Hireling Rick Warren To Step Down As Pastor Of Saddleback Church. Looking For Successor
Warren recently made his decision, and has enlisted a couple to takeover: Andy and Stacie Wood from Echo Church in San Jose, California. Andy was the lead pastor there and his wife Stacie was a teaching pastor. Now they will share the same roles.
This afternoon, at our all-staff meeting held at the Lake Forest campus, I was finally able to publicly announce that we have found God’s couple to lead our congregation, and that they have agreed to come!
Kay and I believe so much in this couple. We love them so much, and we are confident that God has prepared and chosen them to take up the baton and run the next leg of the Saddleback marathon.
Warren stated
Christianity Today wrote, ‘In May 2021, Saddleback made headlines after ordaining three female staffers as pastors—a controversial step for Southern Baptists. The SBC’s statement of faith limits the office of pastor “to men as qualified by Scripture.” But Southern Baptists disagree over whether that applies only to the church’s senior pastor or whether it bars any women from having the title of pastor. They also disagree over whether women can preach in a Sunday service.’
‘At the SBC’s annual meeting, Saddleback was reported to the Credentials Committee, which is charged with deciding whether or not a church is in “friendly cooperation” with the denomination. Though some churches have left the SBC after naming women as pastor, the denomination has never officially removed any church for having a female pastor,’ Christianity Today also wrote.
As soon as the news broke, The Dissenter posted a pair of clips of Andy Wood at Echo Church insinuating that sodomy (the Biblical term for “LGBTBQIA+) is actually okay, watering down its severity, and saying that only acting on it is bad.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
[18] (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: [19] Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) Philippians 3:18-19
Trading one effeminate papist puppet for another… The people who listen to these people WANT to be lied to and given affirmation for their abominations. I am not going to rant and rave about this: this is the status quo for the churchianity industrial complex.
A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.
Proverbs 17:4
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Saddleback church cult building is now gonna be going from already bad and heretical to even worse!
Hirelings make it terrible and a church building is against scripture as well as man’s transitions (parents and grandparents or spouse included) but then you get a female pastor and the Doo Doo hits the fan!
I knew of a female pastor named Gloria Lewis who had her little cult center in a plaza, it was called “Joy Deliverance.” (What an odd name for a cult building) she died of kidney failure in 2009 and now her cult building center is an accountant’s office.
Well if it’s not the desire that is the sin, but the acting on it… what on earth do you do with lust then?
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: but I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Matthew 5:27-28 KJV
When you get right down to it, these hirelings Don’t teach that ANYBODY is going to hell.
May God destroy them.
Amen Anthony!
One Hireling that we MUST pray God destroys are the Swaggarts! I HATE THEM and God HATES THEM TOO!
We need to pray long and hard that those swaggart devils and their cult in Baton Rouge Louisiana are stomped out like bugs!
And also God destroy the other hirelings too!
God’s judgment on this nation is because of this antichrist fake garbage being promoted so blasphemously in the name of the Lord, and all the Romans 1:32 allies who hate the truth themselves & their own selves too much to risk offense warning the lost. Some of those abused ‘initiated’ kids become adults are more likely to get saved than such as these self-righteous social justice, builders who’ve rejected the chief cornerstone, CFR Romish ally Rick Warren, his wife & these pathetic & evil ‘woke’ pair of thirty-somethings.

That’s what this means, not that their unrepentant behavior is accepted. Mt 21:31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
Mt 21:32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

1Co 6:9 ¶ Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
1Co 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
1Co 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
1Co 6:12 ¶ All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
1Co 6:13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
1Co 6:14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
1Co 6:15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
1Co 6:16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
1Co 6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
1Co 6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
1Co 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
1Co 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

And Steven Anderson is just the dialectic opposite puppeted liar to bring reproach upon the Lord, his word and his way….and trouble to his slandered people.
I didn’t know about the gay affirming part when I saw this. Guess I should have known, so par for the course in these wicked times we live in. The Lord has ripped the top off & is manifesting the wicked & shaking his people awake….ready to chastize and refine and prepare us by the word & Spirit to his service wherever we are in life or locale.
Preach the Word
2Ti 4:1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
2Co 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
2Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
2Co 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
