It's this emotional false doctrine, preached in the ears of the young by foolish men, that leads to churches filled with those who think they are Christians because they have had some feeling of being "in love" with God!
Have they never repented, broken over their lies, lusting, adultery of the heart; as they sing their songs to "JEEZ-us", waving their arms in the same manner as the Hannah Montana fans? Are they still OBLIVIOUS to their DOOM?
Where is the changed life? Where is the desire to see souls saved from HELL?
It's NOT about being "in love" with Jesus but very much being grateful He saved ANYONE, especially YOU, who don't DESERVE saving! GRATITUDE over the compassion of God for NOT "smoking" us all drives you to tell others of His loving MERCY - not some ill-placed emotions.
Where are the MEN who will tell the TRUTH!?!

I find myself int eh strange experience of agreeing witht eh muslims. But the word "allah" should NOT be used to describe the Christian God. His name is YHWH and Jesus is His Son.

Evangelicalism has lost it's way when we do such programs without the PRIMARY EMPHASIS of how to present the Gospel to the Lost Biblically and effectively. Train the youth so he can be he the one he speaks to CAN be saved because they have all the right information. Demonstrations on how sharing your faith is done and practical applications of preaching the Gospel should be the primary category and required attendance: ALL these other initiatives are resolved when one is Born Again.
Without the Gospel, preached correctly, all these other attempts at works are nothing but a waste.

I tell you, also, it was WEIRD to see the universalist Hillsong United on the same bill as John Piper.less
Exactly who are you declaring we should be in unity with? Catholics who deny that we are saved by Grace alone, Jesus alone? Those who deny the Trinity? You do realize such as these will NOT be in Heaven, right? Better to speak the truth, hard as they may take it, than smile them into Hell.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to lose one's faith when you trust in Jesus ALONE to save you!!! Works RESULT from righteousness imparted to you by Jesus, works does not engender righteousness.

"where people can come to investigate Christianity without guilt or pressure and hear the Truth without any finger pointing" Well that leaves out the the Law and the Gospel then. See, the Law is designed to awaken the conscience (guilt) so the Gospel message is then able to show a man the only means to salvation. Unless a man sees his sin in the light of the Law, the Ten Commandments, he will not...more

@Paul1149 I fear you are missing the point, Paul. Was it a bad Christian witness for 17th Century English subjects to throw off their oppressors with violence when they continued to ignore the peaceful pleas and petitions of the "colonists"; The English government instead responding with even more killing, illegal taking of land and even heavier taxation?

Pakistan has IGNORED peaceful pleas long enough; It's time Pakistani Christians LEAVE or take stronger measures.
How would you respond if someone murdered your family, raped your wife and daughter, stole your sons, and then blamed you by throwing you into prison on trumped up charges of blaspeming an evil leader of a satanic religion?
How would you respond then to American Christian calls to "move forward non-violently, as an excellent witness to the Lord"?
Where in the Bible does it say letting your families be murdered is "as an excellent witness to the Lord."???
Consider what you are saying...

The USA is here because Christians had enough of oppression and it is high time Christians in Pakistan follow suit.
Why advocate people defending themselves, even take over a nation that has oppressed them? Is it not in OUR CONSTITUTION in the USA that it is a right of all peoples to be FREE?
Free your nation Pakistanis! Stop the Muslim genocide of Christians in Pakistan!
You may ask, "Do they have that right?"
Well let me ask you, did we in the USA have that right?
Did the citizens of England in the "colonies" have the right to take up arms against England and establish the most free nation that has ever existed?
Where in the Bible does Jesus say we should not defend and PROTECT the weak, the helpless and our families against an oppressive people and government?
What do you think Christian?
But remember, you in America, and the many many nations the USA has freed and kept free, are in a free society, free from molestation, BECAUSE Christians defended you, protected you, made a safe place for you.

Jesus came to save liars and thieves and those who lust from the eternal payment they deserve from a Just and Holy God. They need merely to repent and trust in the Savior. The sinner must willingly come, repent and entrust themselves to the promises of God, there will not be any "accidental" Christians. Only Jesus Saves, Bill Graham. Patrick Burwell OnlyJesusSaves.com
It's time for Christians worldwide to stop allowing their families to be murdered at the hands of the bloodthirsty Muslims. The United States of America exists because Christians had ENOUGH. Pakistani Christians need to follow suit or more of their families will needlessly die. Patrick Burwell OnlyJesusSaves.com
I submit there are two tracks to Christianity: The HERETICS and the Christians. We are seeing a clear distinction and a wonderful PARTING OF WAYS between the false converts that make up the majority of Christianity in this world today and the Believers. HALLELUYAH!

There ARE two different Christian Churches. One is the apostate ecumenical church of the "luke-warm" heretics that Jesus will spew out of His mouth. In their churches there is no penitence, no conviction: all are welcome and no one is rejected for their practiced sin. IN this church all works righteous religions become one.

There ARE two different Christian Churches. One is the apostate ecumenical church of the "luke-warm" heretics that Jesus will spew out of His mouth.

The other is the persecuted Body of Christ Jesus himself. In this you find the repentant self-denying, Jesus glorifying Saint. Here you find the narrow road traveler, the few and far between.
It was the religious "men of Israel" that called for and demanded the murder of Jesus.
There is a cost for the repentant follower of Jesus and that price is more often meeted out by the hands of the professing false convert than the uncaring lost.

Wow. A pastor that actually will discuss repentance IN the church body? Excellent! I only remind him the sinner is "marginalizing" himself by his own unrepentant heart. Seek the lost while we still can. Patrick Burwell, OnlyJesusSaves.com Response@OnlyJesusSaves.com
