE” covenant–one familiar with MANY people for 7 years, but breaks “IT” after 3 1/2 years.
The tribulation begins after the rapture with the opening of the 1st seal By Jesus. It’s coming fast!
Jesus’ kingdom is not of this world. Jesus told the Samaritan woman that neither in this mount nor yet in Jerusalem will men worship. Stephen told the council in Jerusalem that God does not dwell in temples made with hands. The New Jerusalem comes down from God out of heaven. Jesus departed the temple (formerly His Father’s House) and told the Jews that THEIR HOUSE was left to them desolate.
Neither is the kingdom in things that sustain our existence in this world (meat and drink) The kingdom is righteousness peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Please read again Daniel 9:24 – 27. It has nothing to do with antichrist — but all to do with Jesus Christ.
You have been parroting the Ashkenazi lie of Khazarian supremacy.
Perhaps you should check the other side of the rumour before spreading malicious lies against your brother..

Rick warren does not surprise me nor does kenneth copeland. I do not watch copeland ministries. I am surprised that Joel osten is not with them. I am sure other names are missing. We are in the last of the last days and things are rapping up. Saint of the most high God of heaven hold onto your faith in Jesus NO MATTER! Some of us may be killed because of the truth we hold for Jesus in our hearts. Don’t these men know what is ahead of them? Hell awaits them. I really FEEL FOR there followers.
Pat,I know what your saying about their followers but I’m still what they consider a babe in the Lord and I know what is going on because I made it my business to know! So why don’t they have eyes to see and ears to hear? They should be aware of the signs of the times being Christians…they don’t live in a bubble. They like to have their ears tickled I guess. Satan has some spell over them,they need our prayers for sure!
The truth will only set you free if you recognize truth.

No doubt at all!!
Rick Warren categorically denies this, said it started years ago on the internet and no matter how many times he has tried to debunk this lie, people still keep circulating it. We have taught some of his small group studies in the Church we attend, and watched his live streaming services, and he has never said anything like this he is being accused of. It’s sad that so many people believe this without ever checking the facts, or going to his website and asking him personally. He has a website that you can e-mail him personally. But we should not be surprised, the Apostle Paul was accused of many things falsely too, and so was our Lord Jesus. Truth will always prevail, no matter how much the enemy tries to use innuendo and falsehood to make us believe otherwise. God bless Rick Warren!
Really? Because his name is all over the place as a speaker at this conference.
I believe that what Keith said relates to Chrislam not Warren appearing at the conference. There is no such thing as Chrislam – never was never will be. It is something made up to bring attention to an ill-informed website.
Please don’t attempt to associate and compare Rick Warren to the Apostle Paul. Warren is NO Apostle Paul by any stretch! Paul would categorize Warren as a “false brethren” preaching “another gospel”. Gal.1:8-9
The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has him scheduled as a speaker on Nov. 18th
Keith, you wrote – “It’s sad that so many people believe this without ever checking the facts”
Here’s the facts, I always check, and um, YOU DIDN’T. (and that’s sad) HAHAHAHA
Hypocrite much? http://www.humanum.it/en/speakers.ht
Umm, you wrote “Rick Warren categorically denies this, said it started years ago on the internet and no matter how many times he has tried to debunk this lie”
But this is scheduled for next week… And Rick is speaking at it… So are you A. A shameless liar? B. A crackhead? or C. A shameless lying crackhead?
You wrote, “Truth will always prevail”
Yes, yes it will, often sooner rather than later and much to the shame, and eventual eternal destruction in hell fire, of people like you and your idol shepherd, and even little Ricky “the antichrist” Warren too. Unless ye repent ye shall all likewise perish.
Funny how that works, eh, liar?
I no longer believe Rick Warren. So when he says he isn’t, he probably is as far as I’m concerned.
@Aaron David: What kind of attitude are you displaying?
Jesus spoke with sinners, why shouldn’t Rick Warren?
Yes! so true!
There are many jealous preachers and false prophets, like the writer of this article. The devil is working very strongly in his heart to write and publish such lies!
Keith
Nice to see someone following a Biblcal standard in defending a brother.
I wish some of these so-called know-it-alls would follow the Biblical example of Mathew 18:5
2For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
If you have not goine to your brother and discussed his so-called faults then how can you call yourself a Christian?
That IS the Biblical standard.
The mother church met on the Mt of Olives in the 1st century. Jesus called it the city that set on a hill. it was written that the Law will go forth from Zion.(not Rome).

This is the last sign before Christ can return:

Wicked people can try their hardest to create a one world religion where everyone gets along. However they will never be able to defeat the truth of the word of God.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6)
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. 1 Timothy 2: 5, 6)
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)
I honestly cannot imagine how anyone can believe this tripe. It seems to be part of the attack on Rick Warren that has been discredited years ago. Chrislam is a religious group in NIGERIA. It is an attempt to stop the violence, and, yes, it’s false. But to use innuendo and insinuation to besmirch the reputation of a man like Rick Warren is just plain despicable. This is FALSE, and harmful. It causes divisions where no divisions exist. Mr. Warren believes in the Bible, and he reaches out to people of all faiths. Why? To draw them to Jesus, not to fatten his pockets like this false group, NTEB! Please stop this horrible campaign. And, you gullible and naive people who believe it, grow up! Read reliable sources. If you, Geoffrey Grider, are doing this on purpose, then you are the one who will face the judgment. Heaven help you!
NTEB has documented Rick Warren’s creation of Chrislam in great and accurate detail. Everything we have reported about him is 100% true and accurate. http://www.nowtheendbegins.com/blog/?s=Rick+Warren
Just because you repeat the lies over and over doesn’t make it true. Website “research” quoting website “research” is not research. That citation provides NO facts, just innuendo after innuendo.
Yeah and Russell Moore from SBC and N T Wright are there as well. What does this prove? I didn't even see Warren on the list. Please explain you reached the conclusion of "Chrislam."
This whole article is a lie and so is this website
Rick Warren and the Pope are messing around with the enemy and because they are not truly of them, they are in jeopardy of being beheaded one of these days. Christianity and Islam may be the term for Chrislam but what Muslims follow is Shariah and so the reading of the verses and thus the combining of them should actually be called Chrisriah. Covert Nazism is Wicked.
All one has to do is read Revelation, and then open your eyes, and look to see who and what groups are fullfilling prophecy in these last days.

