The sinfully ecumenical Emergent Church aka the Emerging Church has proven to be a Trojan Horse where Satan was able to off-load his ne0-Gnostic mystic corruption Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM) right within the very heart of the church visible. So now a large part of our online apologetics and discernment labors Apprising Ministries is to document the New Downgrade within evangelicalism, which accelerated when its own mainstream made the fateful decision to more fully embrace these vipers.

I’ve told you before that this spurious CSM—the refried Roman Catholic mysticism “discovered” by Living Spiritual Teacher and Quaker mystic Richard Foster, and now perpetrated as supposed Spiritual Formation with an able assist from his spiritual twin SBC minister Dallas Willard, was a core doctrine in the EC right from its hatching in hell. Having kicked out the pillar of sola Scriptura a now upgraded to the Emerging Church 2.0 is spreading its own new postmodern form of “big tent” Progressive Christianity—a Liberalism 2.0.

As you’ll see in Brian McLaren Admits Ken Silva Was Right the cloaking device has been switched off and many of these rebels against the final authority of God’s Word aren’t even trying to hide their Emergence Christianity anymore. I pointed out earlier that the latest EC apostasia-palooza called the Wild Goose Festival (WGF), which I covered in The Emerging Church On A Wild Goose Chase, was some ten years in the making.

In their time at The Build-A-God Shop the EC had been furiously constructing a version of the mush god of mysticism with a man-shaped hole in his/her/its heart; and as it heads out upon its spiritual long road to nowhere we know The Wild Goose Of The Emerging Church Is Not The Holy Spirit. Today Steve Knight of the Emerging Church And Its TransFORM Network would tweet about the Wild Goose Festival:

The link takes us to Wild Goose Festival where we find the video Peterson Toscano: 2-Minute Monologue on Sexual Identity below and get a little taste of what went on at WGF. Knight tells us Peterson Toscano:

describes himself : “Quirky Queer Quaker.” He is the creator of Doin’ Time in the Homo No Mo Halfway House & Transfigurations, a play about transgender Bible characters.

In this monologue presented at the Wild Goose Festival, Toscano tells his life story on sexual identity in under two minutes.

Toscano, who “co-founded BeyondExGay.com & is a Quaker,”[1] is also known for Transfigurations—Transgressing Gender in the Bible where he draws upon:

inspiration from interviews with transgender and genderqueer individuals, Peterson Toscano weaves their experiences into the stories of transgender and gender-variant people from the Hebrew and Christian scriptures. (Online source)
