The Emergent Church Teaches One World Religion!
2008-10-02 17:36:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. Brian McLaren, recognized as the major leader of the Emergent Church, is not too sure what he believes about the essential truths of Scripture (except to doubt many of them). He is not too sure what he is but we know what he is not–sane, sensible, or scriptural. Note the confusion of ...

Emergent Church: Wacko Environmentalism Not Evangelism!
2008-10-01 05:33:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. There can be no argument the Emergent Church leaders emphasize the environment over eternity. Brian McLaren wrote that a Christian?s goal is not simply to reach people for Christ but to save the planet from destruction (A New Kind of Christian, p. 83). No, that is not our goal. While we are ...

Top Agenda of the Emergent Church: Social Gospel!
2008-09-28 17:29:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. Emergent Church leaders are into the social gospel of the early 1920s, a failure and departure from the Word now as then. One of the EC leaders admitted that the EC is a protest movement, so what do they protest? Many EC leaders would consider Bible-believers as Neanderthals because of our positions ...

Pagan Practices Taught by Emergent Church!
2008-09-27 17:25:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. God warns us in Jer. 10:2, ?Learn not the way of the heathen,? but heathenism is exactly what EC leaders are teaching. The Bible gives no support for chanting, centering prayer, yoga, beads, candles, incense, labyrinths, breathe prayers, etc. The Roman Catholic Church brought all those from paganism and baptized them into ...

Emergent Church Leaders are Modern Gnostics!
2008-09-20 17:09:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. Emergent Church leaders denigrate sin, the savior, and salvation via the cross of Christ. Read with horror the following Emergent leader: ?If the cross is a personal act of violence perpetrated by God towards humankind but borne by his Son, then it makes a mockery of Jesus’ own teaching to love your ...

Emergent Churches Are Kingdom Builders!
2008-09-18 23:04:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. Brian McLaren refers to the kingdom incessantly in his book and someone needs to remind him what Jesus said in John 18:36: ?My kingdom is not of this world.? Brian spends 237 pages to convince us that we can bring the kingdom NOW if we become wimpy, worldly, wacko ?emergent? Christians. Frankly, ...

The Emergent Church Runs Away from the Bible!
2008-09-15 16:57:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. Emergent Church leaders ask the same question Satan asked in the Garden, ?Hath God said?? They have no confidence in the Word so they have no compass, chart, or anchor. In my opinion, they are not even on the Boat! An EC follower will say to another, ?I really think that this is ...

Scriptural Truth is Unimportant to Emergent Churches!

What is Emerging from the Emergent Church?
2008-09-11 16:49:00 -By Don Boys, Ph.D. The Emergent Church heavily promotes many pagan and heretical practices although its adherents profess to be ?evangelical.? They may possess a desire to move the world but they are moving it in the wrong direction. Too many of them are willing to tinker with orthodox theology, thereby satisfying unbelievers, to accomplish that ...

The Arrogance of the Emergent Church's "Mere Christianity" Fantasy
2008-05-14 17:16:00 This is partially in response to Bryan Cross' recent post evaluating the recent "Evangelical Manifesto". He has more nice things to say about it than I would I think. I look at a rotten apple and I don't notice the parts of the apple that are still edible. To me, it's just that: a rotten apple! I throw the whole thing away.One of my co-workers remarked "My church doesn't call ourself Catholic or Protestant or Baptist or anything... We're just Christian". Yea. You're just full of it. That's what you are.I used to think the same thing of myself. I was just "Christian". In reality looking back, I can see how wrapped up in self-pride that statement is. It is _I_ who embody and personify true Christianity.Christ isn't a member of Israel or one of Israel's sects: He's not a Pharisee or Sadducee etc... He is TRUE Israel. That's what we think of ourselves when we start talking like that. "I'm above being categorized into any certain systematic doctrine of Christianit...

The Rise of Extreme Tolerance
2008-04-07 18:01:00 The world may value compromise and tolerance as supreme virtues, but they have a devastating effect on preaching. As more and more evangelical pulpits reflect the surrounding culture, it’s time for Christians to proclaim a distinctively biblical worldview. John MacArthur elaborates in this article first published at Grace To You: Many evangelicals (once known for a very ...

