So.. I have been reading Why We're Not Emergent. To say the least it is a must read for young pastors and people who are in ministry. It has me thinking a lot about how church has changed over the past twenty years. And somehow,some of us have lost our way.. or (it's my opnion that they have lost their way.) The emergent church has become more and more popular over the past five or six years or so... Espescially with leaders like Rob Bell and Erwin Raphael McManus. The problem is, I guess I must just be a little old fashioned when I say I like to stick with scripture. Some of these leaders. (not saying it's the two mentioned above) but some have completely lost their way over the course of their ministry, or they may have never had the way at all. For these people to say that scripture is not the final authority and is just inspirational writings that we should live by is IMO blasphemous and not the truth. Also to say that God could somehow be a woman is kinda wrong to.. And the very mention of the virgin birth not being necessary IS WRONG! Well I have finished my ranting for now and I dont want to overload this post. So for now I will let you think about this... G'day!