Any attempt to bring various religions together under one overall organisation is bound to lead to great error. What is needed is to bring all humankind to Jesus. It does not matter a whit what believer or group of believers do this as it is not religions that save; not churches that save. Only Jesus saves. He is The Saviour of the world. He died for all humankind, but only those who come to The Father by the unadulterated Word of God, and then walk in His Ways, are thereby saved. As Jesus IS THE WORD OF GOD made flesh, the simplist way to come into right relationship with God is to ask Jesus to be your saviour and then to walk in the Ancient Paths of Righteousness, guided and taught by The Holy Spirit.
God, forgive them for they know not, truly, what they do.
Two things to share… I the vision of a calling I received in broad daylight , wide awake… back in 1989 saw a "mega church" in a vision filled with people…all lost… because their pastor preached anything, and everything except… Christ and Him crucified ..and resurrected. I was appalled at the amount of people following this man and said as much out loud…. "Lord! He's not preaching the cross, your blood for the sacrifice for sin… someone must do something about this!!! the Lord said to me "YOU do something about it". secondly, and more recent, I had a dream where I saw people falling both backwards and pitching forward but, I didn't see what caused them to fall. I saw a man close up as if He were being strangled and the dream began to fade. But, as it faded I heard the Lord say…. "Hold onto your profession of faith"….and the dream was gone. Blessings and love in the name of Jesus.
NTEB: I understand your a Baptist, as I see it that the Baptist are also joining the Chrislam Religion.
To NTEB: Then you don’t know Baptist doctrine & beliefs (which are very Biblically scriptural) if that is what you think Baptist are doing. This thread is going nowhere fast with those who don’t know “The Truth” (which shall set you free) from their oatmeal.
Go to dwainmillerministries.com to hear a sermon about this that was preached 3-4 months ago!!! Could the Pope be the False Prophet? I can't believe this. Seriously. Wake up !
Nteb: I have a short list here who joining the One World Religion: Lutheran’s, Baptist’s, Episcopal’s. Mormons, Roman Catholic’s, United Methodist’s, Scientology, Kenneth Copeland, Russian Orthodox, Coptic’s,
You forgot James Robison
The Southern Baptist church (the USA’s largest Protestant denomination) are a group of believers who have traditionally preached against One World Order & its evils. I don’t know where a few posters on that subject are getting their info which one could classify as mostly fiction. I’ve heard James Robison preach against One World Order and the almost 80 million USA evangelicals are as anti-One World Order as any group.
Ah yes, ye ole Ecumenical Church arises from the pits of hell, controlled by ?
You know who, S,-A-T-A-N. .?
If Rick Warren is getting together with the Pope ,he is wrong in doing that. The Pope is for Gay marriage,God of the Holy bible says No, not acceptable at all, this is evil and agaisnt God ~~ and he’s for other evil things also , and if you want to meet the Pope you have to Promise to Bow ,and kiss his ring finger, or you can’t meet with him , and Joel Osteen has met with the Pope so he had to bow, and kiss the Popes ring finger .I read the news about him meeting him ~~ you can read his meeting with the Pope at Christiannews.net or .com or go to ask.com type in box did Joel Osteen meet the Pope you’ll see he did ~~do your own research on meeting of th e Pope ~~ No one can meet him unless they bow , and kiss his ring finger , and by doing the kissing of the Popes ring you are saying the Pope is Sovereign, and Sovereign means you can do what ever you want ~~Supreme Ruler~~ also One who is King ~~Greatest in degree~Being above all others in character, importance~ excellence~Majestic ~Imperial~Princely~Monarchical~ Kingly~Cheif~Paramount~Principal~ Predominant~ the Pope is not any of these he is a Man not Holy at all ~~ the one who is~~ is Jesus~~ he is the one , and only King , and he is Sovereign Jesus is the one that can do what he wants !!! God is Ceeaning Churches ~~he is exposing the fake ones that we need to stay away from. Come Lord Jesus
That was very informative and very well put Carol!
sad and so sad.
Now the pope is saying evolution is compatible with Genesis.
So when Jesus spoke to the woman at the well or the woman taken in adultery he was out of line?
@Carol
You are stretching truth to claim all that you claim. Jesus followed the Jewish traditions as he was a Jew. So what is wrong with following a simple tradition?
There are no such thing as perfect churches; David was a man after God’s own heart but he was an adulterer, a murderer….
Abraham father of the faith was a liar. He lied about Sara. He said she was not his wife.
Each of us is responsible to God for our judgements. When we judge we are taking God’s job. He is not too happy about that.
““Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”” (Matthew 7:1–5)
You're nothing but a liar and a mindless bigot. Here's the Catholic News Service headlines. http://www.catholicnews.com/headline.htm The only purpose you serve is to show me who to unfreind for promoting your garbage.
No, it's true, here's the PROOF- http://www.humanum.it/en/speakers.html Which I guess means you are actually the liar, eh?
Aaron David She wasn't doubting the conference, she was calling bullshit on the "Lets all come together and be one big happy religion" Or perhaps the CONSTANT fear mongering that this site uses, or the LACK of actually citation to their claims. Or maybe because every article on this site can be put into one of the following sections. DO NOT GO OUT SIDE! Or THE END IS NYE! Or my personal favorite I AM PROVING WE CANNOT GET ALONG WITH EVERYONE UNLESS THEY AGREE WITH EVERYTHING I SAY. That last one I like to call the school yard bully, or as its called in politics Dictatorship 101.
Would you like to try again? Oh shall I shit all over yet another of your half assed defense for a site that is barely more reliable than The Onion when it comes to the lose term of FACT?
Joshua Echelon Smith I'm not defending the site, but Warren IS meeting t6here, right? Why? Because he's the Pope's puppy, a &^%&^% devil, that's why. hE'S AN ECUMENIST PIECE OF *^&t^&^, OK?
Zionism Verses The Bible – who is really “blessing Israel”?
http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Doctrines/Zionism/zionism.htm
Ah, you forgot to mention the mother of “christian” feminism, joyce mneyer, the worst false “prophetess” ever.
Joshua Echelon Smith Why can't people disagree without using the language that you use no one wants to read ugly language because everyone is not like you. Wash your mouth.
well said carolyn

There is only one way to spend Eternity with God in Heaven. It’s simple – http://howtosaveyoursoulandthoseofothers.com/
I agree with you Carolyn, some people are either immature or just act like they are 15 year olds, haven't grown up yet.
Do NOT listen to Rick Warren at all. He is a heretic and will confuse your mind. Check it out for yourself. He also promotes Hinduism:
We r living in end times…we need to wake up and know there is only one true God….His son died for us only way to heaven ….
The pope or any other living human is not the way
Globalists – masons/occultists/kabbalists/satanists in disguise..every single one of them.
What a piece of garbage this article is stating that Pope Francis has an agenda of one world relgion and many of you blindly take the bait hook, line and sinker. Here is who iniated the conference and why:
“Rev. Warren was one of 48 Christian ministers and scholars who signed an open letter to Pope Francis and the synod fathers in September, urging the assembly to defend traditional marriage, among other ways, by supporting efforts to “restore legal provisions that protect marriage as a conjugal union of one man and one woman.”

Binoy Thomas And yet another side liner that needs to be heard but can't contribute. Stick to the slide lines or get to the actual topic, other wise the only thing you are doing is being unproductive, and wasting bandwidth.
Why is it anybody sits down and has a conversation with somebody who is not of the same faith or religion its is considered "end of the world"? What happened to love you enemies?
No, it's called your neighbor….ju
Published 2006 by Justin Johnson…
The foundation of dispensational Bible study lies in the doctrine of God’s two-fold plan revealed in Scripture. The understanding of God’s two-fold plan contains the key to understanding God’s purpose in all of Scripture.
While all of Scripture is unified in its ultimate purpose in Christ, there is a need to rightly divide the word of truth to understand what is being said, by whom, and to whom (2 Tim 2:15).
Contrary to how publishers print our Bibles, the most important division in Scripture is not the division between the Old and New Testaments. The most essential distinction we can recognize in understanding our Bible is the difference between prophecy and mystery.
Prophecy – God’s plan for the earth
The subject of prophecy pertains to God’s revealed plan to reign and rule over the earth. This information includes the utilization of the nation Israel as the channel of blessing to the entire world (Genesis 12:2-3: Isaiah 2:2).
This information and detailed plan culminates in the Lord’s coming to earth where he will set up his kingdom in Zion for ever (Micah 4:7).
Zacharias sums up this body if information as consisting of what was spoken by the prophets since the world began.
“As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began” – Luke 1:70
Peter also taught this prophetic plan made known from the foundation of the world.
“Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.” – Acts 3:21
Mystery – God’s plan for the heavens
The subject of the revelation of the mystery pertains to God’s plan to reign and rule over the heavens (Rom 16:25, Eph 2:6). This information includes the utilization of a new creature, without national distinction or status (2 Cor 5:17, Gal 3:28).
This corporate body resides under the authority of Christ as the head – it is known as the Body of Christ (Eph 4:12, 1 Cor 12:27). This pan culminates in the Lord’s receiving of the saints to reign and rule in heavenly places for ever (1 Thess 4:16-17).
This information is summed up in the clear statement by Paul that it was not part of prophecy.
“Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,” – Romans 16:25
“And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:” – Ephesians 3:9
Rightly dividing the word of truth
Understanding this primary distinction in God’s plan for the earth in prophecy and God’s plan for heavenly places in the revelation of the mystery is the key to ‘rightly dividing the word of truth’ (2 Tim 2:15).
Rightly dividing which instructions pertain to the prophetic plan, from the specific information revealed in the mystery plan allows us to become wise knowing the will of the Lord (Eph 5:17). Well-informed soldiers are better equipped for battle, and well-informed saints are better equipped to please him who died for them (2 Tim 2:4).
As we recognize the two-fold plan of God we can also better recognize God’s ultimate purpose for all things, both in heaven and earth, to be in Christ.
“That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:” – Ephesians 1:10
Whereas ‘in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth’ the Bible rightly divided reveals God’s two-fold plan to ultimately reign and rule over the heaven and the earth.

Whether it is, or isn't; Rick Warren is a card carrying member of the Council On Foreign Relations (CFR) aka – The Illumnati, and he's a 33rd Degree Freemason. This is a documented FACT.
So where are the documents, Michael Barber?
People who say “That is a documented fact do so to make it sound like they KNOW but if it WAS documented why would you not make the documents known?
LOL – to what other conspiracy theories do you subscribe?
"Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols?" 2 Corinthians 6:14
Sorry folks, but it really doesn't get much clearer than that (unless you're an Apostate who picks and chooses what's "convenient" to your OWN way of how YOU think God should be glorified) Good luck with that on Judgment Day.
A one world religion and government has been in the making for THOUSANDS of years.
But is only alluded to happen during the “endtimes”. And guess what? All indications show we are living in the ENDTIMES!
So, hold on to your hat, you’re gonna be taken for the ride of your life!
Chrislam is HERESY and PAGANISM!! It is UNHOLY / UNGODLY!! "Seek Ye First the Kingdom of GOD and HIS RIGHTEOUS- Through Yeshua-Jesus Christ our Lord and SAVIOR, who is our KING of kings, LORD ( ADONAI ) of lords, HE is the True ALPHA and OMEGA, the FIRST and the LAST!! "TRUST in The LORD ( ADONAI ) with all Thine HEART!!
Most people having problems just with all this deception from Satan. All we need to do in our lives is ( Rev. 3:10) by obtaining salvation through Jesus Christ. But we tend to make our lives difficult trying to find out what the next move God has for us? We need to go back in our lives, when things were much simplier, and be obediate to God.
You will not no the day or time. It appears to be quite nuts into today's world so enjoy everyday of your life and don't worry about the end…amen!
This headline you used is misleading and divisive.

