RICK WARREN ON FLAVORING MAN-PLEASING SERMONS

Apprising Ministries on Rick Warren's Twitter message about using humor and personal illustrations to "reach" people:

"...Sadly, it seems to me that much of the church visible has largely ignored the proper proclamation of God’s Word in favor of these man-centered methods Rick Warren shares above in his ode to self post.

As we assess the shape of the Christian faith today, rather than bringing in people-pleasing pragmatists like Rick Warren to share his myths about the Mind of God, I offer that instead we’d be much better off if we’d get back to doing this:

I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.
(1 Timothy 4:1-2)
