DOWN WITH SOLA SCRIPTURA!
I realize we should all know this by now, but within spiritually spineless evanjellyfish the Devil’s minions have been so successful with their constant refrain of, “Did God really say?”, that many are afraid to answer, “Yes; He did.” Jesus tells us — “Watch out for false prophets.

DOWN WITH SOLA SCRIPTURA
The Emergent rebellion against Sola Scriptura continues gaining strength and because evangelicalism only pays it lip service anyway subjective “experiences” with “God” will very quickly become the norm. You will continue to see leaders in the Emerging Church come out of the closet in their support of practicing homosexuals being accepted as Christians as Tony Jones already has.

Recently in Emergent Church Theologian Tony Jones and his Unrepentant Homosexual Christians here at Apprising Ministries we covered the story of the coming out of a very influential leader and theologian in the Emerging Church who declared his belief that unrepentant practicing homosexuals can be Christians. And even though I vigorously disagree with him I do commend Tony Jones for caring enough, and being man [...]
