Well, even Christian denominations have "trouble" other denominations emphasizing certain verses...handling snakes in Mark...or Heb. 6:4-6 for the once-saved, always-saved crowd...
The issue is NOT Biblical unanimity or uniformity before you let anybody touch you within 10-foot pole space.
The issue is that Joseph Smith declared spiritual war on all Christian sects back in the 1830s. Mormons then enshrined that initial vision into "scripture" in the 1870s. (IOW, it's not just mere "opinion" status...Beck can't play fast & loose with either Mormon "scripture" nor the heart of its "scripture" -- its supposed initial vision upon which the faith is based).
So, yes, folks will "militate" vs. very specific Scriptural passages. (We all, frankly, have wrestled with one or another or a lot at various times in our lives). That's not the point.
The point is "Do you invite somebody who at their very core thinks of you as a Christian apostate?"
If a Muslim started believing all the things Beck believes, started espousing them as a radio talk show talkinghead, but still believed all Christians are "infidels" like Muslims do, does that effect whether he gets an invite or not?
Uh.. actually I didnt care.
It’s their school. If they want to invite Obama, then that’s their loss.
Imho, he’s a good man who loves his country. I admire that.
“Controlling content” ???
You were the one who said to me and askerd me...(# 61)
“BTW: What is the technique you use to avoid Obama? All I have is AM radio, and it’s no shield whatsoever!
How do you *DO* that?”
Do I need to ask what you meant by that ???
All who believe in the Son of God know in their hearts that this testimony is true. Those who don’t believe this are actually calling God a liar because they don’t believe what God has testified about his Son. 1 John 5:10
Which son of the mormon god would that be ???
the mormon jesus or Lucifer ???
I hope you will put up with a little of my foolishness; but you are already doing that. For I am jealous for you with the jealousy of God himself. I promised you as a pure virgin bride to one husband—Christ. But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure and undivided devotion to Christ. For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough. But I don’t consider myself inferior in any way to those “super apostles” who teach such things. may not be a trained speaker, but I do have knowledge. We have made this perfectly clear to you in every way. 2 Corinthians 11:1-6
We went!
Would it matter which? Both are false & against the Faithful & True Christ.
I agree with you, I say pillut48 has the right take on this -- atta boy, Glenn.
I wouldn’t do it were I in charge of Liberty U., but my point is that they are willing to invite conservatives, without regard to their faith belief. But then, it’s common in this day & age for Christian organizations to blend into and/or look like the world.

Annie how do you explain your previous posts that appear to support the tenets of mormonism ??
Re-read them...I think you’ll find I’ve never supported the cult in any of my posts. I’ve simply stated that Liberty has invited non-believers in the past.

Free Republic wouldn’t exist if Conservatives believed in “controlling content”.

This thread is in the Religion Forum and the concern is about the anti-Christian religion that Beck believes in and not his politics...
I’m often accused of that on FR!
Well, you would appear to have a gun. :)
Jerry Falwell labeled Calvinism as heresy. It is very strange that Liberty University would have certain heretic speak. And, theologically speaking, if Beck is a Mormon, he is a heretic.
I have read all the replies up to this one. Who said alcohol was a sin?
