Mister satanic preacher... you are acting against the WORD OF GOD. We will not follow you... we will not comply.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.

2 Peter 2:1-3

But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed. And in their greed they will exploit you with false words. Their condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.

1 John 4:1

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Matthew 24:24

For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.

Matthew 7:15

“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

Matthew 7:21-23

“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

Revelation 22:18-19

I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.

2 Timothy 4:2-4

Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.

Galatians 1:8

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.

2 Timothy 4:3-4

For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.

Hebrews 13:5-6

Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?”

John 8:44

You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Ephesians 6:10-18

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, ...

Matthew 7:15-16

“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?

2 Peter 2:1

But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.

1 Timothy 3:1-16

The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive, for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God’s church? ...

Galatians 1:9

As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.

2 Corinthians 11:10-13

As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be silenced in the regions of Achaia. And why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do! And what I do I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do. For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.

Despite the fact that every other day I come across a passage in my Bible telling me we should not?

Oops, he better replace his Bible. Apparently Genesis has fallen out of his present copy.

This Baptist church has joined the Church of What’s Happenin’ Now in throwing the teachings of the Bible into the garbage and preaching to the heathen with itching ears.

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4

A great many people are turned off by religion - not because of the ostensible reasons of “strictness” in the face of chaotic secularity, but rather the opposite - they are too loose, and believe nothing. What’s the point of believing and going to Church if I can get my religion from the evening news and HBO?

Most so-called “priests” and “pastors” don’t demand enough of themselves, or of their parish.

"Have ye not read, that He who made man from the beginning, made them male and female? For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be in one flesh." --The Red Words in the New Testament

You do not mess with the causes or purposes God specifically made when he created a secondary cause as a means to express love towards Him.

One of the weaknesses undermining the Christian faith is the mediocre to incompetent educational level of so many in the pastorate. This man's article reveals not only scanty religious understanding, it also displays appalling ignorance of the real world. Obviously, the Baptist church is not what it used to be, when it can entrust its souls to the equivalent of someone whose education amounts to reading the religion section of TIME Magazine for few weeks.

It is a historical fact, that any civilization of any proportion, that, then, allows sexual deviancy, (which LGBT is), is thereafter, not long for posterity.

Too bad you didn’t work libertarian into the title, it would have attracted our several freepers that are pushing the homosexual agenda and libertarianism in the name of Jesus, as the Christian position.

Sigh.

If someone will not submit to the authority of Scripture or the authority of two millennia of church teaching, why do they bother with Christianity? This "pastor" should spend Sunday mornings relaxing with his peeps down at the coffee shop and knock off the pretence of being a Christian.

A little intellectual honesty is all I ask for.

For those attending Kirkwood Baptist Church....LEAVE RIGHT NOW.

Never darken those doors again.

About the “senior pastor” from the church’s website:

Scott was born in Oklahoma. He has a B.A. from Oklahoma Baptist University (Religion/History), a M.Div. in biblical languages from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, a Th.M. in philosophy and theology from Princeton Theological Seminary; and a Ph.D. in ancient philosophy from the University of Oklahoma.

His dissertation was on the epistemology of Xenophanes’ natural theology,

but his real interest is food and music… and working with others to understand the relevance and impact of ancient wisdom.

Just what in the world is ancient wisdom?? Princeton must have really messed him up. If he has a MDiv in Biblical Languages he’s totally chosen to ignore what he learned...or should’ve learned.

His real interest is food and music?

This guys in the wrong line of work.

ahh...i see the problem runs deep in this church...part of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship which allows for women in the pastorate and believes its ok to be homosexual.

1990 – Because of controversy within the Southern Baptist Convention, KBC began to give consideration to alternative means of funding programs, agencies, and mission endeavors that to that point had been channeled through the SBC.

1991 -1992 – The Cooperative Baptist Fellowship formed and moderate Baptists, who felt uncomfortable with the current activities and decisions of the SBC, were able to unite and move toward some common goals. After much discussion in open meetings, deliberation through the Church Leadership Council, and prayer on the part of individuals, Kirkwood Baptist Church voted in 1992 to no longer send money through SBC boards and agencies, but to give directly the support of missions through the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship.

March 14, 2001 – KBC members present at the regular business meeting unanimously approved a resolution from the Church Leadership Council stating that we disaffiliate ourselves from both the Southern Baptist and Missouri Baptist Conventions.
