We should not be surprised in the least.
Some 2000 years ago Jesus and the disciples warned us quite clearly that many would fall away, many would sell out on the faith, many would fall for lies and deception, and many would seek to lead others astray.
They made it so very plain that false prophets, false shepherds and false apostles would freely roam among believers, leading many away from the Word of God and biblical morality. And we see this happening all over the place today, especially with the issue of homosexuality.
One so-called Christian leader after another is abandoning the faith, spitting in God’s face, and calling him a liar, as they come out and join the world in affirming, promoting and celebrating the sin of homosexuality. As I have said before, this is the defining issue of our day, and it is separating the sheep from the goats.
In that sense all this is a good thing: it is demonstrating who are the apostates, and who are the true disciples of Jesus Christ. The latest wolf in sheep’s clothing to come out of the theological closet is American evangelical leader Tony Campolo.
Of course anyone even remotely knowledgeable about him and his teaching over the years knows this was inevitable. Not only has his wife been 100% pro-homosexuality for ages now, but he has been at best wishy-washy on this topic for decades.
Now he openly tells us what we all knew: he finds nothing at all wrong with homosexuality or sodomite marriage.
Welcome to the apostasy club where there are plenty of other like-minded folks. They all exult in their “progressive” position, as they jump in bed with atheists, homosexualists, and secular humanists, all telling us God is wrong and his Word is not reliable.
