Endorsements Keep Rolling In



Actual ad - At least they didn't say, "Start them on coke." That would be more relevant and relational.

Pertinent quotes for consideration by the CORE and other similar churches:

“One of the most popular current errors, and the one out of which springs most of the noisy, blustering religious activity being carried in evangelical circles these days, is the notion that as times change the church must change with them. Christians must adapt their methods by the demands of the people. If they want ten-minute sermons, give them ten-minute sermons. If they want truth in capsule form, give it to them. If they want pictures, give them plenty of pictures. If they like stories, tell them stories. If they prefer to absorb their religious instruction through drama, go along with them—give them what they want. ‘The message is the same, only the method changes,’ say the advocates of compromise.”

- A.W. Tozer


“The devil has seldom done a cleverer thing than hinting to the church that part of their mission is to provide entertainment for the people, with a view to winning them…providing amusement for the people is nowhere spoken of in the Scriptures as a function of the church…the need is for Biblical doctrine, so understood and felt that it sets men aflame.”

- CH Spurgeon

GJ - Tozer and Spurgeon are two old fuddie-duddies who had the Church and Chicaneries pegged long before Fuller Creek regenerated the rascals as pod-people of the New Age. Note how often the Pricey Executive Assistant shares her Buddhist/business management wisdom with everyone.
