Today gay affirming “pastor” Jay Bakker shares his dream:

Emergent and Calvinist are brothers & sisters in Christ.(Like it or not) And one day,we will be together forever at the family reunion… (Online source)

Apparently Bakker really likes the taste of red herring. Emergent and Calvinism have exactly zero to do with his biblically untenable teaching that people of the same sex can be married in the eyes of Jesus, Who just happens to be our Creator.

Perhaps Bakker, who according to “pastor” Connie Waters of  New Bridge Faith Community is a real scholar, can stop confusing the issues long enough to peruse my latest post Gay Marriage: Backlash Against Anglican Leader Expected. I’d be absolutely fascinated to read his “scholarly” and biblical critique.

If Bakker’s so sure his gay affirming foolishness can stand biblical scrutiny my friend Chris Rosebrough of Pirate Christian Radio has offered to meet Bakker in a public debate. But you’ll see in Fearful Jay Bakker that Rob Bell has a better chance to become president of The Master’s Seminary than Bakker dare meet Rosebrough.

Now just for the record the egregiously ecumenical Emerging Church aka Emergent Church—morphing into Emergence Christianity—(EC) is not a move of the Holy Spirit. The only people who will be at “the family reunion,” quite obviously, are those actually in the Family of God.

And the only people in this Family are those who have been regenerated by the grace of God alone; through faith alone, in Christ alone. We may differ on the order in which salvation happens but not on the Gospel itself.

It’s not about systematic theology, and don’t kid yourself, followers of this EC pseudo-Christian cult have theirs as well. What it’s about is stated below, from the inerrant and infallible Word of God; and Jesus did tell us — “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (John 10:27, NASB):

“Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.” (Leviticus 18:22)

Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)

You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. (Romans 8:9)

Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test? (2 Corinthians 13:5)

 The question for Jay Bakker is: Will Bakker finally hear His Voice here so that he may repent of his antibiblical stance and homopression of GLBTQ people for whom Christ died?