Why don’t you run upstairs and tell mommy you’ve been playing on her computer again, k?
I know it must be dark in that old basement you live in but do try to get out into the light of day once in a while. It will help get those nasty old cobwebs outta your mind so you can think more clearly ;P
Run along Joshy, the grown-ups are going to talk now.
All of this is of the DEVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Ricky, read II Corinthians 6:14-16.
My thought exactly.
http://www.jamesrobison.net/witnessing-the-miracle-jesus-prayed-for/, This link is the TRUTH behind the Kenneth Copeland/ Pope meeting, if anyone desires truth. As for accusing Rick Warren of promoting Chrislam, here's an interview with RICK WARREN, http://www.charismanews.com/us/32322-rick-warren-addresses-rumors-he-supports-chrislam. How about we quote Rick Warren before we ACCUSE Rick Warren. this site is going to be my topic, on how the devil is LIE !!
The word Vicar of Christ means Son of God , this is what the Pope Wears on his hat~( I know everyone has seen this word on his hat ~~ do your own research . I did that’s why I’m posting this ~~ The Pope is not the Son of God.The pope did not die on the Cross, and he can’t forgive sins either ~~ the pope is not holy , he is a man just because he is in the
Catholic Church doesn’t give him the title of Holy Father~ I believe , the Pope is the False Prophet in the Book of Revelation his fruits are not good .We will know them by their fruits ~~The only Holy Father is the God of Abrahan ~Isaac~ Jacob this is the Holy Father , he is the only one that can Forgive Sins ~~Creator of the Whole World , and all things ~~Jesus Christ is The One , and Only Son of God~ Holy ~~Sovereign ~The King. That is the truth too ~~the Whole truth , and nothing but the truth. I Love the truth it will set you FREE!!! JESUS SETS US FREE!! AMEN!
Deanna: Do you see what Satan is doing? He’s causing so many divisions in the truth, no one really know who they should believe, this causes people to give up on Jesus and Christianity. Instead believing in Pastors, we should be believing in God’s Scriptures. As God said, do not believe in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.
Where are all the atheists? They seem to be the only ones that tell the truth about religion, and exposes all the religious fanatics and all their delusions. Facts are not welcomed by end time bible crazies! None of you christians can agree on anything! Why would “God” give us a book written by ancient desert nomads? Christians, read your bibles, God is an not good!
Rob: It sounds like your more confused than christians? Because since your a atheist, your on a Pre-Tribulation web site, so are you confused about being an atheist? Why do not you show to us how inteligent you are and read the entire Bible, then prove us wrong?
Rob, Jesus says come and see that I am Good. Call on Him and he will show you, Believe and see!!!!
THE GREAT I AM—STILL IS!
Sure!
Jesus wants a Relationship with us, His death on the cross gave us the ability to have that, not a religion!! God hates religion
“Conspiracy theories” are what ignorant christians use to scare “sheepish” gullible people (christians) with no grasp of reality, and no education!
Rob: The different in us christians than being an atheist’s. We pray to God for Deliverance. You believe in nothing. As you say, God is nonsence, if we end up in heaven that good for us, if your right we still win, but your think in a small mind, So when God delivers us, you’ll lose!
Aaron David ^^^^^^
Many of you Christians speak of “truth”, but your so called “truth” is nothing of the sort, but lies sold to you by charlatans and hucksters! Lol gimme a break! Lol
Yes that’s correct, professing Christian is the right word, because no Christian community around the world will be a part of such a thing. No one has authorized Rick Warren to represent us. Rick Warren no way, not in million years…..
Jack Van Impe has warned of Rick Warren's activities for the past couple of years. Even Catholics prophesied that this Pope will be the False Prophet. Christians know what this means. God bless us for we will surely need it.
Never follow any man,,, only Jesus, there are a lot of false prophets on TV an in churches, that are trying to lead Christians astray.
This is the same deceptive spirit as the one fox news reported on about the "lost gospel". Claiming that Jesus was married and had children. The enemy knows his time is short, Don't let him trick you too. Endure like a Good Soldier for Jesus Christ
Ever since I was young, I always questioned the need for religion. With all the religions that predate Christianity, it just seems, through the research that I've done, that Christianity is a copycat type of religion. And there's no denying that because it's true. But yet Christians are hateful and feel that their religion is the only correct religion and everyone else is wrong. That's a problem that I see with Christians and Christianity itself. I do not believe for a second that any one religion is correct. Yes, we may want to believe in something greater than ourselves and that is absolutely true and apparent over the centuries but I do not believe that religion is needed. Call me crazy, call me insane, but leave me out of the religious scope. I am a free thinker and I think how I want and do what I want. When I die, I'll go into the ground. And if there's something on the other side, which I don't believe, then so be it. But I don't need religion. I don't need to be under the control of religion. When I lay down at night, all I have is me. Just me. When I wake up, all I have is me. That's all. Just me. When I'm alone in my home, it's just me. No one else cares for me better than myself. I know what's best for myself. There's me and that's it. And am I putting others aside or putting my boyfriend aside? No I am not. I'm just saying that no one else is going to take care of me when I go to sleep or wake up or if I die. God doesn't take care of my health nor my friends, I do. If I'm sick, I go to the hospital not God. If I buy a house, I buy it because I made the money to afford it. God doesn't buy houses, I do. If I get free groceries from someone, God didn't provide that food, someone else took their money and did that. So where is God in all of this? Does he really even exist? Somehow, we want to believe in something greater than ourselves when in fact it's only us. Just us in this great big universe. Nothing more and nothing less.
Tommy Lopez: Maybe you need to read God’s Scriptures. Mankind developed Religion to control mankind. But if you read His Scriptures Yeshua said, do not believe in men wisdom but in the power of God.
So you think you only go into the ground? What if your wrong? Because it sound like your assuming alot, with nothing to back it up?
Just maybe you’ll be resurrected in that body of your, and face Yeshua, then He’ll send you to a place of Torment forever and ever?
You say God does not provide you your food? Then you created the earth, who created the seeds for vegetables on your plate? Who created seed for grass, so cattle can eat the grass, so you can have meat on your plate, who created the cattle? Who created grass, so cow can eat to make milk for you to drink. Or do you believe in comes out of the vending machines only?
You say God does not take care of your heath? Since I was 10 years old I need to wear glasses to see more clearly, I had 20/50 vision, so for about 10 years ago, I was praying to God daily, because I wanted 20/20 vision, and I was tried laying the glasses on the bed, then forgetting they were their and sitting on them. So about 5 years ago, I woke up at 8:00 a.m. as usually put my glasses on my face, but I could not see out of them, so I washed them, again I could not see out of them, so I decided to see my eye doctor, I step outside of my house, and the 1st time since I was a child, I could see things very clearly. Went to my eye doctor, he tested both eyes, he said, he can not understand it, you have 20/20 vision. Since that time, every year my eye doctor checks my eye vision, its still the same vision 20/20 vision.
So who corrected my vision? If as you say, God can not do that for us. Maybe if one prays enough, your prayer will be heard?
well said!
Tommy,
Reading your post i see you have raised some great questions, most of them are questions that have echoed throughout all of history regarding meaning, suffering, worth etc.
Please note i am not able to deal with the extent of your questions and statements on this post, i just don’t have the space allocated.
The fact that you are bold enough to ask these big questions in itself shows you are indeed searching for truth, but may i be so bold to state that deep down you still aren’t satisfied you have. What other reason would bring you to a site such as this?
The bible has answers for all your above questions, not just feel good answers, but cold hard truth. Truth that makes us all as christians evaluate our lives on a daily basis, makes us realise how hopelessly lost we really are.
I extend an invitation to yourself, i myself was in the same position as you are, i doubted all of this and thought what i could see and feel could answer all my questions, the problem was it just raised more questions. I would love for you to email me and come on a search for truth, the only pre-requisite is that both you and myself leave every preconception at the door, and follow the truth wherever it leads us. Please note i myself took this challenge 2 years ago, and it was the most rewarding experience in my life.
Just remember that “The greatest hurdle to the truth, is assuming you already have it”.
Please email me on bstarchenko@hutchinsonbuilders.com.au, i look forward to joining you on this journey.
I extend this invitation to anyone else who reads this post. Take a leap of faith.
Christianity is for the entire world. I applaud Pope Francis for reaching out.
amen! It is only the Pope that can gather all church leaders and have a dialogue to embrace ones uniqueness in Christ, and the Pope is always welcome wherever he visits all over the world. HMMMM JUST A THOUGHT!
Michael Barber Is he a chupacabra too? And the Freemasons aren't what they used to be. They used to have standards, now anyone can pay dues, they don't get nearly as far if you pay dues though.
We will be raptured very soon !
I never had a dream like that, but I have experienced NO GOSPEL being preached in just about every 'church' I visited. Your dream is a reality these days.
Every 501c3 'church' is guilty of 2 Cor. 6:14!
I used to have a red 1991Alfa Romeo convertible……..loved it!
I am deeply distrubed by the idea of Pope Francis mingling with these other religious groups other than Christianity. Christianity is unique and there is religion as Christianity. In all other religions, when their leaders died, their religious dogma pretty much died. But in the case of Christianity, our leader rose from the dead and thus bore witness to the claim He had made while alive that He will rise on the third day which He did. In 2 Cor. 6:18 God says: “Come out of them and be separate. Then I will be your Father and you will be my children.” Christians are appointed by Christ to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We should not desecrate our religion on a platform common with toher religions. Because in our case, our leader is Almighty God. In the case of all other religions, their leaders are human beings. So absolutely there is no comparison.
Harold Beaver Green You haven't been to my church…..
Deanna Robbins One doesn't even have to read or qoute anything from the page you have provided. Pictures there tell the tale. I don't blame you for being blind. Prosperity Gospel is a powerful thing. Everybody needs "blessing"..errr…I mean money. It's not really a shame to be cheated by religion or preacher. They are professional salesman of ideology. That ideology is made to fit a wide variety of human phisical and spiritual needs. But it is a shame when you see that nice picture of your favourite preacher shaking hands with Satan's right hand and still remain cheated. Maybe you should consider wearing glasses.
Joshua Echelon Smith Chupacabra? Demonic spirits behind freemasonry, catholicism and prosperity gospel probably look like one. But most certainly DO WORK like one…murder that is. They lead souls into eternal damnation by buying them with dust, ashes, dust and ashes(money and pride), and fog(nice tell tale). Pretty cheap. Merchants of doom.
Stevie Borkuss I am a blood bought, Spirit filled, born again believer. I was praying in the Spirit in 2010, I went to the throne room. I was instructed by the Lord to study after Kenneth Copeland and those he studies after. i learned from the Lord not to judge anyone, that's his job. I regret posting on this page, I let my temper get the best of me. Wish you all the best , I'm done.
even satan can transform himself in to an angel of light ~~ Kennth Copeland is not a good person ~he is following after his father satan.kenneth copeland is selling his church to the pope~ and this is not of God ~~God Almighty of the Bible ~ did not tell you to follow K.C~~ not so ~ God can’t do evil ~ God is Love ~~he would never tell anyone~ including you ~~ to follow a wolf in sheeps clothing ~~ you are decieved greatly!!.follow Jesus , and have life eternal ~ don’t listen to satan he hates you~~he wants to destroy anyone he can . Stay away from the evil one~~ kenneth Copeland is not good !! I am using righteous Judgment as Godof the Holy Bible says for me to do ~~ so I don’t follow after evil~~ and be decieved Amen
Deanna Robbins D'aw and we all were just starting to become such great friends!
Hello children of the one true living God, please pray that you will be accounted worthy to escape the hour of temptation that is going to come upon the whole world. And pray that you will also be accounted worthy to stand in the presence of the Son of God.

