MINGLING WITH PAGANS
By Ken Silva pastor-teacher on Jan 23, 2009 in Emergent Church
Ever wonder what happens when the Lord’s people do not follow His command to come away from the pagan world but instead mingle with “the other” and begin to borrow from their religions:
they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs. They worshiped their idols, which became a snare to them. They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons. They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was desecrated by their blood. They defiled themselves by what they did; by their deeds they prostituted themselves. Therefore the LORD was angry with his people and abhorred his inheritance. (Psalm 106:35-40)
Yeah but it’ll be different this time in the Emergence, right…
