DOUG PAGITT DECONSTRUCTED
By Ken Silva pastor-teacher on Jan 21, 2008 in Current Issues
Apprising Ministries points you a fine post over at The Down Grade by pastor John Chisham called An Emergent Manifesto of Truth.
In it Chisham takes quotes from some teachings of the Emergent Church, many of which come from well known leader in the emerging church Doug Pagitt, and then contrasts them with what the Bible actually says.
This way you will be see for yourself the neo-liberalism inherent within the theology of the cult of the Emergent Church. Pastor Chisham begins:
These are some quotes which I have gathered on different views of truth in the Emergent Church. I have compared them to scripture verses. I wish to challenge those in emergent thought to show me if the statement made by the author or speaker is truth, or a shading of the truth (how much must one shade the truth before it becomes a lie?)
You can take Chisham’s challenge and read his entire post here.
