What Rick Warren’s little diatribe will do is put God-fearing churches who honor the Word of God under a spotlight. The world will point to Saddleback and say “See! There’s what a truly loving church does!” He’s setting his business model up as the only possible means by which 1/

churches can “legitimately” operate in the coming new order. The almighty government will dole out the “freedom” to function as a church if you meet its standards for “safety” and Warren will be the poster child for how to do so. Churches that seek to meet biblically will face 2/

intense public pressure and scrutiny. The redefinition of “discrimination” as given by Warren will be the standard and we will be faced with the choice, comply and still be a “church” or be forced into closure. I’m no prophet nor do I play one on TV. But watch and see. End/
