Rick Warren

I thank God that Jesus is not hung up on denominations, He can save anyone and everyone no matter what denomination they are in.

 

Being a member of a church denomination is not enough though... it takes truly believing in the Jesus Christ of the Bible, and I fail to see where RW actually believes in the TRUE Christ. At the end of the day, I could care less whether someone is a Baptist, a methodist, a presby, a pentacostal, etc. etc., if they are saved, they are saved! I am not going to fight the brethren, I have bigger fish to fry so to speak, I am more concerned about calling people like RW out for their false teachings.

 

Har har har you are so funny... what is your problem? you have been just attacking me left and right since I signed up...

 

Would one of Rick Warren's detractors show me where he denies that Jesus is the only way to Heaven?

That video "exposing Rick Warren" was merely an 8 minute rant about whether or not he supported California Proposition 8 (making gay marriage illegal.)

So where does Rick Warren say Jesus is not the only way to salvation?

 

Here is one instance,
RW believes that Christians and muslims serve the same god.

I wish I could find the video I watched just yesterday where I saw RW say that there was many paths to God, this is heresy! Jesus IS the ONLY way!

 

Here RW calls Jesus isa! Jesus IS NOT isa!

RW is also buddies with Dr Daniel Amen who teaches and does kundalini yoga, and weird tantric sex teachings.
Here we see RW talking to Dr Daniel Amen about meditating etc. etc. they talk as if meditation is good for us... well it's not.
RW had EVERY opportunity to present the Gospel, but all he does is either talk about himself or ridicule those in the Christian faith.

 

I think the best conclusion about RW is that he should not be a Pastor, or in any type of a leadership position. He may indeed be a Christian. Christians hold all kinds of errors. But when they are in leadership, those errors multiply. Pastors need to be better than this. Their job, literally, is to protect the flock from errors like this.

Warren is man that makes erroneous mistakes to please particular audiences, then backtracks a little to please other audiences. That's a huge problem.

Bottom line, he needs to be called out by sound men, and very few in the Church are willing to do this, in fact, many run to his defense for the sake of unity. But they need to keep in mind that false teachings also hurt unity. And when a guy like Warren makes these errors it spreads like wildfire.

Here's a good interview with John MacArthur on the subject.

Straight Talk About the Seeker Church Movement

 

Perhaps go into your browser's history file from yesterday and find it there?

I would have to see what he means by "many paths to God" in context. A case could be made that there are many paths to God--hearing the gospel (Romans 10:14), observing nature (Romans 1:20; Psalm 19:1-2), having people witness to someone, there's even reports of Muslims having dreams about Jesus. All these things can be a pathway to God.

Let's be clear though--there is salvation only through Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12).

I'm not defending Warren. I'm looking for an unambiguous statement by Rick Warren that there is salvation outside Jesus Christ.

 

Hmm so just because he has a church with what over 50,000 members makes him a man of God? Joel Osteen probably has an even bigger church! so do MANY of the heretics, false prophets / teachers, etc! Broad is the way to hell and many go! but narrow is the way to Heaven and few go!

It's not all about the numbers... it's about JESUS! are they saved, or are they not! RW does not preach the Gospel! he is self centered and egotistical.
