If you are buying into a “Emergent” or “Emerging Church” you are going to be shifting toward the apostasy of pantheistic monism and universalism. Everyone in the Church needs to know about this rapidly growing movement because this is the apostasy that we were told would come in the last days.

\nAre You a \u201cShifter\u201d? Does the Historic Gospel Message Need to be Repackaged? – CWN<\/a><\/p>\n

Are you a \u201cSHIFTER\u201d? Do you follow Oprah Winfrey in her swooning free-fall into \u201cplanetary consciousness\u201d? Do you \u201cfeel\u201d the Christian message and belief system must be \u201crepackaged\u201d in order to be \u201crelevant\u201d, especially to the youth?<\/p>\n

If you have answered \u201cYes\u201d to any of the above, then you may be a candidate for the pantheistic and neo-pagan \u201cEmerging Church\u201d being promoted by authors like Tony Campolo, Jim Wallis and Brian McLaren \u2013 all of them extreme political liberals.<\/p>\n

And since this group has redefined Jesus as a social activist, you may be on your way to HELL, which incidentally is a subject this \u201cchurch\u201d believes needs to be rethought and, probably eliminated from discussion.<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Now a similar assault on historic orthodox Christianity is underway that\u2019s gaining momentum. Some Christians believe a paradigm shift is taking place in the Church and as a consequence \u2018everything must change.\u2019\u2026Professor Peter Jones of Westminster Seminary warned listeners that the Christian theistic West has been turning back to pagan, pantheistic monism. Many in contemporary western culture now hold to a pantheistic belief in the unity of nature and God, of body and spirit \u2014 all is One\u2026 The movement is largely eclectic with inspiration drawn from all the major world religions, which include Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Shamanism, Wicca, the metaphysical New Thought movement, and Neo-Paganism, to name a few. The goal of NSM is a shift in \u2018planetary consciousness.\u2019 Their focus is not only on the West but also on the entire planet!\u2026We are in the middle of the biggest social transformation in history, THE SHIFT.\u2019\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