Emergent Church Defined
2007-10-27 14:48:00 The Emergent Church is the new wineskin holding the 21st century new wine (church).Mark 2:22 No one pours new wine into old wineskins. The wine would swell and burst the old skins. Then the wine would be lost, and the skins would be ruined. New wine must be put into new wineskins.George Barna ( www.barna.org ) is the most well known respected Christian researcher who conducts surveys on the state of Christianity and the church. Recent surveys conducted over the last 2 to 3 years have unveiled a mass exodus of Christians leaving their local churches. WHY? The answer simply put is they are desiring something real, something tangible, a relationship with God and others that is life changing. The institutional church has grown stale and is failing to meet the needs of God's people.I searched the NIV Bible and noticed that God's word speaks of new wine, new wineskins, new patch, new garment, new oil, new songs, new mercies, new creations, new minds, new moons, new covenant, new life, n...

Emerging, Not Emergent, Thank You
2007-08-27 17:28:00 "I was part of what is now known as the Emerging Church Movement in its early days?. I had to distance myself, however, from one of many streams in the emerging church because of theological differences. Since the late 1990s, this stream has become known as Emergent. The emergent church is part of the Emerging Church Movement but does not embrace the dominant ideology of the movement. Rather, the emergent church is the latest version of liberalism. The only difference is that the old liberalism accommodated modernity and the new liberalism accommodates postmodernity" (p. 21). Excerpt from Mark Driscoll's Confessions of a Reformission Rev.

Emergent Christians finding a new path
2007-08-13 12:26:00 The movement has taken on a variety of labels ? it's called emergent, emerging, postmodern and missional, among other things ? although these Christians resist being defined. Their numbers are difficult to estimate because they don't focus on attendance, and their ideas about what church should be cover a wide spectrum.
News & Current Events :: A Pastoral Perspective on the Emergent Church
2007-08-10 03:25:00 Author: Eric Subject: A Pastoral Perspective on the Emergent ChurchPosted: Thu Aug 09, 2007 9:25 pm (GMT -4) A Pastoral Perspective on the Emergent Church Mark Driscoll In the mid-1990s I was a young church planter trying to establish a church in the city of Seattle when I got a call to speak at my first conference. It was hosted by Leadership Network and focused on the subject of Generation X. I spoke on the transition from the modern to the postmodern world and some of the implications this cultural shift was having on the Church. Other participants spoke on the various ways that emerging generations were changing and how the Church might faithfully respond. That conference shifted in focus from reaching a generation to larger issues related to being the Church in an emerging postmodern culture. The general consensus among us was that a transition within the Church was taking place. Local churches were moving either from a Church 1.0 to a Church 2.0 model or from a Church...

Akron/Canton Emergent Cohort meeting - July '07
2007-07-09 21:56:00 This Friday (7/13) at 8:00 p.m. the Akron/Canton Emergent Cohort will be meeting. Things are going to be a little different this month; here are the details…Topic: There will be no specific topic this month, so be prepared to discuss anything that you want to! I will have a list of things for us to talk about in case no one else has anything, so don’t worry if you have nothing currently on your mind. :-) There will be a few procedural decisions/announcements to make as well.Location: We will meet at a new location this month… the Arabica Coffee House near Belden Village (4339 Dressler Rd NW Canton, OH 44718 - see map). There should be live music, which could make the experience more enjoyable or hinder conversation (I’m not sure which, so we’ll just try it once and see.) There is an outdoor patio so we can always meet out there if we want/need to, assuming there is room. Future meeting location suggestions are always welcome.

News & Current Events :: Author and Pastor Sounds Warning about 'Emergent C
2007-06-19 15:32:00 Author: Eric Subject: Author and Pastor Sounds Warning about 'Emergent Church'Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2007 9:32 am (GMT -4) Author and Pastor Sounds Warning about 'Emergent Church' Allie Martin Pastor and author John MacArthur says evangelical churches must be on guard against post-modernism and the emerging church. His new book says many church-going Christians are caught in a crossfire of teaching and writing that promotes alternative Christian histories and a push to eliminate absolute truth. In his book The Truth War; Fighting for Certainty in an Age of Deception, Dr. John MacArthur sounds a warning about the growing influence of the emerging church movement. The battle for truth, he says, is raging not only in society, but throughout the church. "I think the emergent church, at its foundation, is unwilling to acknowledge propositional truth," MacArthur says. "And their spin is that the Bible is not that clear. "We know there is absolute, object...

