Rick Warren’s Final Frontier — CT Interview {Re-blogged}

I don’t generally quote Mr. Warren, but after reading this insightful interview, I was encouraged by what I read.  That doesn’t necessarily mean that I agree with him 100%, but please take the wisdom he shares in this context, and be encouraged, strengthened, challenged, and pushed to pray for those who are launching out into similar areas of ministry.

 

Cultural Christianity is dying. Genuine Christianity is not. The number of cultural Christians is going down because they never really were Christian in the first place. They don’t have to pretend by going to church anymore.

 

This is the final frontier. Twice Revelation says that around the throne in heaven will be people from every language, every nation, and every tribe. I take this literally. Yet there are still 3,400 unengaged tribes because they’re very small. None of them have more than 100,000 people.

 

Working with moderate Muslims. This is the whole idea of the Peace Plan: Promoting reconciliation [means] to find a man of peace. I have found men of peace who do not at all hold to what I believe about Scripture and certainly aren’t Christians, but we can work together.

I still point to Rwanda. I’ve never found a country where 19 years ago they were hacking each other up and now they’re living side by side without barbed wire. They figured out something about how to get people who literally killed each other’s families to live next to each other. The reconciliation model is important.

Get ready to be Lance Armstrong’s God {Re-blogged}

Editor’s note: I apologize for the two misspellings in this post, and the incorrect video linked below.  Everything should be in order now. Thanks for the likes!

—–

Over the next two nights, the world will watch as Lance Armstrong enters the celebrity confessional booth organized under the auspices of culture’s great high priestess. He will confess his sins, cry his tears, and cower in remorse at Oprah’s feet, seeking mercy from the Mother of Morality.

His plight reveals just how fragile and fickle an identity truly is. When one of the greatest heroes in the world turns into a villain virtually overnight, each of us should take the opportunity to consider who we really are.

Mark Driscoll’s insightful, humbling reminder to the rest of us, should cause us to have compassion on Mr. Armstrong, and others who have “fallen” in the public eye.  If you want to read the article in its entirety, click here.

Attacking the Messenger Does Not Change the Truth of the Message
By Brannon S. Howse
Recently a national radio network e-mailed two Worldview Weekend speakers and informed them that if they continued to speak for Worldview Weekend their programs would be dropped from this network. Attacking the messenger may bring satisfaction to those that are in error but it does not change the truth of the message. Mockingly pointing out the admitted failings of the imperfect messenger and his friends does not taint the truthfulness of the Biblical standard to which they endeavor to conform.

Worldview Weekend Radio with Brannon Howse
Topic: Numerous media outlets report that Rick Perry appoints as Florida, Co-Chair of leadership team a women that is preaching dominionism & raising the dead. Hear the audio yourself. Topic: Christian radio hosts cancels his speaking for Worldview Weekend to keep his program on the Christian radio network that said he must not speak for Worldview Weekend or his program will be dropped. We understand he did not ask to be put in this position and we wish him well in his important ministry. This radio network is upset with Brannon for speaking against the New Religious Right and Evangelical leaders that have united with participants of the New Apostolic Reformation and the Word of Faith in Perry’s prayer event and in several other Christian conferences and projects. John Loeffler announces that his program has been pulled from this radio network and Loeffler has informed Worldview Weekend that he will not separate from us. Topic: Pat Robertson says Mitt Romney is an “outstanding Christian”. It appears the New Religious Right is more interested in the White House than the church house & is willing to abandon Biblical theology & doctrine to win elections. Has the spiritual civil war some of the NAR members have called for within the church to drive out those holding to rigidly to doctrine now begun in earnest?

A Brief (and by no means exhaustive) Summary of Passages Contained Within “The Message” by Eugene Peterson Which Directly Compromise Fundamental Tenets of Orthodox Christianity (Review by Rev. Justin Peters)
What follows is a comparison/contrast and analysis of several well –known passages as found in major translations such as the KJV, NASB, and NIV as well as these same passages as found in The Message authored by Eugene Peterson. Any intellectually honest assessment of the following notes leads to the inescapable conclusion that The Message compromises some of the fundamental doctrines of orthodox Christianity.

Brannon’s guest is Christine Pack. Despite being raised in the Church, Christine became involved in the New Age Movement and particularly Hinduism and Kundalini yoga through which she met three master guides also known as demons. Once she became a Christian Christine began to warn Christians that the very occult practices of which she once took part, were now inside mainstream evangelicalism under such names as contemplative prayer, “Christian” Yoga and walking the labyrinth. Please listen to this broadcast and then send it on to all your Christian friends as well as those you know that are involved in New Age Mysticism.

This is now rampant in churches of all denominations yet Christian participants do not understand they are dealing with 330 million Hindu gods. They are in denial because it’s “good stretching and breathing methods” and Yoga supposedly relieves their stress. This DVD and information is a tool to sound a warning to them.

Worldview Weekend Radio:
Why is it important that the gospel be our primary focus to political and cultural activism? What are the dangers of moralizing? Does Satan care if people go to hell as a police officer or prostitute? Brannon explains how a few years ago he had to repent for far too many years of focusing on political and cultural activism at the expense of the proclamation of the gospel. Can a moral nation still be an offense to God? How does the social gospel differ from a Biblical gospel? Why is there really no difference between the social gospel of the left and the social gospel of many on the right? What is the missing objective and focus that causes many on the right to slide into a social gospel message? Brannon explains how Christians can be involved in addressing unbiblical issues such as abortion and same-sex marriage while at the same time proclaiming a Biblical gospel? What does the verse that calls for Christians to be salt and light in Matthew really mean?

