The YBPDLNPL is generally published infrequently, but based on the exploits of the megachurch pastors posts can spike for a period of time. If you would like on or off of this list please FReepmail me.

...led a commitment ceremony with "traditional Christian elements"...

The problem that leaps out at me on this one is that Christ *very* strongly disapproves of such ceremonies.

Trevor Douglas McLaren, 28, wed Owen Patrick Ryan

No, he didn't. They committed a perverse mockery of a wedding; they pledged themselves to a life of buggery.

Brian McLaren, led a commitment ceremony with "traditional Christian elements" afterward.

Nonsense. Traditional Christian elements do not celebrate sodomy.

They did not wed.
They had a ceremony where they pretended they were normal.

Why do these Godless pervs want to have the trappings of Christianity without Christianity?

But that later became divided as some pastors, including Mark Driscoll, left over theological concerns

How can there be such concerns without any theology whatsoever??

I guess not having theology was the concern?

And the perversion continues. When do we sanctify sex with livestock and corpses? It will be the next step.

Same old, same old. Another compromising Christian preacher becomes a post-Christian preacher.

The law of God has not changed and will not. The law demands and condemns. Neither has His gospel changed, nor will it change. The gospel promises and forgives. Unless one keeps these two straight (no pun intended) and well distinguished the one from the other, there will be no end of confusion and every variation of misbelief and then unbelief will be the result.

Love is not helping your son by giving him a shove into everlasting damnation. It is giving your son your hand, helping to pull him away from hell’s fire, burning hotly at his feet.

No he didn’t. Calling it marriage does not make it marriage.

I was thinking about the reality you speak of today, while out riding my bike. It seems odd, but the God who rightly condemns is the same God who provides salvation from His own rightful condemnation!

Pretty amazing to me, one who needs such a God!

That is unfair. Faithful Protestant Christians believe in God’s plan for sexuality and for marriage. This issue is tearing denominations apart. The orthodox who are seeing their church’s embrace immorality are torn apart by this. It has caused great grief for many Protestant Christians who see their denominations betraying Scripture and their church’s own laws on this matter.

Brian McLaren is a HERETIC, plain and simple. He is preaching another/different o-called "gospel". He is preaching another/false "christ" and he is deceiving multitudes with his perverted "theology" and "god' of his own imagination.

I pray that he will repent, turn from his wicked ways and come to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ before it is eternally too late for him, his family and multitudes whom he is decieving.

P.S. I like your graphic. It is so sad, but true. Rick Warren and his unbiblical, "Seeker-Sensitive" so-called "philosophy of Ministry" model is also heretical.

"but the God who rightly condemns..."

God does not condemn. We choose damnation and God respects our choice.

Peace be with you.
