With the slow but steady apostasy and acceptance of homosexuality in practically every denomination, it was no surprise to see the Roman Catholic pope signal his acceptance of homosexuality rather than issuing a call to repentance. Desmond Tutu, an archbishop in some sort of church or other, also announces to everybody that he wants to go to hell. Kevin Swanson points out the cross-denominational nature of the apostasy that has raged across the West for 600-800 years.

“ But wait a minute! ” Kevin and Dave, Although you are both in agreement that legalism can be counterproductive to the Christian, and I would tend to agree with several of the items that you had mentioned, e.g. how much water to use in baptism, (even baptism itself not being necessary for salvation could be included in your list) but I believe that pastors with large platforms such as yours need to study the King James vs. other versions issue IN DEPTH. I used the NIV for years and I would never say that someone is not saved if they use other versions but I can tell you that when I did a study on the differences, It was completely obvious that I was reading a version that had an agenda, that being to water down the message of Christ. And when I delved into the villainous characters behind the scenes of these new versions, I was convinced that they are not of God but of money and thus asked the question, why would any Christian, upon discovering the blatant ERRORS and apostasy that these versions cunningly insert, continue to read and study them? I for one will not and I am an advocate of exposing these PER versions for what they really are...COUNTERFEITS. This is not being legalistic nor unnecessarily dogmatic but this falls under the instruction to RIGHTLY DIVIDE the word of truth.

“ Great Sermon! ” "I was glad I read the Associated Press story first because, setting aside the headline and lede, it included the minor detail that Pope Francis did not depart from traditional church teaching on sin and homosexuality [is intrinsically disordered]."
