Now the concept of humanism and the humanities is very noble. To be humanitarianism (sic) is good. But secular humanism is actually a type of religion. It's actually atheism in a new guise.

  • 79 Pastor's Marital Relationship One of the Most Significant Reasons
    79 CHAPTER 3 THE CAUSES AND CURE OF THE MORAL FAILURE OF PASTORS Pastor’s Marital Relationship One of the most significant reasons behind pastoral attrition is the increasing number of clergy who violate their marital vows and commit adultery. This has become so commonplace in the United States that an alarm about this grave danger must be sounded to young pastors entering the ministry. Here we will examine how prevalent the problem is quantitatively, and then look for causes and cures. All of my research and interviews with pastors who have failed morally indicate an interesting common denominator—almost every pastor admitted to me that his marriage was not vibrant, romantic, sexually passionate, or spiritually intimate when he began the affair. The fallen pastors remarked that their marital relationship(s) had corroded to that of a “roommate” coexistence instead of that of two lovers achieving new levels of spiritual, emotional, and sexual intimacy. Sexual activity and intimacy was stale, unplanned, and infrequent. These marriages resembled more of a brother/sister relationship than that of lovers—they were simply two people coexisting. Similarly, the couples’ spiritual bond was disconnected, as evidenced by infrequent prayer time together and less sharing of spiritual needs. I interviewed a number of successful, young, cutting-edge pastors who built large churches and who each committed adultery at around their five-year church anniversaries, just as their congregations showed signs of permanent influence and establishment, several with 1,000 or more people attending. 80 Why the five-year mark of moral decline? Why in the midst of becoming established and showing outward signs of success? According to a report published by the Francis Schaeffer Institute of Church Leadership, 77 percent of pastors responding to a survey indicated that they did not have a good marriage.83 Several of the pastors I interviewed indicated their poor marriages were a reality for years prior to the start of their churches and their illicit affairs.

  • An Examination of the Prosperity Gospel: a Plea for Return to Biblical Truth
    Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary AN EXAMINATION OF THE PROSPERITY GOSPEL: A PLEA FOR RETURN TO BIBLICAL TRUTH This Thesis Project Submitted to The faculty of Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary In Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Ministry By Aaron B. Phillips Lynchburg, Virginia August 2015 Copyright © 2015 by Aaron B. Phillips All Rights Reserved i Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary Thesis Project Approval Sheet ______________________________ Dr. Charlie Davidson, Associate Professor of Chaplaincy Mentor ______________________________ Dr. David W. Hirschman Associate Prof of Religion, Reader ii ABSTRACT AN EXAMINATION OF THE PROSPERITY GOSPEL: A PLEA FOR RETURN TO BIBLICAL TRUTH Aaron B. Phillips Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary, 2015 Mentor: Dr. Charlie Davidson The prosperity gospel teaches that the Bible promises health, wealth and uncommon success to all believers. A problem surfaces when the prosperity that is promised does not materialize to all members of the congregation. In examining the validity of this teaching, extensive writings, books, articles and sermons by leading proponents, have been reviewed. Additionally, interviews with at least one hundred pastors inform this writing. The purpose of the research is to furnish contemporary, active insight to this project. The conclusion of this writer is that the prosperity gospel offers an unbalanced application of scripture, which results in a departure from a clear biblical orientation for articulating the doctrine of Jesus Christ.