If you are looking for truth, take a look at this pastor, Andrew Henriques, youtube. God bless.
Deanna Robbins Prove all things. "To the law and to the testimony! If they speak not according to this word there is no light in them." Copeland ministries is a con game. Signed- former Word/Faith pastor.
The same people who crucified Jesus,all for dominance to build there empires.
Following Jesus is about having a RELATIONSHIP with Him. That's what divides Christianity from all other religions. It'll always be up to us to seek the truth and know Who is the One.
So , you've examined the 'evidence' from what others have written in your researches and believed what others have said about Christianity being a 'copycat' .
You've chosen to believe 'them' but not in the authenticity of the Bible. Hmm.. Ok , that can be said of the Bible .. and many have stated that it was just written by man. But what of this 'Holy Spirit ' ? Is that real ? You'll only know for certain if you pursue the truth.
What of this Holy Spirit.. what of it.. or Him ?
I'll tell you , you'll never figure that question amongst many in your mind..by logic. If I were to tell you that we have as many neurological receptors in our belly as we do in our CNS.. would that surprise you ? It's true ! They're connected by the left vagus nerve. And what's in our belly ? Not our mind as that's in the CNS. What's in the belly is our spirit.. our inner most person of who we are. It's where so called intuition comes from.. gut instinct.. living waters .. the heart of man.
Learn to develop that.. and you might find out for certain if Jesus was being literal when He said "Blessed are the pure in heart , for they shall see God". To do that.. takes honest evaluation.. a measuring of the Laws of God to see if we are obeying them or not. None have nor can. That's where the spirit of God comes into play.. He cleans us up in the inside and speaks to us .. and literally shows us things of the Spirit .
Now , you have a challenge upon you. Dismiss it totally or .. get very curious to see if it be so.
From experience , it's a wrestling match to do.
In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry. (2 Timothy 4:1-5) Perseverance with commitment in the true faith – Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior will be the testing means if one is really an authentic Born-again CHRISTian. GOD help us all.
William Rogan Why is Jesus the only one that I can have a relationship with? I have a relationship with nature and the world around. So why is Jesus the only one that I can have a relationship with? Don't Muslims have a relationship with Allah? Don't Buddhists have a relationship with Buddha? And so on and so forth with other religions? Why is it that you feel Christianity is the only correct religion? And as a matter of fact, answer me this, by using scientific research excluding the Bible, what evidence do you have that proves that God exist in the first place? You see, I really do feel that you want to believe in something that is greater than yourself but to be honest it's only you. You make money. God doesn't make money for you. You have a job because YOU made the effort to get the job. Perhaps you had to go to the hospital because you were in an accident due to someone else's negligence. The doctors got you back on your feet. Not God, the doctors who have learned what medicine is and how it can help the human body to heal itself faster. So once again, where is the evidence of God's existence? And I'm not saying that God doesn't exist, I just want solid scientific proof of his existence.
Tommy, unfortunately there is no scientific proof that anyone can give you, Faith can be tough for those who are hard wired for facts, but it’s kind of like love, you can’t explain it, you can’t see it, you can’t touch it, yet it exists in a very powerful way. When a person comes to Christ, there is a supernatural power (the Holy Spirit) that bears witness with our Spirit and you will KNOW He is real. I admire people who sincerely search for truth because they tend to be the strongest believers when they find it.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

Hi Anna:
This is my response to Tommy. Feel free to use it for future reference.
You said “what evidence do you have that proves that God exist in the first place”….My answer is short so as not to confuse..”Fulfilled prophecy”. Almost 30% of Scripture is “fulfilled prophecy” and only God knows the future. That’s right, committees, groups, organizations, heck, even aliens,(if there were such a thing) cannot foretell the future.
Here is one example and you can look up the rest yourself, if your serious. The prophet Isaiah wrote about the birth, the life and the death of Jesus Christ, naming dates, times and places in detail, even describing the method of crucifixion He would suffer. Now, of course, these facts have no meaning until you realize that he wrote these things 750 years before Christ was born!! And crucifixion was only invented 75 years before Christ, by the Romans.
That is how all prophecy works. and history, archaeology and science all prove that all 1/3 of Scriptural prophecy has come to pass, with zero exceptions, exactly as foretold. Have fun searching out all the other 2,999 prophecies.
Rev. Roy….<
Excellent answer!! I agree, fulfilled prophecy is our staple, but He was saying, outside of the bible, what proof of Gods existence do we have. There were many that never held a bible in there hands, yet they understood through His creation that He existed. God has never had a problem revealing Himself to man in a supernatural way, but the simplicity in Christ is rarely found because of religious debacles. The two have zero to do with each other, sad that the “hands that rocks the religious cradle” are the same kinds that crucified our Savior. Religion chains us, Christ frees us.

