Reimagining Christianity
Isaiah 5:20
20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
I have recently returned from a discernment conference that took place in Burbank, CA.
The new heresy of the church toward Kingdom Now instead of later was discussed.
The false premise that we need to get the planet taken over so Jesus can come back.
What utter foolishness and heresy from people like C.Peter Wagner, and Ted Haggard.
It seems we are now normalizing occult practices through vehicles like The Emergent Church and there is also a move to bring all religions together.
This we know according to the bible is the false religion-the woman riding the beast.
You really need to be on your toes and look at whats happening in the church.
You also need to get back into reading the scriptures if you are going to be able to discern through this time of great deception.
There was a article today that came out in Christianity Today about a man who believes the Holy Spirit moves through all religions.
Here are some quotes from that article.
"His central thesis is that, because the Spirit of God is universally active in creation and new creation, "the religions of the world, like everything else that exists, are providentially sustained by the Spirit of God for divine purposes." Where most Pentecostals see the devil's work, Yong sees the Spirit's. Concretely, that means Christians should be open to learning from and being enriched by the Spirit's work in world religions. Dialogue must take place alongside evangelism, he argues, so that all the religions including Christianity can learn from each other what the Spirit is doing."
"But Yong seems to be saying more. In his theology, the world religions are instruments of God, play a role in God's providence, and have much to contribute to Christianity. "[C]hristians should be open to learning from other religious traditions because of the unfinished character of Christian identity," he writes. "While we are being formed into the eschatological image of Jesus, we continue to look through the glass dimly. If others have something to say about God, should we not at least listen both sympathetically and critically?"
Here is a link to the entire article-

Gods word however directly conflicts with what this man has to say in 2 Corinthians 6:14-18
"14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?
15 And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?
16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people.
17 Therefore Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.
18 I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty.
Gods word is in direct opposistion to what this Mr Yong is proposing and I heartily suggest you regect what Mr Yong has to say because it conflicts and denies what God states in His written truth.
Mr Yongs stance also coincides with what Sandy Simpson exposed in this article.

In this time of deception are you ready for the return of our Savior Jesus Christ?
Will you get left behind?
Even in Pauls time the Christians then were eagerly waiting for Christs Return.
So shouldnt we be out spreading the true gospel instead of seeking a experience with some god?
Dont you want to hear?
"Well done good and faithful servant."
Or are you busy just living like those in the time of Noah?
Something to think about.
