5 If he who comes preaches ANOTHER JESUS whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it! 5 For I consider that I am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles. 6 Even though I am untrained in speech, yet I am not in knowledge. But we have been thoroughly manifested among you in all things.
–2 Corinthians 11:4-6 (NKJV)–
The cowardly, UNBELIEVING, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone.
–Revelation 21:8 (NKJV)–

SCOT MCKNIGHT’S “DECONSTRUCTION” IDEA IS JUST LIBERALISM
He says that people who see problems with clergy sexual abuse in Bible believing churches need to do the following things to stay strong Christians:
1. Stop equating being a Bible believer with being a Republican.
2. Tolerate gays in their homosexual lifestyle.
3. Christians really need to be involved with economic inequality issues.
4. Reject the Biblical doctrine of Hell. Become a universalist.
5. Reject the authority, inspiration, and inerrancy of Scripture.
6. Reject complementarian gender roles.
7. Let Christian youth watch Harry Potter movies. If you do, then you’ll be cool.
8. Reject original sin; and instead view all non-Christians as basically good people.
9. Reject young earth creation; and accept theistic evolution as the truth.
10. Listen to backsliders and be friends with them, because that’s what statistics say.
11. Worship the liberal, progressive “Jesus” instead of the Jesus of the Bible.
12. Completely reject lordship salvation. Embrace universalism and easy believism.
Rome!
Because you have destroyed the truth of God,
let God destroy you in these flames!
–Martin Luther–

Scot McKnight, “What Are They Deconstructing?” (Sept. 30, 2024). Scot is a pastor in the Anglican Church In North America (ACNA). I went to one once. I stopped because the elder I spoke with used the f-word openly in front of my kids. I didn’t bother going a second time.