The speaker is correct on one statement, All Christians are Catholic because all mainstream christian churches came out of the Roman Catholic church. The Great Whore has many daughters. They were taught by their mother her core values and beliefs. If your "Christian Church" teaches doctrinal error like sunday worship, christmas and easter, then it is undeniably a daughter of the great whore, because it BOWS TO THE AUTHORITY OF ROME.
Love that scripture but the truth is that they are all unbelievers because they reject God's one and only way to get sin dealt with and to be saved. They all believe in adding works of the flesh. It is wickedness and so many are being deceived.
Romans 3:24-26
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
In the first 3 chapters of Romans God declares all mankind guilty (and orders that they all shut their mouth) and then He provides His one and only solution: Put your faith in Jesus blood for the propitiation of your sin and BELIEVE in Jesus unto salvation being FREELY justified by the Heavenly Father.
It is ALL about Jesus and His blood alone with nothing added. Period!!!
Agree!!! Santa/Satan is behind it all. Works, works, works. Sacrificed under the evergreen. Pagan traditions replacing the finished work at the cross and the grace of God through the blood of Jesus, alone. period! No works of the flesh.
"Last year, Anglican priest and close friend of Pope Francis Tony Palmer gave an impassioned plea to Kenneth Copeland’s church to “return home to Mother Rome”, "
Not just Copeland. Let's not forget the heretic and deceiver James Robison who is also leading his deceived flock to hell. And TBN.
Hello Ella, if you don’t repent of your sins and live a holy life, it shows that you’ve never been born again. God said, “be holy, for I AM holy. Be careful yourself lest you end up there too. Run to the arms of Jesus YESHUA Mashiach. You appear to be a very angry person.
What a Great opportunity for a Christian to Preach the truth to a multi-religious audience.
Haters will hate. People will only listen to what they want to hear.
Shame on you now the end begins! I stopped reading your posts because of inconsistency and alterations of not only videos but statements and comments men and women of God have said. It took me a while but I figured you out! Now The End Begins is about being a religious denomination (Baptist) Hmm, funny that the Bible (the word) teaches against man's religious traditions and doctrines but yet people choose to follow a denomination like it's their God! All I can say is, I will pray for you but shame on you, NOW THE END BEGINS!!!
To Sue. Hey,you have got to be born again. It has nothing to do with any denomination. First, you must repent of your Jezebel ideology. Secondly, trust in Christ, to save you from your rebellious condition. My advice is, look after your family properly and be a real woman.
Umm, you all realize that Warren has publicly refuted this Chrislam thing, in the same breath stating that Jesus is the only way…
Aaron David firstly, there's no mention of Rick Warren in that speakers list, and the mandate of that specific link you sent is to strengthen traditional marriage between a man and a woman. The reason that there's going to be speakers from a mixture of faiths? Because Christianity isn't the only religion that's being attacked for being strict proponents of traditional marriage. Also, this writer claiming that Rick Warren founded Chrislam is one of the most absurd things I've ever heard. If that didn't tell you to begin with that this article is on the far end of reality, you should probably do some research of your own on the issue.
Paul went to speak with people who believed in false Gods. And I'm sure people thought terrible things about this. Does scripture record that Paul cursed or accused or reprimanded them for their various false gods and religions? No. He went and spoke gently but truthfully to them. Many scoffed at him while some either believed or wanted to hear more.
http://www.intervarsity.org/bible-studies/acts-17
Aaron David no, she is right, this conference has nothing to with creating one world religion but its purpose is to stop rapmant marital domestic abuse – do not participate in this persecution of the catholic church
To Geir offenberg; she is not right. She is complying with error. She probably has the spirif od deception. Yourself must be born again. Be a man up!
Children Forced to Become Autistic by LAW!
http://humansarefree.com/2014/11/children-forced-to-become-autistic-by.html
Have you ever looked through the eyes of an atheist? Have you ever considered what it is they see? Just take one honest look at the picture above of Rick Warren and with no preconceptions, let yourself completely FEEL what they FEEL when they see it.
I came to this site after reading a heartbreaking story of a war veteran who ultimately gave his life fighting for this country. He was a professed atheist and died as such. Why did I understand Him? Why did my heart break so deeply for this man? When I stopped and considered the world from his perspective, I realized something very disturbing, we have done this. This mans blood and his eternity is on ALL of our hands.
He died for a nation “under God”…….Really? A nation that sacrifices their men, this man for the sake of war and oil is a nation that’s supposedly under God? How dare we promote God through our selfish systems built on lies, lies that have made us believe that our blessings were from Him. His name has been used from the beginning of time for evil men to prosper. It is called a “cloak of righteousness”…..a CLOAK people, a covering meant to TRICK you. He is NOT the author of our disgusting systems or our religious institutions. They have used HIS name and HIS words to deceitfully line the pockets of greedy men wearing Armani suits for centuries. “god” has been used to blind us from GOD, and when you finally recognize GOD, you are no longer enslaved to “god”.
We have ultimately alienated the world with self righteous attitudes and lies that reek in the nostrils of hurting souls. We have given them no viable options to their pain. They would rather die as an atheist than identify with religious systems that make zero sense to them. They would rather risk hell than to be like “Christians”. Sadly, they have made that fatal decision based on a complete misrepresentation of Jesus Christ.
I fear that Gods kingdom will not come in our hearts until we are willing to step back and examine carefully the very systems supposedly built on Him. We need to allow God to shake our beliefs from the core and redefine Himself in our lives. We will never be an accurate representation of Christ until we know exactly who He is and who He is not.
We have done so much evil in His eyes and labeled it with “God” that many will spend eternity in hell because in order to divorce the system, they had to divorce the assumed god of those systems also. A VERY sad reality.
Ecumenism is spreading and the unfortunate thing is that Protestants have been Catholics all along, since Sunday is of Catholic origin if not pagan. Sure, you take away the middle-man (pope, priest), the idols, the purgatory, the worship of virgin of Mary, but what do they still (blindly) hold on to? A day that God commanded us to remember and keep, but most have forgotten. When those Protestants say they dont keep it because they're not a Jew, ironic that Jesus was a Jew and kept the Sabbath regularly, yet Protestants call themselves "Christians," but the harsh reality is that they are Catholics.
The labels we apply to ourselves are really irrelevant , they mean nothing. It’s a matter of people’s hearts and who they put their faith and trust in. I would agree that we have (unknowingly) adopted pagan traditions and christianized them, but God judges our hearts, not the day of the week we worship. If you hold to your stance, then EVERYTHING you do can be traced backwards to something cryptic, and if I or anyone else uses the law (which we are not under) for their argument against ecumenicals, we become instant hypocrites because YOU nor anyone else can keep the entirety of the law. If worshipping on Sunday is a personal conviction, by all means don’t do it, but to speculate that people are Catholics or pagans because they do is definitely throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I know many God fearing people that have no understanding of our pagan origins and they worship on SUN-days (yea, I get it, but their hearts are Gods focus).
This whole article is a bunch of crazy nonsense and lies. I guarantee the author has neve met him or gone to a service at his church! Shame on him!!!
Tommy Lopez The big proof that God exist is yourself! You and I are a design. Wonderfully made! We don't exist accidentally!
Vel Za Siama , so you are basically saying that we as humans are God. Cool. But wait, if I'm God, then I have the power within me to control my own future and this life that I lead. Sounds to me like you're on the right track.
I don’t think that is what Vel was saying. Rather she is saying that the complexity of us as humans, and the universe in total for that matter, points to a “creator.” You may debate how the creation came about but I don’t think it is disputable that it was designed. It is just too complex to be otherwise.

