In the article, we are evidently looking at three non-Christians who have persuaded themselves (not to mention a few others) that they are Christians. Maybe God will jerk the slack out of them, but things don't look too good for them at this point.

Brock, Parker, and Crossan are all semi-Pelagians or worse. Brock comes from the Campbellite tradition (which denies original sin altogether); Parker comes from the Wesleyan-Arminian tradition (which claims that the depravity inherent in original sin is neutralized by universal prevenient grace); and Crossan comes from the Romanist position which assumes that, whatever original sin is, it is easily washed away by holy water.

A little Reformed theology would be helpful to the author of the article, I think.
