    I read some comments by Don and his wife Wendy and it seems they have embraced Universalism. The impression I get is his wife Wendy is the dominant one and he has followed.

    I noticed Wendy was very hostile to those who didn't agree with her. She used ugly words and had an ugly attitude. Berating folks doesn't manifest the spirit of Christ.

This is readily seen as more and more churches are becoming "inclusive." Sometimes I think the church needs evangelism more than the world needs it.
    We are witnessing "the great falling away". We need to fire the church back up!

    Seems to be news to most of us:

    -How does one believe in the Gospel without believing that Scripture is 100 percent truth? That it is our sufficient authority, and God's own inerrant, infallible, breathed-out Word? How do you easily convince thousands of fans that those Christians who believe such things are somehow idol worshipers? Talk about a heart-breaker. An extremely influential Christian celebrity has not only departed from Christian doctrine, he is arrogantly throwing other Christians under the bus for believing (gasp) that the Bible is true.

    Two-time Dove Award winner Don 30 Francisco is a singer/songwriter best known for songs like He's Alive, Adam, Adam Where are You" and I'll Never Let Go of Your Hand. Surprisingly, Francisco is now scolding Christians who believe that the Bible is without error. In fact if you believe in the infallibility of Scripture, you are "dead," and need to stop drinking the Kool-Aid, Don says. He posted this message on his Facebook page:

    I love the Scriptures. Anyone who's heard my songs knows that, and I shouldn't even have to say it. God speaks to me through them constantly. The Bible is the most wonderful book in the world. Those who have given their lives to preserve it and translate it didn't die in vain, for without them we wouldn't know that God came to Earth and lived as one of us, died on the Cross to show us His love and forgiveness, and rose from the dead to take away all our fears. And those are just the main points....

    My problems begin with those who would try to make this book into a god. There is only one Foundation, Jesus Christ, and anyone who attempts to build on another one will be using an unstable and deadly cornerstone. I understand those of you who have 'drunk the Kool-Aid' (believed in the inerrancy/infallibility thing because you've been taught to believe it– I used to be one of you), but it's time to arise from among the dead and believe the Gospel. For those of you who intentionally use this doctrine to control others, may God have mercy on your soul! May you soon travel the Damascus Road as Paul did...

    I was reading the comments there and didn't catch this originally, our member Gregg/Debtfree who alerted us to this had a comment there from last July:

    Barry...Hate to break it to you...but it's DEAD on...I know...I was debating Don's wife Wendy on Facebook...that is until she blocked me and deleted what I wrote because she could NOT refute what I said...it's easier to ignore the truth then contend for it you know...

    I Facebook Messaged Don cuz I could NOT believe that he would agree with her tree hugging twisted theology...but guess what....HE DOES!

    They both grieve my spirit that someone who was such a blessing to so many as lowered himself to the level of a tree huggar, New Age Guru...Very sad but also VERY true too.