With all due respect, if your 'church' is a 501c3 you are in bed with the government and very shortly you could be fined if "your" church (Jesus Christ's Body) does not perform same sex marriages–180 days in jail $1000 a day for every day not conforming to Federal/State law. How long do you think your bank account is safe?–if you are a "member" you are a corporate entity and your bank account could be drained. Just a heads up for you and "your" church.
I think saying churches are “in bed” with the government just because they are following the tax law as it is currently set up is a little harsh. Regardless, if such oppression came to be the “church” would simply become house churches, etc. The church in China grew exponentially in the manner. I don’t doubt we in America would figure it out.
What does light have to do with darkness? NOTHING! Allah is a god of lies, hatred, and endless bloodshed. He is not God. Islam is not peaceful and I'm very disappointed in Rick Warren.
The anti-Christ and his false prophet…
As soon as I read your post Joel Osteen came to mind right away! He only seems to preach prosperity b.s.,never Jesus' work on the cross! I heard he charges 85$ a head to see him speak for 2 hours,are the people out of their minds?! They do not have eyes to see or ears to hear,because he is surely a false prophet!
You just took the words I was going to type next
If that doesn't show you who Jesus was talking about,I don't know will make you see!
Harold Beaver Green how is a church that is tax exempt guilty of being un-equally yoked? doesnt make sense to me.
The Catholic Church has a 2000 year record of backing losers. Jesus would be very upset to see this.
the biggest false prophetess in the world today is joyce meyer. She plus all women priests have the jezebel spirit. If they don’t repent, they all will go to hell fire. Osteen and others like him, will face the judgment of God
Harold, I know several gospel-preaching, life changing churches lead by great men of God who convey things like love and encouragement as well as the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of our Savior and preach the whole Bible and I've seen lives transformed before my eyes. They also are 501c3. Will you be quick to condemn them as well?
Dear Jon, I ask you and Harold to forgive me for butting in, but I believe your post requires a response.
You ask a very weighty question which goes to the heart of the matter, namely, who are the people called by MY (God’s) NAME? In other words, Who is the head of your church, Christ, or Caesar? As you know you cannot serve two masters. If it is Christ who founded and sustains your church, why do you feel you must apply to Caesar for his authority to exist? And yet this is precisely the case with each and every 501c3 church. Simply read your incorporation IRS paperwork. You are not Christ’s pure ecclesia but rather an amalgamation, ie. a mixture, that is, a government corporation — in other words a LEGAL FICTION. Your IRS paperwork will show your church’s name in ALL CAPS. What does this mean? While you are at it empty your wallet of all commercial (plastic) cards. You may notice a conspicuous pattern emerging. If you are interested, I will explain at a later date.
Jon, I had been a lay preacher and felt I knew much. I had been “in Christ” for 20 years but I came to realize I knew nothing at all. I condemn no man, but neither will I be partaker of Mystery Babylon. Here is something to ponder. How does she buy slaves and souls of men, and from whom does she purchase them? And how is it that God’s people are being called out of her? The answer is stranger than you would ever believe. God bless you in your search for the TRUTH. Your brother, Manny Clay
It's not a religion to just be a believer in the work Jesus did on the crossand believe the Holy Bible is the true word of God…some will call that a born again Christian but surely isn't A RELIGION! Now…Catholicism is a cult/religion if you want to talk religions.
If you will just look up Father Malachi Martin's videos you will see the truth about the Catholic Church and the people who run it…
What if you are just a follower of Jesus? Believe the work He did on the cross/resurrected and believe the Holy Bible is the true word of God??? I do not have anything to do with ROME!
The born again Christians who believe like I do ARE THE CHURCH!
Look up his background first before saying that. Please do some research on the man,there's nothing holy about him! Look up info on the jesuits-they are not good people you will see!!! Look up Father Malachi Martin's video's on youtube,I feel you are going to be shocked but you must know the truth!
YUP! Be ye not unequally yoked with unbelievers,for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?And what communion hath light with darkness?And what concord hath Christ with Belial?Or what part hath he that beleiveth with an INFIDEL? (I think that word Infidel says it all when speaking about this matter-don't you? LOL!!!

I offer an open invitation to "MY Testimony" group page on my facebook page. It is open to public view , membership by request and it's about Jesus in us.

Tommy Lopez I know how you feel. If you honestly pursue the verifiable truth that Jesus lives… you'll get an honest answer. You'll see.
Wendy Tucker Morgan, once again, I ask, why is Jesus the only "god" that I have to have a personal relationship with? Let me educate you a little bit and this goes to anyone else wanting to learn about this. There are 10 Christ-like figures that predate Jesus and Christianity. Buddha predates Jesus. Hercules predates Jesus. Krishna predates Christianity. Druidism predates Christianity by 200 years. You think Christianity is still the correct religion? Try thinking about this, Christianity itself is based off the stories of Horus and predates Jesus by 500 years. Horus was born of a virgin, Isis. Only begotten son of the God Osiris. Birth heralded by the star Sirius, the morning star. Ancient Egyptians paraded a manger and child representing Horus through the streets at the time of the winter solstice (about DEC-21). In reality, he had no birth date; he was not a human. Death threat during infancy: Herut tried to have Horus murdered. Handling the threat: The God That tells Horus’ mother “Come, thou goddess Isis, hide thyself with thy child.” An angel tells Jesus’ father to: “Arise and take the young child and his mother and flee into Egypt.” Break in life history: No data between ages of 12 & 30. Age at baptism: 30. Subsequent fate of the baptiser: Beheaded. Walked on water, cast out demons, healed the sick, restored sight to the blind. Was crucifed, descended into Hell; resurrected after three days. Keep trying me on this. I have a ton of research to back me up and I am a former senior pastor.
Tommy Lopez,
To state that other Christ-like figures predate the life of Christianity, is in itself a correct statement. The issue is that Christianity is not based purely on the life, death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, but also the Old Testament. The oldest book that mankind has is still considered to be Job, which was written some time during the life of the patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac and Jacob). The Old Testament is full of prophecy concerning the life of Jesus Christ, do you not think that it would not be possible for Satan to read these prophecies and try to concoct his own false “Messiahs”. These Christ like figures may have pre-dated Christ, but they do not pre-date the prophecies concerning Christ.
Secondly, all these figures are not Christ-like, Jesus Christ is the only one who not only prophesied of his death and resurrection, he actually did it. All these other figures died and that was it.
As for the legitimacy of the fact that Jesus Christ lived, died and rose again, look into the story of Professor Greenleaf. He was a Harvard professor of Law, who wrote “Treatise of evidence”, still to this day considered the most important guide concerning how to treat evidence in a court of law. He was a staunch atheist, and was challenged by one of his Christian students to use the methods in his book, to disprove the resurrection of Jesus Christ. After a 2 year period he concluded that it was an indisputable fact and that any unbiased court would concur. Also note that the life of Jesus Christ was also documented by other secular writers such as Josephus, which back up the story in the Bible.
The greatest attribute we have of the Bible is that fact that it can be traced back to its original writings, therefore we confidently know that the bible we read today is identical to the original writings. We cannot claim that of any other ancient book. In fact the next closest ancient book has a gap of over 500 years from the original writing to the copy which was now have, in 500 years it could have been changed without our knowledge.
As for your story concerning Isis and Horus, please do some research into the mystery religions, specifically in regards to Nimrod, who lived shortly after the Flood. All these stories can be traced back directly from these mystery religions, which still permeate our society today. Which currently is seen primarily in the “New Age”, which has nothing new about it at all, it is the same lie from the time of Nimrod all over again.
For a good insight, watch the series entitled “Know you enemy” by the Fuel Project. The entire series is on YouTube, i suggest you watch it.
1Jn 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
1Jn 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Do you know who started roman catholism ? It was the fake jews or what apostle John called the synagogue of satan . It was these same fake jews who Jesus Christ called of their father the devil
Joh_8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
DISPENSAIONALISM IS A LIE he old tell the young
You would have to disobey scripture to walk hand in hand with anti-christs
Think not I am boasting , my heart breaks daily for you poor lied to dispensationalists , for their I but by the grace of Jesus Christ
For any real jew would believe in Jesus Christ as witnessed here in the book of romans
Rom 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
Rom 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Why was scofield published by these same fake jews?
why John nelson darby and scofield BOTH change the Holy Bible ?
the original anti-semites are those that follow the satanic religion of Judaism
I am the least of all saints , I am a nobody saved by the Almighty Grace of the ONLY I AM THAT I AM , by the Grace of Jesus Christ .
You are either of works , or the Living Father's Eternal grace .
MATTHEW CH.24/2ND.THESSALONIANS CH.2/REVELATION CH.13;17;18/JAMES 5:1-5 IS ABSOLUTELY KNOCKING ON OUR DOORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is Catholic Dogma the Jesus is the Son of God, the Word who took on human flesh, that He was crucified for our sins and that He rose from the dead and is now seated at the right hand of the Father. Dogma can not be altered by reinterpretation or public opinion. This Dogma will not be accepted by other "religions" of the world. If you want to recognize the "world religion" look for a compromise on this teaching, look for those who are united under a compromise that somehow attempts to strip Jesus of His divinity. There you will find satan in their midst.
no young lady it is NOT a lie…I 1st started hearing this 2 years ago and don't say something is a lie unless you RESEARCH. I have been for years…. watch …http://youtu.be/f34Pb-doPs0
exactly! Chrislam is revealed here, and the time is short! Watch and you will know more…http://youtu.be/f34Pb-doPs0
to Lynne Kelley, you are highly mistaken. There is no Chrislam and Warren, and others, who are accused of promoting it have been severely slandered by “Christians” who are seeking only to be sensational for the sake of their websites. It is slander pure and simple; it is false information. See http://pastors.com/?s=chrislam
Ps. 31:13; Ps. 50:20; Ps. 109:2; Matt. 12:36; Eph. 4:31

don’t get stuck on the term chrislam and fail to see the inter-religious movement that’s afoot. “chrislam” is better termed =interfaith, interfaith is attempts to join islam with worldly christian..but also any and all other non christian religions with christian, or you could put it the other way it makes no difference, join “christian” with all the other religions, join all religions together. So when looking into interfaith or inter religious movements you’d see many of the various religions leaders on board.
Who attends the meetings etc is not hard to find, many of the worlds diverse religions are climbing on board..all one big unity religion fit for an anti-christ when his time comes.
Ecumenical is attempts to join worldly christian branches with worldly christian branches.
Is Christ even “of” the world? john 17.
rev 12:12..yet they think to bring unity and peace? the devil will come and with far less restraint (2nd thess 2)..but he will be real nice?
And some guru or islam follower or..is my “brother” yet he denies the fullness of who Christ is? his prayers are heard by the Father even though he bypasses Christ?
no.
Yet pray for them and share with grace the truth. All are dead in trespasses and sins until their made alive in Christ as any in Christ today were once dead in sins, so there’s hope that perhaps God might grant any repentance and faith in Christ.
The truth will only set you free if you recognize truth.

