Gal 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. 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. 10 For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Ken Silva reports that NT Wright, proponent of the false gospel "New Perspective on Paul", will be teaching at Tim Keller's church on Apri 20, 2010.
This is a growing trend among "Evangelicals" including "Reformers". John Piper offered Douglas Wilson, a proponent of a similar view called "Federal Vision". I discuss that here.
Here's the issue that I keep seeing among "pastors": truth is in everything. This explains why its so impossible for pastors to totally reject a teacher, a book, a movement, a church, a ministry when it fails the test of Scripture.
How many Gospels are there?
How many ways of justification?
There is but ONE Gospel and ONE way of justification. Any other is false and damnable, according to Gal. 1.
It seems that most Reformers, most Evangelicals, think the Roman Catholic Church is valid on some level which is why they continue to not only buy into its fathers and history, but now they are buying into its backdoor false gospel that will appeal to foolish and fleshly "evangelicals" in order to reign them into the "invisible church" (aka Rome). Some have already signed on via the ETC and the Manhattan Declaration. Is this a surprise?
Is not Jesus the Lord? Why do you call Him "Lord, Lord" yet not do what HE has commanded?
2Jo 1:9 Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
2Jo 1:10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, 11 for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works.
Rom. 16: 17 I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. 18 For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.
2 Tim. 2: 16 Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. 2Tim 2: 17 Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18 who have wandered away from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some.
2Tim. 4: 14 Alexander the metalworker did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will repay him for what he has done. 15 You too should be on your guard against him, because he strongly opposed our message.
2Co 6:14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? 15 What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?
