Babtist gay activist Andy Stanley and WELS Pastor Ski, of The CORE. Ski and Tim Glende routinely copy sermons, graphics, promos from Enthusiasts, because they too are Enthusiasts. |

Andy Stanley recently appeared on Joyce Meyer's program and stated the following,
"We can be who (sic) God made us to be. We don't have to shrink back from that. And that the roles in marriage, perhaps as they're traditionally portrayed, may not be an accurate snapshot of how God wants our giftedness to work in marriage."
It would be simple enough for a pastor to affirm that married couples may - in Christian liberty - decide which household duties best fit each other. However, Stanley places himself above Scripture, deciding which words don't mean what they mean.
"Yea, hath God said?"

GJ - When slackers like Tim Glende, Ski, Jeff Gunn, and Rick Johnson slavishly copy the Emergent Church--with the blessing of their supervisors--they are just admitting their lack of faith in God's Word.
Anyone can read the statement above and realize Andy Stanley is so far up the National Council of Churches staircase that he can see the SynCon mission boards.
The gutlessness of the SynCon pastors has made my head spin, ever since 1987. One can see them shrinking every time a doctrinal topic comes up.
Do not be surprised that SynCon hero Herman Otten is now selling a bigoted anti-Luther book. Years ago he began selling Valleskey's Church Growth Halleluia Chorus...and UOJ primer.
Valleskey, as an anti-Luther bigot, was more dangerous than Otten's favorite Catholic priest, O'Hare.
Now things have regressed to the point where WELS can entertain the notion of adopting and promoting the New NIV.
Luther said that the Roman Empire tolerated every god except the One True God - Jesus. WELS discusses every possible translation except the best one, from Luther's own student - the King James Version.
The more the sacraments are watered down, as they are in the old and new NIV, the less people trust in the Word of God.
That is what the SynCon leaders want, so people trust in man's wisdom rather than God's. After all, man's wisdom can change on a moment's notice. God's wisdom does not.
