JUSTIN PETERS ON THE "DUTY OF DISCERNMENT"

Justin Peters, http://justinpeters.org/, known for his research and studies of the Word of Faith/Name It & Claim It/Health & Wealth Gospels, teaches on the need for, and duty of discernment for Christians. He shows that discernment is not an option for Christians. See: Acts 17:11. Please note that Justin Peters is a Southern Baptist who suffers from cerebral palsy and has difficulty walking and sitting.

and an overview of "A Call For Discernment":


PASTOR ALERT!-CHURCH IS FOR BELIEVERS, NOT UNBELIEVERS

John MacArthur has an article showing that many pastors have misplaced priorities and think that church is for the unregenerate unchurched. Pastors also have been told, such as by Andy Stanley, that they are no longer shepherds or ministers to believers but "vision casting" leaders instead. That is just not biblical.

ROB BELL THINKS THE CULTURE VIEWS GOD LIKE AN OUTDATED "OLDSMOBILE"

ROB BELL'S OLD OBSOLETE SILVER OLDSMOBILE DELTA 88 
LIKENED TO "THE OLD WAY OF PRESENTING GOD" TO A MUCH MORE SOPHISTICATED AND EDUCATED CULTURE:


Rob Bell has a new promo trailer on YouTube for his new book "What We Talk About When We Talk About God". The video compares his old Oldsmobile to God. It is filled with unbiblical heresies and blasphemies when he compares God to a "collector's item", a "relic of the past", and the culture thinking of God a "bit like Oldsmobiles", implying that we need to change our "small tribal" view and presentation of God to conform to the culture's view of God who is seen as "outdated","obsolete", "mean' and "not that intelligent". He cites examples that "have to go" (like the obsolete Oldsmobile) as being like some church leaders who "refuse to let women be leaders" and who preach the evil of "homosexuality", and/or the "literal interpretation of the Bible". He claims that he meets people all the time who view traditional Christianity as "failing them and causing them harm":


2 Peter 2: 1-6
    But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly.
