Anti-Christ and the false gospel of “free will”: As usual, he “takes responsibility”

excerpted from: BREITBART.COM - Ousted Evangelist Confesses to Followers

Less than 24 hours after he was fired from the pulpit of the evangelical megachurch he founded, the Rev. Ted Haggard confessed to his followers Sunday that he was guilty of sexual immorality.

In a letter that was read to the congregation of the New Life Church by another clergyman, Haggard apologized for his acts and requested forgiveness.

“I am so sorry for the circumstances that have caused shame and embarrassment for all of you,” he said, adding that he had confused the situation by giving inconsistent remarks to reporters denying the scandal.

“The fact is I am guilty of sexual immorality. And I take responsibility for the entire problem. I am a deceiver and a liar. There’s a part of my life that is so repulsive and dark that I have been warring against it for all of my adult life,” he said.

Haggard resigned last week as president of the National Association of Evangelicals, where he held sway in Washington and condemned homosexuality, after a man claimed to have had drug-fueled homosexual trysts with him. Haggard also placed himself on administrative leave from the New Life Church, which has 14,000 members, but its independent Overseer Board fired him on Saturday.

In his letter, Haggard said “the accusations made against me are not all true but enough of them are that I was appropriately removed from his church leadership position.”

He did not give details on which accusations were true.

The letter was read to the church by the Rev. Larry Stockstill, senior pastor of Bethany World Prayer Center in Baker, La., and a member of the board that fired Haggard.

Youngsters were sent out of the room before elders began speaking about the church crisis.

“Worshippers are always challenged by crisis. And when tragedy and crisis strikes it is at that moment that you truly decide if you are a worshipper of the most high god. And today as the worship pastor of this church I am very proud of you,” said the Rev. Ross Parsley, who has replaced Haggard.

Plastic smile is still there. The Free Will Lie is still there. Anti-Christ is still in him and still speaks out through him.

What will the “Board” “do” but hire another one just like him as anti-Christ through him has taught them all their favorite lie all of their lives?

He openly admits he is a liar and a deceiver and says that he has done so (because he also says he has free will..) on purpose. He said one thing and ‘did’ another. But according to those who who “forgive everything of everyone”, Satan can’t ’still’ be in him becuasae he openly admitted he was a liar and a deceiver. And everyone knows, Satan ALWAYS says one thing and does another.

Or does he?

In truth, he said plainly he had free will and anti-Christ through him seemed to prove he had free will by lying his whole life as to the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ and sexually DIS-obeying the God he said he worshipped and who had ’saved’ him.

Of course, the band will play on for the free will lie. “The Board” of “Evangelicals” will hire yet another Joker-faced liar who “loves Jesus” and at least in public loaths sodomy and homosexuality while also “loving the sinner” and “offering Jesus” to all supposed “takers” and saying “the homosexcual community is a hurting community”. The lie will go on for a time that they can “take responsibility”. (By which they intend to absorb some temporary emotional negatives and then ‘get back in the game’ of being “soul fishermen”. By which they purpose they really ‘take’ an invisble, non-existent thing as a rhetorical widget that seems to, and ‘in order to’ impress those they have taught the lie of free will all of their lives that “Christian maturity’ is demonstrated and proved by the absorption from time to time of emotional negatives and such invisible non-existents as “responsibility” as if it was real and proved by –free will..) .

————————————

So what has their “Church” really lost? Nothing. Those in anti-Christ’s ‘Church’ of free will never gained anything by what they did or did not do as the whole thing was and is a lie. So they have nothing to lose by simply ‘keeping on’ ‘doing’ ‘it’.

Now anti-Christ through Ted can lie for free instead of for a fee. And there will be those ears that love to hear anything he says now that he has “faced temptation” ..and lost. Now he has that “experience” so highly sought after by free willers everywhere. Ted will no doubt continue his lies about there being no such thing as new creature now in Jesus Christ but that “we” all have a “sin nature” as being fallen –even after being “born again” –that we ought to “struggle against” sin (falsely diefined as a mere act and not as the living creature it really is..) with “our free will” but that “we” can never win; but that somehow, in a Mysterious Way, Jesus “Won” that fight for us and that we just “rely on Him” when ever these little things come along so we can “rejoice” ..to do it again later and fail so ‘we’ can “rely on Him” even more. Free willers everywhere will wildly applaud him. He speaks their language and thinks thier way. He is thier worship pastor.

Proverbs 21:27,28 The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more when they bring it with a wicked purpose! A lying witness shall perish; and a man that heareth shall speak constantly.

1 Peter 2:7-12 To you therefore who believe is the preciousness; but to the disobedient, the stone which the builders cast away as worthless, this is become head of the corner, and a stone of stumbling and rock of offence; who stumble at the word, being disobedient to which also they have been appointed. But *ye* are a chosen race, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a people for a possession, that ye might set forth the excellencies of him who has called you out of darkness to his wonderful light; who once were not a people, but now God’s people; who were not enjoying mercy, but now have found mercy. Beloved, I exhort you , as strangers and sojourners, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; having your conversation honest among the Gentiles, that as to that in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may through your good works, themselves witnessing them , glorify God in the day of visitation.

In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen
