Come To Jesus!

Did Adrian Rogers hold to claims of being God? When he said "come to Jesus" to an auditorium full of people did he think he was God himself? Could he draw men to Christ? If salvation is according to the good pleasure of the Father wasn't Dr Rogers doing the Father's work by calling them to Christ? Was salvation according to the will of Adrian Rogers?

Did Adrian Rogers claim to be God? When he said "come to Jesus" did he believe that he had a magical key that would produce the new birth in the hearts of sinners? He said when you come forward someone would show you some scriptures and pray with you. Was there a magical incantation that if the sinner would yield to he would be saved. All the sinner had to do was submit to that secret prayer. When he uttered this prayer he would be mystically saved!

Dr Rogers undoubtedly believed that Jesus was divinely God, fully God. He had to be to fully purchase our salvation. But...did he know the Father and Spirit were equally God? Were they weak in certain areas and needed his help? Could the Father work according to his own good pleasure and was the Spirit capable of doing his part without the help of man?

Charline: you are such a sissy bitch. When are you going to come see me again?

That is really a sick attack on Dr. Rogers. I knew him well and he was a man of integrity who was greatly used by the Lord. I would be very careful about the ground you are treading upon.

It would help me if you were specific. I believe that you and I agree that he was a good man but this is not about good men but wrong message, false gospel. Perhaps he was not careful about the ground he was treading and perhaps you should be careful of the ground you are standing on.

We all have to be careful with fear and trembling.

I hardly think Adrian Rogers preached a false gospel. I am quite sure about the ground I am standing on but taking cheap shots at someone who is dead and can't defend themselves is pretty weak.

Keep following and reading my views unless you have already made your mind up that I am weak.
