Thank you everyone with your comments... I was pulling my hair out reading this article. This man is truly lost. Matthew 7:20. Mr. Carter, examine yourself, sir.
Well, it looks like Christians are fast becoming the bad guys. Shame on us for believing that Jesus is the only way to God! I would like to ask one question to those who believe you can get to God any way you please - If He sent Jesus to die on a cross for the sins of the world, WHY would there be one way for you and one way for me. It really minimizes what our Lord did for us.
Our mission as Christians is to teach and preach the light of God's Word. "You will know the truth and the truth will set you free." We are to reach out to a lost and dying world. The Holy Spirit will reveal the truth to people's hearts. I believe in speaking the truth in love.

All of them are really nice and well worth the cost. One t-shirt and one sweatshirt did come with the printing a little skewed on the front and cafe press replaced them immediately for free. Also, Ray in Northern Ireland, though it may seem a bit overpriced, the bumper sticker is easily worth $5.00. It's of MUCH better quality than others I've seen. I know that sounds silly but it's true! It's made of a very flexible, sturdy plastic (rather than paper) that will not fade, tear, rip and it's totally unaffected by the weather. When I wash my truck it comes clean and looks brand new. Trust me-I promise you will not be disappointed.
Mr. Fox is a wolf in "sheeps" clothing! No doubt there will be those people who hanker after a religion of human achievement that embraces anybody's version of spirituality while going on blindly to be led into a ditch that doesn't lead to Heaven.
It is a shame that any Bible-believing Christian would listen to Benny Hinn! His M.O. can be found in 2 Peter. As for The World Council of Churches being evangelicals, they jettisoned the real gospel nearly a century ago!
Great Sermon! What a wonderful message. I am so thankful for Brother Mahan and his stand for the truth. This message really blessed my heart. I praise the Lord for raising up this great preacher to preach His word without fear. God bless you Brother Mahan.
When we dead in our trespasses and sin Christ died for us. Jesus opens the heart to be made aware of their need for Him. Not all choose Him. He is a merciful God to die for "whosoever will". We are not puppets. And all the glory goes to Him for making it possible for us. God is not cruel in creating people to destin them to hell.
Jesus prayed in John 17 that the disciples, then and now, would be one even as He and the Father were. Jesus also said where 2 or more are gathered there am I in the midst of them. We, as Christians everywhere are united by one Spirit. The Church is not a particular building.
In Hosea 14:4 God says "I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely, for my anger has turned away from him." I believe that just as God was and is merciful to Israel He will be to the Christian who backslides. To clarify a little - God will draw that person back to Him.
