MOHO Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Investigating the truthiness of xanity by studying apologetics and apologists. Let's hope this leads him to authors mentioned many times on this site who take a look beyond those who've claimed to have "proven" the validity of Christianity. The first comment by "AllOfOurTwists" makes me want to hurl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhim Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Daily Wire is where I first heard this news (oh yes, I'm a subscriber). Poor Knowles was lamenting this. I like the guy despite that he is Catholic, but to me his lament was a cause for celebration. Hillsong Church is a powerful force in evangelical Christianity, and the departure of one of their own is a decent blow to them at a cultural level. Maybe these people will found a more public ex-Christian community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♦ Fuego ♦ Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 The comments... the endless comments, each one with "the answer". Nothing about the utter failure of god's promises, the utter emptiness of the constant shell game of god's silence somehow being his perfect answer despite promises to the contrary, nothing but conform to the faith, rebuke for straying publicly, can't trust your mind even though your mind just said that... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midniterider Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 So many non-True Christians calling themselves Christians these days. How can you know for sure if one is really real or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midniterider Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 So will Josh's Harris' books be taken off the shelves? Or remain? A few months ago his Jesus believing fans were lapping up his pro Jesus books...but now ?? Do they still have good Jesusy information in them ? Or is it now not so Jesusy? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've come to understand, he repudiated his prior teachings before he finally repudiated the Jesus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