Be careful of slander in who you call a deceiver. We only know in part according to the NT including yourself and we will all be accountable for every idle word we speak about others who are of another fold as Jesus said to some of his followers jealous of others.
Question for Geoffrey Grider. Did you follow the Biblical example and share your concerns with Rick Warren? If not, you are no better than you claim he is.
Matthew 18:15-17 ESV / 586 helpful votes
“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.
I do not know the state of Rick Warren's faith nor do you.
However I do know the state of someone's faith that simply talks behind another Christian's back and does not follow the Biblical example. The Bible verse tells how it should be done.
Do you remember that Jesus was accused of being a friend of sinners?
Now you are accusing Rick Warren.
So if you go to him and share your concerns you may be a Christ-follower; if you do not, you may be like accusers of Jesus.
Which are you?
Well said.
Why would people want to associate with Christians when they publicly tear one another down?
http://www.christianpost.com/news/pastors-answer-does-rick-warren-endorse-islam-52833/
Jesus was also accused of being a friend of wine-bibbers and sinners. So are you one of Rick Warren's accusers?
Have you followed the Biblical example and followed the Mathew 18:15 method of going to your brother Rick Warren and expressing your concerns?
How are you going to witness to non-Christians if you do not go near them? Ask Jesus.
So this is YOUR judgement?
1"Do not judge, or you too will be judged.
2For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Aaron David Jesus spoke to non-Christians as we all should. So what is this problem with speaking to non-Christians????
Bob Pyle You would call the Apostle Paul a slanderer also. And I suppose that you would call Jesus a slanderer too. Paul called out Hymenaeus and Philetus for teaching heresy and Jesus referred to many as being children of their father, the devil.
Are you saved? How did you get your sin dealt with and how did you get saved??? Scripture please.
Right on, Bob!

