Cultural "Christianity" and the Emergent Church (FS) [4of4]

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.

Indeed, thanks for posting.

Without a belief in the God of the Bible, I see no possibility of someone having morals and ethics.

Witness:a man whom kills ANIMALS is labeled as a potential threat to PEOPLE in the future.

Witness: a man whom performs ABORTIONS is doing a social service.

If people can't see that "making up what you feel or think is right is dangerous, better go back and study.

Hitler had nutty beliefs too. As a type of the

AntiChrist, 2.0.Thought I'd mention him why you ask?

I disagree, Stereolabdream...It is utterly relevant; and further we see it happening all around us. I am now having conversations with my fellow christians arguing the veracity of Scripture and the truthfulness of God and those He used to set down those things for "those who believe". Why? Because they have bought into the relativistic lie that the Bible is "good, so far as it goes" , i.e., so long as it doesn't directly contradict the accepted RELATIVE standards of our current society.

[Revinius]

If that God holds us accountable for the decisions we make in this life then we should naturally tremble when we see the condition of much of the church in the western world.

[Stereolabdream]

Sorry Schaeffer, and those who still adhere to his philosophy-for it is that, not theology-but the saltiest of the salt comes from those who are moral and ethical WITHOUT the belief in a paternalistic God.

This question seems frivolous but is not intended as such, but, if you have an utter faith and belief in a "Christian" view of a universal deity, why would you worry about such issues?-they would be irrelevencies-utter irrelevencies-for those who are utterly sure of a universal "good" God...
