*phew* Power trip much? After seeing this for the first time it made me want to laugh and throw up at the same time. Does he glorify God in this sermon? How many times does he use the word “I”? Why is he trying to sound like God? “I am furious with some men. And I believe that fury is God’s.” It is a very serious thing to say that you have a word from God. There is a difference between righteous anger and the anger of a fool. You are not Jesus, Mark Driscoll. Yeah shame on those men for not joining your “community groups” and shame on them for not “shutting up”. Shame on them for wanting to go get their kids after service. Yeah, shame on them Mark Driscoll. You have a right to be angry about the current treatment of women. But throwing a fit in the pulpit, spouting four letter words will not help.
This is sad.
And I’m not the only one who thinks this display of abuse of power is disheartening. And no, we are not “too dumb” to understand Mr. Driscoll’s “infinate wisdom”.
We know exactly what is going on.
“For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.”— 2nd Timothy 4:3
“Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons. These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead.” — 1st Timothy 4:1-2
“Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from spiriual powers of the world rather than from Christ”— Colossians 2:8
1st John 4:1 says “Dear friends, do not believe everyoe who claims to speak by the Spirit. You must test them to see if the spirit they have comes from God. For there are many false prophets in the world”
I have tested it in the light of Scripture and it does not add up no matter what way you slice it.
