Spong wraps up evil in the cotton wool of concern for people. In putting poeple first he relegates God to last or to irrelelvance and non-exitance. In his unbelief he attacks the fundamentals of Christianity and in doing so removes God from His throne and puts himself firmly in God’s place. He indeed is a wolf in a shepherds clothing.
In the end it will be those of traditional Christian faith, like this Pope who will keep the fire of Christian faith going and help it to spread.