“Christians have been duped by the unholiest hoax in all history, by so-called Jews. This is considered their most effective weapon.”
“This ‘big lie’ technique is brainwashing United States Christians into believing that Jesus Christ was “King of the Jews”, in the sense that so-called ‘Jews’ today call themselves ‘Jews’. This reference was first made in English translations of the Old and New Testaments, centuries before the so-called Jews highjacked the word ‘Jew’ in the 18th century A.D. to palm themselves off on the Christian world as having a kinship with Jesus Christ. This alleged kinship comes from the myth of their common ancestry with the so-called ‘Jews’ of the Holy Land in the Old Testament history, a fiction based on fable.”
“American Christians little suspect they are being brainwashed twenty-four hours of every day over television and radio, by newspapers and magazines, by motion pictures and plays, by books, by political leaders in office and seeking office, by religious leaders in their pulpits and outside their churches, by leaders in the field of education inside and outside their curricular activities, and by all leaders in business, professions and finance, whose economic security demands that they curry the favor of so-called “Jews” of historic Khazar ancestry. Unsuspecting Christians are subjected to this barrage from sources they have little reason to suspect. Incontestable facts supply the unchallengeable proof of the historic accuracy that so-called “Jews” throughout the world today of eastern European origin are unquestionably the historic descendants of the Khazars, a pagan Turko-Finn ancient Mongoloid nation deep in the heart of Asia, according to history, who battled their way in bloody wars about the 1st century B.C. into eastern Europe where they set up their Khazar kingdom. For some mysterious reason the history of the Khazar kingdom is conspicuous by its absence from history courses in the schools and colleges.
“The historic existence of the Khazar kingdom of so-called “Jews”, their rise and fall, the permanent disappearance of the Khazar kingdom as a nation from the map of Europe, and how King Bulan and the Khazar nation in about 740 A.D. became so-called “Jews” by conversion, were concealed from American Christians by censorship imposed by so-called “Jews”, of historic Khazar ancestry, upon all U.S.A. media of mass communications directed by them. Then in 1945 this author gave nation-wide publicity to his many years intensive research into the “facts of life” concerning Khazars. The disclosures were sensational and very effective but apparently angered so-called “Jews” who have continued to vent their spleen upon this author since then solely for that reason. Since 1946 they have conducted a vicious smear campaign against him, seeking thus to further conceal these facts, for obvious reasons. What have they to fear from the truth?
“In an original 1903 edition of the Jewish Encyclopedia in New York’s Public Library, and in the Library of Congress, Volume IV, pages 1 to 5 inclusive, appears a most comprehensive history of the Khazars. Also in the New York Public Library are 327 books by the world’s greatest historians and other sources of reference, in addition to the Jewish Encyclopedia, dealing with Khazar history, and written between the 3rd A.D. and 20th centuries by contemporaries of the Khazars and by modern historians on that subject.”
Jesus was a ‘Judean’, not a Jew.
During His lifetime, no persons were described as “Jews” anywhere. That fact is supported by theology, history and science. When Jesus was in Judea, it was not the “homeland” of the ancestors of those who today style themselves “Jews”. Their ancestors never set a foot in Judea. They existed at that time in Asia, their “homeland”, and were known as Khazars. In none of the manuscripts of the original Old or New Testament was Jesus described or referred to as a “Jew”. The term originated in the late eighteenth century as an abbreviation of the term Judean and refers to a resident of Judea without regard to race or religion, just as the term “Texan” signifies a person living in Texas.
In spite of the powerful propaganda effort of the so-called “Jews”, they have been unable to prove in recorded history that there is one record, prior to that period, of a race religion or nationality, referred to as “Jew”. The religious sect in Judea, in the time of Jesus, to which self-styled “Jews” today refer to as “Jews”, were known as “Pharisees”. “Judaism” today and “Pharisaism” in the time of Jesus are the same.
Jesus abhorred and denounced “Pharisaism”; hence the words, “Woe unto you Scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites, Ye Serpents, Ye Generation of Vipers”.
JESUS WAS NOT A Jew
by Jason Collett
Many denominational Christians and even church leaders are under the mistaken belief that Jesus was a Jew. But nothing could be further from the truth.
Judea and Galilee were two separate states and political entities, as illustrated on the map of Palestine in the time of our Saviour in your Bible. Jesus Himself was not a Jew (Judean) or resident of Judea, He was a Galilean or resident of Galilee (Matthew 26:69; John 7:41), and a Judahite or descendent of the Tribe of Judah. The Judeans of prominence were not of the Tribe of Judah, but of Edomites. Pilate was being ironic when he wrote the sign “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Judeans” for the Cross (John 19:19). That is, “the Galilean who was King of the Judeans,” as in “Queen Victoria of England, Empress of India.” Jesus grew up in Nazareth in Galilee. His disciples were fishermen from the Sea of Galilee. And although He visited Jerusalem, he spent most of His life in his home country of Galilee. John 7:1, “After this Jesus stayed in Galilee; for He could not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.” His followers were constrained “for fear of the Jews” (John 7:13, 19:38, 20:19).
Why was this?
Psalm 83:3 says God’s elect are “hidden” or protected ones, and that they are under attack from a coalition of evil groups led by Edom. Who was Edom?
Esau, the brother of the patriarch Jacob, became the ancestor of the people called Edom, or Idumea. The Antiquities of the Jews by Flavius Josephus, XIII ix 1; XV vii 9 instructs us: John Hyrcanus forcibly assimilated the Edomites as a national group and they became “Jews” in about 120BC. The Jewish historian Josephus, who lived just after the time of Christ, wrote, “They [Edom] were hereafter no other than Jews’. The Jewish scholar Cecil Roth in his Concise Jewish Encyclopedia (1980) says on page 154, “John Hyrcanus forcibly converted [Edom] to Judaism. From then on they were part of the Jewish people. In the Talmud the name of Edom was applied to Christian Rome, and was then used for Christianity in general”.
Terrible judgements against Edom are made in most of the prophecies of the Old Testament. For instance, Isaiah 34, 63, Jeremiah 49, and the entire book of Obadiah.
Isaiah 63:1-6, “Who is this coming from Edom . . . in garments stained with crimson? It is I [the Lord] who speak in righteousness and am mighty to save.”
“Why are your garments red, as if you had trodden the winepress?”
“I have trodden the winepress alone: and of the people there was none to help Me. In My anger I trod them down, trampled them in My wrath. Their blood splattered My garments, and all My clothes are stained. For the day of vengeance is in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come. . . I will tread down the people in My anger, and bring their blood upon the ground”.
These verses refer to Revelations chapter 19:11-21, when the Word of God destroys His enemies: “And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse: and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True. . . His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns, and He had a Name written that no man knew but Himself. And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood, and His Name is called The Word of God. . . and He trod the winepress of God’s fierce anger”.
Jehovah of the Old Testament “hated Esau (Edom), against whom He has indignation forever” (Malachi 1:2-4). If Jesus will destroy Edom when He returns, then Edom is present today, and obviously evil, anti-Christian, and anti-Semitic.
The Edomite, Antipater, became the Procurator of Judea in 47BC. Ten years later his son Herod actually became “king of the Jews,” initiating the Edomite dynasty which ruled Palestine under Roman authority for over a hundred years. The Edomite assimilation opened the way for the virtual takeover along the lines predicted by Ezekiel and stimulus for an influx of population from the arid country of Edom into the more hospitable environment of Judea, an influx obviously encouraged for political reasons by the ruling Herodian dynasty. Edomites would have been appointed to the most influential positions, in order to extend and consolidate Edomite authority over the land and its people. Herod became notorious for his massacre of infant boys two years old and undger,” a supernaturally inspired attempt on the life of Christ (Matthew 2:16). Herod’s son Herod Antipas, continuing the work, and was responsible for the gruesome murder of John the Baptist (Matthew 14:6-12).
Christ demonstrated a very real antipathy towards the people called Jews, in Bibles published after about 1776, but who would be more accurately described as Judeans, or residents of the Edomite-dominated territory of Judea. Jesus said to the Jews “You do not believe because you are not of My sheep” (John 10:24-27). “I was only sent to the lost sheep of the House of Israel” (Matthew 15:24). In fact, Christ referred to “those Jews (or residents of Judea regardless of religion, race or color) who believed on him,” as “of their father the devil” for although they were children of Abraham, they were not children of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and heirs of the blessing of Abraham, nor did they have the faith of Abraham, and were in all probability descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Esau (John 8: 31,44). In contrast, Jesus instructed His disciples – who were from Galilee of the Gentiles, not Judea (Acts 1:11; 2:7) – to pray to And in Revelation 2:9 and 3:9, Jesus speaks of “those who say they are Jews and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan”.
The Jews shouted “Crucify Him!” (John 19:15); “His blood be on us and on our children” (Matthew 27:25). In an appropriate turn about, when Jesus returns, their blood will stain His own garments. The spiritual leaders of the Jews were the Pharisees, who not surprisingly were associated with the (Edomite) Herodians (Matthew 22:15-16; Mark 3:6; 12:13). Jesus repeatedly condemned the Pharisees as “hypocrites” (Matthew 15:7; 22:18; 23:13,15,23,25,27-27). He also called them “serpents, the offspring of vipers” (Matthew 3:7; 12:34; 23:33).
“Jesus spoke to the crowds only in parables” (Matthew 13:10-17). Why was this? Many nominal churches and Sunday schools teach that Jesus used parables to make His teachings clearer. But all four Gospels say the opposite. When Jesus was asked why He spoke to them in parables, He replied “Because it is given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given” (Matthew 13:10-11; Mark 4:11-12; Luke 8:9-10; John 12:37-44). Brother Branham simply said, Jesus spoke in parables to thin down the crowds.
Jesus told “those Jews who believed in Him . . . You are of your father the devil, and lust for what is forbidden. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him . . . as he is a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:31-44). This characteristic is confirmed by the dictionary definition of the verb jew .
But do Jews ever come up with such brazenly audacious lies, lies so enormous in scope and implication as to qualify as “chutzpah,” so admired by Jews?
Norman G. Finkelstein of the City University of New York says:
“The Holocaust has proven to be an indispensable ideological weapon. Through its deployment, one of the world’s most formidable military powers, with a horrendous human rights record, has cast itself as a ‘victim’ state, and the most successful ethnic group in the United States has likewise acquired victim status. Considerable benefits accrue to this specious victimhood – in particular, immunity to criticism, however justified” (Finkelstein, The Holocaust Industry (2000) published by Verso, p. 3).
In other words, Finkelstein exposes the HYPOCRISY.
Some further quotes:
“In an authoritative study, Leonard Dinnerstein reported: Sixty thousand Jews . . . walked out of the concentration camps. Within a week more than 20,000 of them had died.” But ‘As it entered into negotiations with Germany [just two years ago, in 1999], the Holocaust industry demanded compensation for 135,000 still living former (camp inmates).’
On page 83 he notes that ‘The Israeli Prime Minister’s office recently put the number of “living Holocaust survivors” at nearly a million.’ Finkelstein exposes the LIES.
On page 127 he further notes ‘If 135,000 former Jewish slave laborers are still alive today, some 600,000 must have survived the war. That’s at least a half-million more than standard estimates. . . If Jews only constituted 20% of the surviving camp population and, as the Holocaust industry implies, 600,000 Jewish inmates survived the war, then fully 3 million inmates in total must have survived. By the Holocaust industry’s reckoning, concentration camp conditions couldn’t have been that harsh at all; in fact, one must suppose a remarkably high fertility and remarkably low mortality rate. . . If, as the Holocaust industry suggests, many hundreds of thousands of Jews survived, the Final Solution couldn’t have been so efficient after all – exactly what Holocaust deniers argue” (pp. 127-8).
“Both my father and my mother were survivors of the Warsaw ghetto and the Nazi concentration camps. . . One of my father’s lifelong friends was a former inmate with him in Auschwitz, a seemingly incorruptible left-wing idealist who on principle refused German compensation after the war. Eventually he became a director of the Israeli Holocaust museum, Yad Vashem. Reluctantly and with genuine disappointment, my father finally admitted that even this man had been corrupted by the Holocaust industry, tailoring his beliefs for power and profit. As the rendering of the Holocaust assumed ever more absurd forms, my mother liked to quote (with intentional irony) Henry Ford: “History is bunk.” (ibid. p. 7).
“The Holocaust proved to be the perfect weapon for deflecting criticism of Israel” (ibid p. 30).
“Much of the literature on Hitler’s Final Solution is worthless as scholarship. Indeed, the field of Holocaust studies is replete with nonsense, if not sheer fraud.” (p. 55).
“Given the nonsense that is turned out daily by the Holocaust industry, the wonder is that there are so few skeptics”. (p. 68).
“Annual Days of Remembrance of the Holocaust are a national event. All 50 states sponsor commemorations, often in state legislative chambers. . . Seven major Holocaust museums dot the American landscape. The centerpiece of this memorialization is the United States Holocaust museum in Washington. . . [This] museum’s annual budget is $50 million, of which $30 million is federally subsidized.” (p. 72). (This is in spite of the fact that, as he points out on page 32, per capita Jewish income in the US is almost double that of non-Jews).
“With a reelection campaign looming, Jimmy Carter initiated the [US Holocaust Museum] project to placate Jewish contributors and voters, galled by the president’s recognition of the “legitimate rights” of Palestinians.’ (p. 73).
Finkelstein exposes the SWINDLE, a word formerly most often associated with Jews.
“The Holocaust” is an ideological representation of the Nazi holocaust. Like most ideologies, it bears a connection, if tenuous, with reality. The Holocaust is not an arbitrary, but rather an internally coherent construct. Its central dogmas sustain significant political and class interests.” (p. 3). And:
“The Holocaust may yet turn out to be the “greatest robbery in the history of mankind”. . . The Holocaust industry has clearly gone berserk.” (p. 138-9).
For those honest Christians who believed a lie about Rick Warren without checking with him, you would be very interested in his comments about the Chrislam rumour spreaders.
http://www.charismanews.com/us/32322-rick-warren-addresses-rumors-he-supports-chrislam
Please note i personally do not follow the teachings of Rick Warren as i believe he is watering down the true gospel, but i do not think he is an Antichrist as so many would profess in their comments. I believe he is doing the right thing, but unfortunately he is wrong in his assumptions.
We all need to guard our faith, as any of us can be mislead. We need to continue to be reading his word and testing the teachings of all who lead us. Just because they may be wrong at times, does not mean they are false teachers, not one of us can claim infaliable interpretation of the entire bible.
The true test would be to see how they react once corrected with scripture, if they are humble and willing to change their doctrine to align with scripture, then fantastic, but if they are proud and consider their truth to be the only truth, we have an issue.
Lets not forget that the apostles also split because they couldn’t agree on some doctrine, but they all were gods chosen apostles. As Paul stated “we see through the glass darkly”, we don’t have entire illumination of the scriptures.
So lets pray for our leaders, and provide them with support, question them when they teach something dubious, but give them the grace to realign themselves with scripture. Only when all this fails, can we be sure to call them out as false teachers.
