On Ecumenism

"And in neighborhoods people who are Catholic and Presbyterian and Lutheran are praying together. They go to Bible studies together. And an amalgam of all kinds of religious ideas has taken hold of the grass roots. Whereas denominational leaders are increasingly saying, "Well, we've got to stand for our distinctives." ... Well, those denominational leaders are going down the wrong path! "—Leith Anderson Interview

In a June 2003 sermon, Leith Anderson quotes Brennan Manning from his book, Ruthless Trust. Endorsers of this book include Philip Yancey, Bill Hybels and Dallas Willard In this book Manning quotes: Henri Nouwen, Thich Nhat Hanh , William Shannon (Silence on Fire), Frederick Buechner, Thomas Merton,Sue Monk Kidd, and yet Leith Anderson quotes this book in a favorable manner to his congregation when in fact he should be warning them.

As leaders in the "evangelical" movement head towards complete compromise and denial of the Christian faith and redefine the word "evangelical," those who are born-again and cling to the gospel message of Jesus Christ will have to find another name to call themselves. We are no longer evangelicals.
