Did anyone else get an unsettling feeling in their stomachs reading this June 14 tweet from Rick Warren?
I’m really curious to know what all of you think about this, so I hope you’ll comment on my blog or tweet me your thoughts. I see Ken Silva has already weighed in at Apprising.
My gut response is that the cross and the resurrection is the entire point of the Bible! Everything before it looks forward to it and after looks back right? Sure there may be verses that are not as explicit as others, but seriously, are there actually teachers out there trying to fit in the cross in verses where it doesn’t belong? I’d love Warren to provide some examples because I have yet to see people adding the cross in. More often the problem is they leave it out.
Okay, I’ve spoken my peace. Somebody else jump in and let me know what you think.

Upon further reflection I think my post is too soft on Warren. With this tweet he once again revealed his distaste for preaching the Gospel and that is a shame for any Christian and simply disgraceful for a Pastor.
