ROB BELL'S NEW HERETICAL BOOK: "THE ZIMZUM OF LOVE: A NEW WAY OF UNDERSTANDING MARRIAGE"

ROB BELL: 
“If Christianity were outlawed 

and a mob amassed to burn 

Christian books, The Zimzum of Love 

would not be at risk.” 


ROB BELL CONTINUES HIS JOURNEY INTO HERESY 
(Friday Church News Notes, December 19, 2014, www.wayoflife.orgfbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - http://www.wayoflife.org/friday_church_news/15_51.php
Rob Bell, emerging church superstar, appears to move farther from the truth with each passing year. Perhaps it is the fruit of his contemplative prayer practices whereby he is in touch with demons masquerading as angels of light. I first learned of Bell in about 2007 while doing research into the emerging church and read his book Velvet Elvis. In 2009, I heard him speak at the National Pastor’s Conference in San Diego, where he joined hands with fellow speaker Paul Young, author of The Shack. In 2011, Bell published Love Wins, in which he said that hell is in this life and most men will eventually be saved. Bell called the doctrine of eternal hell “misguided and toxic,” a “cheap view of God,” and “lethal.” He says that a God that would send sinners to eternal hell is “terrifying and traumatizing and unbearable” (Love Wins, Kindle location 1273-1287, 2098-2113). Bell founded the hipster Mars Hill Bible Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan, but these days he doesn’t attend church. He would rather surf the waves near his home in California (“Whatever Happened to Rob Bell,” Charisma News, Dec. 3, 2014). He has teamed up with New Ager Oprah Winfrey, touring the country with her Life You Want Weekend. The Rob Bell Showpremieres December 21 on Oprah’s network. In his new book, The Zimzum of Love: A New Way of Understanding Marriage, Bell says he would conduct a same-sex wedding ceremony, arguing, “This is a justice issue. We believe people should not be denied the right to have someone to journey with.” One review of The Zimzum of Love says, “If Christianity were outlawed and a mob amassed to burn Christian books, The Zimzum of Love would not be at risk.”

ROB BELL: WE’RE MOMENTS AWAY FROM THE CHURCH EMBRACING GAY MARRIAGE

EXCERPT:
“We’re moments away,” Rob Bell said. “I think culture is already there and the church will continue to be even more irrelevant when it quotes letters from 2,000 years ago as their best defense, when you have in front of you flesh-and-blood people who are your brothers and sisters and aunts and uncles and co-workers and neighbors and they love each other and just want to go through life with someone.”
Said Kristen Bell: “There are churches who are moving forward and there are churches who are almost regressing and making it more of a battle.”   (SOURCE)
Bell recently started a broadcast group called “The Liturgists,” and promotes “mother God” and a deep mystical New Age mediation called  “apophatic prayer.” Remember that Bell is part of the Emergent Church:

The Emergent Church movement is a progressive Christian movement that attempts to reduce or eliminate Christian doctrine in favor of experience and feelings. Most do not believe man can know what is absolute truth, and believe God must be experienced outside of traditional biblical doctrines.
