Fellow Christians, what do you think about this interesting LA Times article?

Question

http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-op-allen9jul09,0,2668973.story?coll=la-news-comment-opinions

Answer 1

It is my opinion that anytime the Diety of Christ is lessen or done away with and sin is exalted, that religtion will fall. God does not bless a mess. It is only scripture coming to pass. When I read that article, I could see in my Spiritual being that Satan is truly busy and about his business. But alas! The Holy Spirit is also about the Father's business and souls are coming into the Kingdom every day. That was very enlightening. Thanks

Answer 2

i'm not likely to look on the object because TIME isn't frequently nicely truthfully worth the time. notwithstanding, Agnosticism is a position about the nature of know-how, about what's knowable and what's not. try to be an agnostic atheist as extremely as you could an agnostic theist. What you won't be able to be is an agnostic. you want to be agnostic in connection with some thing. As for atheism, it really is a noun type of an adjective that has a unmarried particular meaning, the shortcoming of perception in deities. There are numerous atheistic religions, that run the gamut from lofty, time examined procedures of useful Buddhism, all the way down to that juvenile antisocial of a faith, LeVeyan Satanism (and that i advise antisocial in the nicest actual way). So evidently an arbitrary class like "non-believer" should be subdivided. yet does it extremely carry out any purpose, because there have been in no way any claims on the area of non-believers of a unified perception equipment.

Answer 3

It's an outrage! I can accept women preachers. Afterall, many women leaders were recorded in the Bible..But to mock the Lord Jesus Christ and the Trinity is an outrage! These people have no real foundation on the Bible. I think we should look into our own local churches to see what the Bible teachers are teaching our kids. Is it based on the Bible? Who knows, we could be letting false teachers indoctrinate our kids. As is said in the article, "When a Christian church cannot bring itself to endorse a bedrock Christian theological statement repeatedly found in the New Testament, it is not a serious Christian church"

Answer 4

No matter what they teach you in English class, there exists no reporter that is completely non-biased. This article proves that point. Humans will be humans.

There are so many rules/laws in the Bible. It's impossible to go through a day without breaking just a few of them. Why choose one sin to condemn over another, such as being gay? Jesus loves everyone, and I really think that if we would just respect everyone equally regardless of their personal lifestyle choices, the world would be just that much better.

Answer 5

Wow....
Personally, I couldn't belong to a church that didn't follow the Bible or changed the meaning of the Bible, genders, etc.
It's good to see that people are opting for sound doctrine, and that the mega liberal religions are dying.
The bummer is....they call themselves Christians....I find that I want to clarify that I am a Christ-follower to let other believers know I'm a sister.
I'm also afraid that if America doesn't turn itself around that God will not continue to bless us. I believe He has Blessed our country because if was founded on Christian principles. We are making a mokery of God. I'm hoping there is revival...I love America...I cherish my freedom...I'm thinking we may lose it. I know, though, that I won't lose my salvation.
All in all it was a sad, disgusting article and it makes me loathe political correctness even more.

Answer 6

I say that when the truth is held up
it draws people to the light
but when the truth is trampled underfoot
people go out into the night

Hopefully they find someplace where the light is still shining - like a crazy in love with Jesus right wing evangelical born again christian brotherly love chapel filled with the Holy Ghost.

Or something like that!!!!!

Thank you for sharing this article.

Answer 7

What an interesting article! Thank you for providing that link! I must admit I have been very worried the past few years over what to me has appeared the moral collapse of so many big churches. That piece gives me new hope. Praise God that His people (most, anyway) are staying the course!
Blessings to you!

Answer 8

I wish they would use the correct term "homosexual".
I think the article portrays the current state of the Episcopalians, Anglicans, Presbyterians and Liberal Lutheran synods in an accurate and dire situation. Yeshua, most likely is looking at a very sad prostitute for a bride. One that must be purged (not by itself) at the judgement seat.

Answer 9

It's a really sad thing to see our Christian brothers open the door for the devil. But I think this is what it looks like when that happens.

There is something in the scriptures about a falling away. Something that we are to look out for in the End Times. I think that this is only the beginning.

Cheer up Saints! It's going to get worse!

Answer 10

It looks like there are more decent liberal christians than I thought. Some of them go a bit far though (female jesus0 but denying his divinity sounds right. There isn't any evidance that he existed at all.

Jesus' teachings were very left wing and predominantly Marxist. He wanted the establised authority to change

Answer 11

WE are in the Last Days.
GOD is going to Bring us together, as a Family, not in a building called a church---WE are the CHURCH, and WE can MEET (Gather and Assemble) anywhere WE want to, including in the same Building every Sunday, if WE chose.
To add to that, we are a Nation with-in a Nation, the Children of GOD are a Nation---not a bunch of people playing church.
All Religion's are False.
Being a Child of GOD is REALITY---WE know who we ARE-----Bingo!
