Cultural "Christianity" and the Emergent Church (FS) [3of4]

Francis Schaeffer died in 1984. Even before then, though, he could see things creeping into the church that had no business being Francis Schaeffer died in 1984. Even before then, though, he could see things creeping into the church that had no business being there. His suggestion? He suggests to make sure there is a line drawn in the sand; to make sure there is a differentiation between theose who hold to a full view of Scripture and those who do not and for those that do to not associate with those that don't without preaching repentance from their unbelief. I agree with the late Dr. Schaeffer.

I love francis schaeffer.

I see stereolabdream commented a year ago, and so has no doubt forgotten his words. I wonder though if he truly believes his argument. He says we must develop our own morality, and yet he calls Shaeffers hateful. Already hes abandoned his claim to relativism, and has appealed instead to objectivity. I wonder as well, who shall decide his attempt at morality is faulty? Will he appeal to objectivity again when another calls his view faulty?

[Stereolabdream]

I'm afraid Schaeffer is correct in his description of the develoment of the existential view of the innerancy of the bible...but thank goodness for that! Morality can, and must develop, but not on the basis of Schaeffer's paternalistic deity- created as the product of a time and place-expressing some laudible ethical paradigms, but also many that are hateful. Our dignity and intelligence require us to create our own morality-however flawed the attempts may be.
