Brannon Howse: September 9, 2010

Topic One: Is history repeating itself? Evangelical, Pastor Oswald J. Smith of Canada, after visiting German in the early 1930s, praised Hitler and said that an "evangelical awakening" was coming to Germany despite the fact the German people had bought into moral relativism. Mormon Glenn Beck has said that America is seeing a third Great Awakening and some evangelicals are agreeing with him despite that fact that pagan spirituality is doubling in America every eighteen months. Why will uniting with all religions not bring a Biblical Great Awakening but God's judgment? Topic Two: Is it possible that some Christian leaders and Christians are not seeing the spiritual deception of the last days because some of them are false coverts that lack Biblical and spiritual discernment? One Christian leader told Brannon a couple of years ago that someone could be a Christian and believe that Jesus was not the only way. Is that statement true or false? Brannon explains how he was a false convert and leading a Christian organization at one time in his life and warns that just because someone is a "Christian" leader does not mean they are a true covert and we need to test the fruit of their doctrine according to God's Word. For what fruit should we be looking? Topic Three: In 1933, Pastor Julius Leutherser gushed, "Christ has come to us through Hitler…through his honesty, faith and idealism, the Redeemer found us…We know today the Savior has come…we have only one task, be German, not Christian." Glenn Beck said his rally was not a Christian event but a God event. Are many of America's Christians willing to set aside sound Biblical doctrine and theology to save America's financial prosperity and freedom? Are many in the American Church now embracing ecumenical patriotism that is becoming a form of nationalism? Topic Four: Brannon plays sound clips of his Pastor preaching this past Sunday on Beck's 8-28 rally. Hear Dr. Chuck Herring speak on these issues in his sermon: The problem with Beck's idea of another Great Awakening, Richard Land and other pastors uniting with all faiths, Christian broadcasters think God can use a Mormon to bring Biblical revival, what is heresy?, the church will be hated and persecuted greatly in the next five to ten years for not agreeing with ecumenicalism, and why he could not Biblically unite with Beck at this rally along with the pastors that did.(This program originally aired on 9-8-10 at 1pm CT)
