NEW EVANGELICALISM WIDELY MISSES THE MARK OF TRUE DEVOTION TO JESUS CHRIST


In the quote that follows from Oswald Chambers those with eyes to see will then see where the semi-pelagian Ecumenical Church of Deceit of new evangelicalism which spawned Rick Warren and Erwin McManus and Rob Bell and T.D. Jakes and Joel Osteen widely misses the Biblical mark of Truth:

Jesus did not say – Make converts to your way of thinking, but look after My sheep, see that they get nourished in the knowledge of Me… People do not want to be devoted to Jesus, but only to the cause He started. Jesus Christ is a source of deep offence to the educated mind of to-day that does not want Him in any other way than as a Comrade. Our Lord’s first obedience was to the will of His Father, not to the needs of men; the saving of men was the natural outcome of His obedience to the Father.

If I am devoted to the cause of humanity only, I will soon be exhausted and come to the place where my love will falter; but if I love Jesus Christ personally and passionately, I can serve humanity though men treat me as a door-mat.
(Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest, 124)
