LEONARD SWEET ON THE GOSPEL
By Ken Silva pastor-teacher on May 27, 2010 in Current Issues, Emergence Christianity, Emergent Church, Features
Yesterday Emerging Church evangelical theologian Leonard Sweet tweeted:
“Go tell your friends what great things the Lord has done for you” (Mark 5:19). The “good news” is about “great things” stories . . . (Online source)
No Leonard Sweet, the Gospel is about repentance and the forgiveness of sins in Jesus’ Name; the great thing our Great God and Savior Jesus Christ did in His finished work on the Cross.
Odd that he would tweet the above because Leonard Sweet himself wrote, along with Frank Viola, in their “Manifesto” last year:
Christians don’t point people to core values; Christians point people to the cross.
