SASKATOON, Canada – Two Mennonite ministers in Canada have officiated the denomination’s first same-sex “wedding,” holding the service publicly in a “church” building in Saskatchewan.
Anita Retzlaff and Patrick Preheim of Nutana Park Mennonite Church officiated the ceremony for Craig Friesen and Matt Weins on Dec. 31, which was held at Osler Mennonite, the childhood congregation of Friesen.
Gnosticism, Joseph Campbell's views, and the occult forces behind George Lucas' "Star Wars" films. Sadly, many professing Christians idolize and use these Luciferian films as entertainment.
As an outreach ministry of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and the TEDS faculty, we subscribe to the doctrinal standards of the Evangelical Free Church of America (the parent denomination of TEDS and the Henry Center). The Henry Center’s identity reflects that of the Trinity faculty; it includes Calvinists and Arminians, Lutherans and Anabaptists, egalitarians and complementarians, and much more. It includes North Americans, but it also gladly affirms and is indebted to the work of scholars and ministers from all around the world. We are all committed to God’s glorious gospel, and we are happy to partner with other evangelical ministries (including those with other doctrinal stances) in order to advance the kingdom.

From the beginning of his academic career Henry aspired to lead Protestant fundamentalism to a greater intellectual and social engagement with the larger American culture. As such, with Ockenga and Graham, he is one of the most significant leaders of evangelicalism of the post-World War II era. In fact, Henry’s book The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism (1947) is often seen as a kind of “neo-evangelical manifesto” marking the nascent movement’s break with separatist fundamentalists. Henry also demonstrated his leadership of the neo-evangelical movement through his presidency of the Evangelical Theological Society (1967-70) and the American Theological Society (1979-80), as well as his organizing role in the Berlin (1966) and Lausanne (1974) World Conferences on Evangelism.
Henry’s many books, the most famous of which is the six-volume God, Revelation, and Authority (1976-83), consistently reiterate the themes of biblical theism, objective revelation in propositional form, the authority and inerrancy of the Scriptures, and the rational apologetic defense of Christianity.
Paradoxically, Henry has been attacked throughout his career by separatist fundamentalists for urging a more united evangelical witness, while being criticized by liberal evangelicals for his insistence on biblical inerrancy. Despite this carping, the historical significance of the person Time magazine once called in 1977, “the leading theologian” of American evangelicalism is incontestable.

____________________________________________________________________ ALISTAIR BEGG'S AFFILIATION WITH THE C.S. LEWIS INSTITUTE: http://cslewisinstitute.org/search/node/alistair%20begg _____________________________________________________________
EXCERPT: "If only it were possible to capture and keep those moments of family fun and Christmas fellowship. The photos on my phone stir the memory and deepen the longings. C. S. Lewis wrestled with these notions and pointed out that, when we consider our deepest longings, they can never be satisfied in this lifetime."
EXCERPT: "In his book Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis explains that Jesus has not left open to us the option of sidestepping Him as just another great moral teacher."
(COMMENT: This is taken well out of context, since Lewis was a false convert to "Christianity", remained an occultist, Taoist, and heretic as evidenced by the vast majority of his works.)
EXCERPT: "It is this truth that C. S. Lewis emphasizes at the end of The Silver Chair when Jill suggests to Aslan that she must quench her thirst from another stream. The lion responds, "There is no other stream" (Acts 4:12)."
(COMMENT: This is Begg's support for his stand against salvation by works. The actual quote from the Bible reads: "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.") ___________________________________________________________________

The MIND of CS LEWIS vs TRUTH of GOD'S WORD:
Published on Dec 9, 2013
C.S. Lewis had a big imagination, and a high regard for the occult. Combined, these make for a dangerous blend of Theosophy, pagan myths, and an unbiblical worldview. This video compares his views to the Holy Bible. Sadly, they do not match up. 1John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
This is a very well documented expose on the false teachings of C.S. Lewis, given by Laurence Justice. C.S. Lewis is very much loved by many, but people seem to fail to recognize his universalism and ecumenical stance he took and the fact that he had a very shallow and heretical way in which he viewed the scriptures.
