God's Global Peace Plan
Dedicated to the churches of Jesus Christ our Saviour in the 67 countries in which Rick Warren has tested his pilot PEACE plan in 2005, the 131 countries he has been working on for the last two years, to those who speak the 56 languages in which Purpose Driven Life has already been translated, and to rest of the nations throughout the uttermost parts of the earth that he has targeted to consummate the roll-out for his plan in 2006. This is also dedicated to the tens of thousands of churches which have already been stolen by Rick Warren’s teachings and to the saints who were purpose-driven from those churches for opposing his teachings and covenants, many of whom now have no church; and to all of those pastors and church members still on the fence about Rick Warren’s teachings.We hope this will help alert you to the magnitude and scope of this religion and movement and sound an alarm to those Christians who have never heard of Rick Warren.
A Parable of Purpose-Driven Christianity
First they came for "resisters" and "pillars" of Brunswick Reformed Church, Brunswick, Ohio, because they opposed The Purpose Driven Life and Church. But I didn't speak up because I was not a member of the Reformed Church of American (RCA) denomination.
Then they came after a woman who was an elder lady in the faith who had been with the First Baptist Church of Dallas, Texas, since 1956, by shouting her down with spiritual euthanasia and aggressive, mean-spirited behavior . . . and the intimidation of seven attorneys, because she opposed them turning their landmark Criswell Center into a purpose-driven entertainment center. But I did not speak up because I was not a widow.
Then they held a trial for two families at Valley Baptist Church in Lakeland, Minnesota. But I didn't speak up because I was not a member of the General Baptist Convention. Then a brother finally did speak up and tried to warn Eugene Christian Fellowship because they had gone purpose-driven, but they threatened legal action and told him to stop spamming them. And I did not speak up for fear of being accused of spamming or being sued by a church.
Then a reporter for a large Christian radio network sounded the alarm of this clear and present danger. They ran the story, but received more gnashing of teeth from callers than they had ever had, so they censored this story from their print news service. Then a brother on another Christian radio ministry broadcast testimonies of Christians thrown out of their churches across the country, but the network threatened to remove his show if another broadcast was ever made that said anything bad about Rick Warren. But I did not speak up because I had friends and family who were either employed by an organization that either promoted or were in a purpose-driven church, and I did not want to lose those relationships.
Then they came after a large group of members at New Hope Church in Bend, Oregon. But I didn't speak up because I wasn't a member of the Evangelical Church denomination or the National Association of Evangelicals. Then they came after a carpenter and his wife at Calvary Community Church in Phoenix, Arizona, with a sheriff to escort him off of the grounds, for trying to expose the deeds of darkness and the teachings of Rick Warren, telling the carpenter that if he returned, he would be arrested. And I didn't speak up because I wasn't a member of the Calvary Chapel denomination. Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one left to speak up for me, because every church in the nation had become purpose-driven and part of his global PEACE plan.