President Obama’s War on Libya Has No Basis on US Law but Was Authorized by the New World Order
By Jimmy DeYoung
The title of a Washington Times editorial states that US President Obama’s illegal war on Libya was authorized by a UN resolution, not the Constitution of the US which calls for the US Congress to authorize any military activity undertaken by the US military, a point that can be argued by both sides of the issue.

Can Altar Calls Produce False Converts?
We’ve got ten million southern Baptists who walked somebody’s aisle, and prayed somebody’s prayer and checked somebody’s card and raised their hand….we’ve got ten million of them that do not come to church. And when they face Jesus one day, at the Judgement bar, they’re going to quote some preacher…..’Well, Pastor said if I’d come to the front…I did that. Pastor said if I prayed that prayer….I did that.’ Do you not realize that if you give the flesh a hoop to jump, the flesh will do it every time?

In Defense of the Gospel: A Response to the Expose Written by Dr. Catherine Millard concerning the documentary film, The Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers
By Christian Pinto
Since the release of our film, “The Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers,” there have been a number of challengers to the information we present, since we argue that the real faith of the American revolutionaries was hostile to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In our film, our defense is for the Gospel and not Christian “principles.” The difference between the two, in our opinion, is the difference between the Disciples of Jesus and the Pharisees. The Pharisees followed certain principles of Mosaic Law, but they rejected the true Messiah. The same can be said of many Revolutionary Founders, who said some things in favor of the Bible or the Christian Religion, but openly rejected Jesus as the Son of God, and Savior of our souls.

Pray for us

This afternoon, our family and several others will be heading to a nearby city to take part in a 40 Days for Life event, at a local Planned Parenthood abortion clinic.

Hell as portrayed in Dante's Divine Comedy

Hell as portrayed in Dante's Divine Comedy

“Oh, my brothers and sisters in Christ, if sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies; and if they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, imploring them to stay, and not madly to destroy themselves.  If hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for.”

- Charles Spurgeon (1860)

“And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.”

- Matthew 10:28

Those pro-lifers…

A pro-life group recently stirred up the proverbial hornets nest with their “controversial” and “provocatively disturbing” billboard with a powerful message, aimed at the African-American community:

The bill-board reads: “The most dangerous place for an African American is in the womb.”

Sadly, this is a true statement.  Even though African American’s make up only12.8% of the US population, they account for 35% of all abortions conducted here in the States! (source)

In searching for information concerning this latest chapter in the fight to protect little unborn babies, I came across two informative blog posts

By-the-way, if you have not watched Maafa21 or are not familiar with the claims of eugenicist and Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger, check out this video clip:

And if you don’t believe her words, or are shocked that someone would say such a thing, here is a quote from her in 1950:

I consider that the world and almost our civilization for the next twenty-five years, is going to depend upon a simple, cheap, safe contraceptive to be used in poverty stricken slums, jungles, and among the most ignorant people. Even this will not be sufficient, because I believe that now, immediately, there should be national sterilization for certain dysgenic types of our population who are being encouraged to breed and would die out were the government not feeding them.
Planned Parenthood Founder, Margaret Sanger, 1950

Stephen Broden was recently interviewed on MSNBC:

I would encourage you to watch Maafa21, and be prepared to hear the Truth!

And the official trailer for Maafa21

This is just the kind of healthy debate that needs to be taking place here in America, where we are experiencing our own holocaust ~ the murder of future generations, our children and grandchildren.  Since 1973 (Roe v. Wade), approximately 52,000,000+ abortions have been conducted.  52,000,000 wombs have been robbed of the precious life growing within.  52,000,000 million parents arms are left empty, a un-fillable void in the hearts and lives of men, women and their families.

Sex-trafficking and the super bowl

This coming weekend, thousands of people from all across the nation will descend on the DFW area to take part in the Super Bowl.  There will be parties, and tail-gates and lots of excitement.  But hidden behind all of the glamour and fun of this football game of all football games lies something many of us will never experience.

Sex-trafficking, a form of slavery, still exists in our world.  And though many of us may never see this horrific oppression, young children and women are exploited each year here in the United states and around the globe.

We may be thinking, “there is no way that this kind of slavery exists here in America, I mean we’re the land of the free, right?”  But, according to the DOJ, “In 2005, the Department of Justice reported there have been an estimated 100,000 to 150,000 sex slaves in the U.S. since 2001.”   In the same document, a 2009 study is cited: “In 2009, a University of Pennsylvania study estimated nearly 300,000 youth in the United States were at risk of being sexually exploited for commercial uses – “most of them runaways or thrown-aways,” said Ernie Allen, president of the NCMEC.”

The shocking fact is, that many of those enslaved are in our own back-yards, literally:  “In December 2007, research by the U.S. Department of Justice National Institute of Justice based on interviews with pimps and sexually exploited children in several U.S. cities found that most pimps manage one to three girls at a time and operate as follows:

o At least half appear to operate at the local level only.
o At least one quarter may be tied to city-wide crime rings (often engaged in drug sales as well as
prostitution) and are constantly looking for new recruits.
o About 15 percent are tied to regional or national networks that are well financed and organized,
in which the pimps communicate easily with one another electronically; provide support
services such as recruitment, selection, indoctrination, and movement of new girls; and
occasionally assist in locating and disciplining girls who escape from other pimps.
o About 10 percent appear to be tied to international sex crime networks and, through them,
actively participate in the international trafficking of children. Some pimps also are part of
international drug networks and may use children to move drugs in to and across the U.S.”

How can we be involved?  World Vision has some helpful resources on human trafficking, sex trafficking and exploitation.  This is something we cannot ignore.  It is a blot on society just as slavery in the ‘old days’ was, and abortion continues to be.  We can be their voice when they have none!

Sunday Meditation

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.”

Ephesians 6:10-18
