a strong delusion

This is an excellent film.

"They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error." 1John 4:5-6

There is no explanation, at least as far as can be surmised this side of heaven, for a certain blindness that appears to surround leaders of otherwise well regarded, substantially orthodox ministries.  

Rather than voice concern regarding Rick Warren's (and a growing number of other Evangelical leaders) problematic theology and multi-tentacled ministries, they give approval and succeed in confusing the sheep.  

But soley for God's grace go any one of us.  I have prayed for Rick Warren and other leaders..the culpability as a preacher of God's Word and shepherd of the sheep is ginormous...we all ought pray.
