Truth about 'The Emerging Church & Inclusive Gospel’

The Word of God tells us to, “sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.” 1 Peter 3: 15

Nevertheless, the trend of the ‘Inclusive Gospel’ of ‘Emerging Church’ is “Christians can not truly evangelize unless they are prepared to be The evangelized in the process. In sharing the good news, people are enriched by the spiritual insights, honest questions and depth of devotion demonstrated by those of other faiths. Including others involves listening to them, learning from them. Much of what exists in other faiths may not necessarily be hostile to the kingdom. Christians can learn a lot from other walks of life.”

My dear brothers and sisters do not fall into the trap of the ‘Inclusive Gospel’. The children of Israel were warned by the Old Testament prophets about joining hands with pagans, however, they ignored God’s warning. As Jeremiah proclaimed:
“And the LORD said unto me, a conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers. Therefore thus saith the LORD, behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.” Jeremiah 11: 9-11

In spite of such clear warnings from Scripture, the very thing that happened to the children of Israel is what is being repeated today, only this time in the name of Christianity.

It is apparent what is happening. Instead of proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ that saves sinners from hell, the gospel has been redefined and totally nullified. The narrow pathway that Jesus proclaimed leads to heaven through faith in Him alone now has been broadened to permit open access for the sake of establishing the “kingdom’.

The new evangelization formula promoted by the emerging church promises to provide a bridge to unite all religious beliefs in the name of Christ, by circumventing the gospel of Jesus Christ, is anti-Christ.

The early church was called “The Way” because the members of the church were following Jesus, who said He was “The Way.” Jesus also said the “Way” is a “narrow way” and the “only way” to get into heaven. The Emerging Church way or emergent conversation or whatever name is used to describe this so-called New Reformation, is a wide way that many are traveling and heading in the wrong direction.

Beloved children of God, be like the Bereans, and check out what is being proclaimed as ‘Christian’ with reference to the Scriptures for the sake of your immortal soul. Jesus alone is the lover of your soul.