Windows Vista en muy caro para países emergentes
2007-05-09 16:13:00 Consideran que el precio de Windows Vista es demasiado elevadoAllan Krans, de la consultora Technology Business Research afirma que el precio de Vista, sumado a sus altos requerimientos de hardware, lo vuelven casi inalcanzable para gran parte de la población de países del tercer mundoPara Krans, es por eso que la gente en países como China elige permanecer con sus actuales copias de Windows XP, descargan versiones pirata de Windows Vista o prueban alternativas libres como Linux. Microsoft ha agregado muchas protecciones contra piratería en Vista, pero esto no ha detenido a los cracks, que circulan libremente por la web.El problema de la piratería es tan grave que se rumorea que luego de las primeras dos semanas de ventas de Windows Vista en China se habían vendido apenas 244 copias legítimas. Desde luego, esto ha sido desmentido por Microsoft de manera vehemente, pero cierto o no queda claro que debido a los precios actuales y la necesidad de actualizar el hardware para correr el n...
Emergent Cohort meeting - May '07
2007-05-08 03:24:00 From the Akron/Canton Emergent Cohort blog:Well, it’s that time again. This Friday evening (5/11) the cohort will be meeting at 8:00 at Rico Latte in Stow (yes, Tim, I’ve reserved the room already :-). We’ll begin the discussion by asking the questions: to what extent is “Christianity†a metanarrative, and as such how does it (or doesn’t it) succumb to postmodern incredulity? I’ll also be happy to give a recap of the recent Theological Philosophical Conversation for anyone who’s interested. Then we’ll just see where the discussion goes! Hope to see you there!

On truth (after the recent Emergent Conversation)
2007-05-01 00:47:00 Scott Berkhimer has posted part one of his reflections from the Emergent Theological Philosophical Conversation, and it's well worth a read. I've finally recovered from my week of conferencing as well and I was about to write a similar post when I saw this one in my newsreader, so now I don't have to. Ah, the wonders of hyperlinking! So rather than giving a play-by-play of the event, which Scott has begun to do quite nicely, I'll simply talk about how I was most impacted by the conversations.One of the most memorable parts of the conversation was a question asked by Richard Kearney, which I'll paraphrase here. He asked, if God said to you that in his left hand he held The Truth, and in his right hand he held the search for truth, and he let you choose one or the other, which would you choose? Richard then said that it is the search for truth that is fitting for us because, as the famous line goes, we can't handle The Truth. This really resonated with me since I've been r...

We’ll be meeting at my home: 2625 Maplewood St. in Cuyahoga Falls. Directions can be found here. Our topic will be spiritual formation, and to kick start the conversation I would like to leave everyone with a quote from Reggie McNeal’s book, The Present Future: “Let’s return to that person or family who has just become a follower of Jesus and has joined a congregation or is considering becoming a part of church life. INSTEAD OF DUMPING A PACKET OF CHURCH CLUB MEMBER STUFF ON THEM, WHY NOT INTERVIEW THEM ABOUT WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO SEE HAPPEN IN THEIR LIVES IN TERMS OF THEIR SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT AND PERSONAL GROWTH? Maybe they’ve never thought in those terms. (Club members who have practiced churchianity for years would have more difficulty with this interview than spiritual seekers. Can’...

Akron/Canton Emergent Cohort - Feb '07 meeting recap
2007-02-16 13:01:00 One week ago the Akron/Canton Emergent Cohort had it's second conversation, and I think it was a good time for everyone. We met at Muggswigz in downtown Canton, which was pretty busy but still had enough room for us all. The next meeting will be Friday, March 9th @ 8:00 pm, and I believe it will be at Rico Latte in the Falls, with Tim leading. Now I'm going to attempt to summarize our last meeting as best I can.A couple weeks before the meeting I posted an essay with some questions related to how we can best talk to and/or work with those who see the world, and Christianity in particular, differently than we do. Do we try to gently convince others that there is a better way? Do we let them see things and do things their way and simply partner with them as much as possible? How can we appropriately respond during those times that we feel like screaming in anger and frustration at the bad impression of Christian faith being left on those who are not Christians? These questions and m...
