I subjected myself to Rick warren's recent podcast on evangelism. There was actually a few good points made, however they were built on the sandy foundation of pragmatism. Have a listen to this truly sad soundbite.
I've heard this before but hearing it again I still had to pick my jaw off the floor! I can't believe that a preacher would be so reckless with people's eternal destiny.
Assuming those 2,000 "commitments" were all sincere and remained committed to their "decision"...I have a hard time hearing him say "only" when speaking of them. So "only" 2k got saved the second time when you spoke about Heaven. Well, gee. I guess that's a shame that "only" 2k got snatched from the pit of Hell, maybe for some of them at the last moment, when you spoke about Heaven. I guess you'll "only" get 1k next time if you preach on Hell. "Only"...you know, that guy just bugs me.

hmmm....that's really sad...
the thing that bugs me too, is when people put so much emphasis on the number of so called *registered* commitments at a meeting.....
numbers are NOTHING!!...
do they really know what it means to turn from sin/repent and believe in Jesus Christ???? Do they even know why they need a Saviour????
And how many of these so called commitments, go out the front yet gain, when a new preacher's in town, to 'get saved' all over again?
Preach the TRUE Gospel message and birth them right...
*gets off her soapbox* ;)

Wow Louisa! So, where can I tune in to YOUR radio show? =)
That is SCARY.
Quite breathtaking to hear it that explicitly. WOW.
Wow - Lots of comments. Maybe there's something to this pragmatism thing - If I put up more Rick Warren sound bites maybe I'll get more hits!
