“A new World Religion is forming right before our eyes. It’s been forming for several years, and sadly the churchs have played right along with it. Over the past few years, as I have watched certain things play out; I have said repeatedly Where is the Church? Where is the Baptist association, where is the Methodist association, where is the Southern Baptist association, why aren’t they speaking out? I am not pounding on any one denomination. But if you are old enough you will know what the term, “The Bible Belt” means. Well the Bible Belt is disappearing. More and more Pastor’s of the “New Religion” are speaking out telling us don’t read the Bible, it’s full of hate. This quote from Adam Hamilton show’s just that. (He was the pastor chosen to replace Giglio at the inaugruation. This is what he say’s about the Bible:
“I was raised in a church that says: The Bible says it, I believe it, and that settles it. And that really works well as long as you don’t read very much of the Bible,” Hamilton said during the sermon entitled The Bible and Sexuality. “But I would probably still find myself on the conservative side of this issue were it not for all the people that I have met.”
There are denominations that used to be strong, and a big part of morality in the US, that are crumbling and becoming divided over issues like gay marriage, abortion, religious conviction. I blame this in part on the rise of the “New Age” teachings about the Bible and the Gospel of Christ. Since when is it OK to throw away the teachings of the Bible, and call them outdated, and say Oh that doesn’t fit our religion today. It’s hateful, and we have to Love as Christ commanded. Not only are they twisting the scriptures, but they are teaching false doctrine and are leading millions astray. There are many, Bible passages that warn against this, Mt. 24:35 Jesus said “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” Proverbs 30:5-6 “Every word of God is flawless; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him. Do not add to his words, or He will rebuke you and prove you a liar.” 2Cor. 2:17 “Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God.” 2Cor. 4:2 “Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.” 2Peter 1:19 “And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in you hearts.”
And I could go on and on. I don’t understand where these Pastor’s are getting the idea that the Bible is outdated, and their version is right. The Bible is very clear on issues of sexual immorality, murder, and the church.
Even if you throw away the Old Testament as so many have done, you still find warnings against sexual immorality. Romans 1:24 “Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. The exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator-who is forever praised. Amen.” That’s just one verse there are many in the new testament. So how can you turn away from the Bible and teach only the parts that feel good?
Back to my point, Satan has infiltrated the church’s on such a grand scale, and replaced it with the rock star church’s of today, and it’s so clever. He knew that he couldn’t take away the body of Christ (Christ’s church) so he set about quietly to infiltrate and degrade the Bible, God’s word and Christ’s testamony. How clever! We now have so many church’s to choose from, so many doctrines to choose from, that if your running from God, and seeking a message that fits your lifestyle, instead of fitting your lifestyle with what God say’s it should be; you don’t have to look very far. And it’s so much in the public eye, that even the die hard evangelicals are crumbling and cow towing to what the devil wants people to hear.
Revelation 18:4 “Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues.”

You’ve pretty much described the state of the church today. It is basically apostate, hypocritical, and compromising, the worst thing is that it is a reproach to God and the world. Pls look at these posts: http://heulu.wordpress.com/2012/11/09/america-and-the-church-today-shofar-ebook-chapter-8-america-has-forsaken-god-and-fallen-from-grace/ and Chapter 9 ‘How God Feels About Us’. The chapters are short. Drgold is not the author; our gravatars and profiles have gotten ‘crossed’ recently and are in the process of being straightened out! God bless you!

Thanks for the link. You were spot on! It always amazes me that those in the church can’t see the forest for the trees, all the signs are here. And the biggest share of the churches don’t want to know, they just want to party on. And partake in the blessings. Many will be surprised and taken unaware. God bless you.
