POPULAR EMERGING CHURCH WEBSITE THE OOZE SLITHERS OUT OF THE GLBTQ-AFFIRMING CLOSET

DOWN WITH SOLA SCRIPTURA! 

RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE ITSELF NO LONGER DUE RESPECT...NEVER AGAIN 

Little doubt left, at the continued leftward lean of the Emerging Church aka Emergent Church, now morphing into Emergence Christianity, de-formation of the faith attacking the cardinal doctrine of Sola Scriptura. In the June 22, 2009 article Marriage for the Masses the hugely popular, and aptly named, EC website The Ooze we’re told it’s “time to shout for civil equality.”

Dawn Hood-Patterson tells us:

Recently my husband and I celebrated our anniversary… Marriage, for my husband and I, is just as much a spiritual experience as it is a civil/legal lifestyle. What makes it spiritual is our commitment to such a purpose.

The church no longer has a corner on the marriage market—it hasn’t for a while…  Homosexuals deserve to have the same liberty that I have. I can’t imagine not being allowed to share that commitment… (Online source

And there is such a delicious irony to be had when, all while encouraging a reinterpretation of marriage, Hood-Patterson then writes:

We live in a world in which the 1950’s understanding of the word “commitment” in marriage is being redefined at the whims of those who enter into the vow.

Um, you mean precisely as the militantly aggressive homosexual lobby that you support in  your article is doing? Here’s some sage advice: Leave them, they are blind guides. The Creator Himself, Christ Jesus of Nazareth, did not stutter the first time when He stood here upon His Own planet and said in no uncertain terms:

“Have you not read that He who created them [Jesus; see-John 1:1-3] from the beginning MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE, and said, ‘FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH’? “So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.” (Matthew 19:4-6, NASB)

We might also say, what God did not join together i.e. homosexual couples, let not man join together. As professional Christian apologist Dr. Walter Martin (1928-1989) used to quip, “So, what exactly is there to discuss; if you actually believe what the Bible says?” I will warn you again; there is a threatening same-sex storm, which is picking up speed through the embrace of corrupt Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism within the alleged “Protestant” sectors of the visible church.

And this storm, while currently just slightly off the coast of the mainstream evangelical community, is right now approaching hurricane force…
