Max.Lucado.A.Movement.of.Grace
David Cloud reports Ecumenical which is the World Kingdom of the Devil
Max Lucado: "Lucado said he represents a 'movement of grace' in the Churches of Christ, 'a move away from legalism.' I sense that we are seeing a movement away from the older rigid doctrinal positions of the various denominations by the younger men who have taken charge.

James A. Harding, "The pastor is not a necessity. He is a FUNGUS GROWTH upon the church, the body of Christians, DWARFING its growth, PREVENTING its development of its members; and until the church GETS RID of him it will NEVER prosper as it should. In the Bible we can find all the necessities.
"I can testify from my own observation that a good eldership will lose its efficiency, and its members become both UNABLE and UNWILLING to do the work of elders, in a very few years after the employment of a pastor. And if under the pastor system a good eldership has ever developed, I have never seen or heard of the case. I don't believe that has or ever will be done." -- Gospel Advocate, May 20, 1885
Max represents those who have SECTED out of the Historic Church of Christ which does not need to JOIN WITH the World when we are commanded to come OUT of the World. A little flock called "The Way that is called a SECT" which is a road or pattern: it is very NARROW and only a tiny few FIND their way. Fools cannot stumble into the HIGH way. Max is not a Bible student or a Bible lover but dreams, sees visions or senses whatever whomever puts into his head. Apollon is the only personified spirit and he the leader of the muses or HIS musical worship team.
Max SENSES or has visions but Churches of Christ have always known about Grace. Max Lucado has no way of knowing that Scripture is almost always the Antithesis of the PAGAN Grace and MUSES (Locustx) who were favored blue-eye blond singer-prostitutes (always linked). Max confuses GRACE with LICENSE. When women imitate men and self-exhibit God sees people naked and exposed.
The Three graces represent the TRIPLE GODDESSES from which the ANTI-Christian trinity derives from the original Babylon mother of Harlots (Revelation 17). When her emasculated Speakers, singers or instrument players are used in Revelation 18 they are called LUSTED AFTER FRUITS. Jesus as HOLY SPIRT called them SORCERERS who had deceived the whole world once with her MUSICIANS whose DNA derives from Jubal the father of those who HANDLE (in a sexual sense) musical instruments. The BEASTS perform "A New Style of Music or Satyric (Pan) drama so that the LOCUSTS are called MUSICAL PROPHESIERS.
Max Lucado REJECTS Isaiah by the Spirit OF Christ on Baptism, the Direct connection between OBEDIENCE of HIS DOCTRINE about baptism, the Commands of the Apostles and the historic Church of Christ which will NEVER forfeit grace by removing His Title from its PUBLIC CONFESSION.
EPHESIANS 2 SALVATION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith;
and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Titus 2:11 For the [1] grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Titus 2:12
[2] Teaching us that,Acts 2:14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: [3] denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,
Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. [4] we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Acts 2:37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Titus 2:14
[5] Who gave himself for us,Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them Repent, [6] that he might redeem us from all iniquity, [Lawlesness]
Lutron redeem, Luo lavo , cleanse or wash, bathe,
lave. louô, purify, tina ek tôn hamartiôn
Col. 1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood,and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ
for the remission of sins,
Redemption or Remission happens ONLY after BAPTISM
even the forgiveness of sins:[7] and purify unto himself a peculiar people,
zealous of good works.and ye shall receive the gift of A holy spirit
Only those who obey the DOCTRINE of Jesus and are baptized are saved. The WORLD and the ECUMENICAL is the kingdom of the Devil.
The Gospel Jesus preached was not Lucado's DOCTRINE but the Gospel OF THE KINGDOM of the Church of Christ. A believer is one who is MARKED as part of the lost spirits Jesus came to seek and save: His only evangelists GO and just preach and the lost will jump at being baptized because they are part of the LITTLE (tiny) FLOCK.
Rom. 10:16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel.The DOCTRINE OF CHRIST and the New Covenant or DOMOS is a family EXCLUDING Priests or Levites. Domos EXCLUDES those outside of the HOUSE or Church of Christ
For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
2Th. 1:8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God,
and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
1Pet. 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God:
and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

Heb. 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
THIS LEVEL OF SALVATION IS "FROM THAT CROOKED RACE" OF VIPERS. They WANT to be baptized with WIND (spirit) and FIRE because they are denied water baptism by John.

MAX LUCADO DOES NOT GRASP THAT GRACE REMOVES THE LADED BURDEN AND BURDEN LADING CLERGY CALLED PARASITES
1Tim. 5:1 ¶ Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;
1Tim. 5:2 The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.
1Pet. 5:5 ¶ Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
Cast Your Cares on Him
1 Peter 5:4And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away. 5Young men, in the same way, submit yourselves to your elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, “- God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” 6Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you.…Berean Study Bible · Download
Proverbs 3:34
Though He scoffs at the scoffers, Yet He gives grace to the afflicted.
Ezekiel 26:16
"Then all the princes of the sea will go down from their thrones, remove their robes and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling; they will sit on the ground, tremble every moment and be appalled at you.
Luke 22:26
But you shall not be like them. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who leads like the one who serves.
I saw another example of this in a recent article in Charisma magazine about the United Pentecostal Church. It said some of the younger men are not satisfied with the past legalism and are willing to modify some of the finer points of their doctrinal position for the sake of ecumenism. Even the cults are joining in this movement, represented by the Worldwide Church of God. These new leaders are ecumenical and make no issue of doctrine. Finer points of doctrine are absolutely meaningless. That is why something as important as eternal security is a non-issue with them. It is becoming increasingly more difficult to pinpoint the heresy of heretical churches. The easy-going, doctrinally-generic church is becoming the norm" (Dave Cloud, June 9, 1997).
The First Creation was destroyed by Water: Jesus didn't create something to be destroyed. However, Jesus created something NEW which does mortal combat with those OF the World for who Jesus does not preach or pray: they cannot understand HIS DOCTRINE so they teach their own. Jesus said that the sons of the Devil SPEAK ON THEIR OWN. Jesus and His Disciples speak "that which is written for our learning.
John 11:52 And not for that nation only,
but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.
The Ecumenical of the kingdom of the Devil are NOT the children of God and Jesus will never be where the ECUMENICAL are are gathered or synagogues as a School of the Word Only.
Eph. 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times
he might gather together in one all things in Christ,
both which are in heaven, and which are ON earth; even in him:
The are ON the earth but they are not OF the World or Earth-born, just natural creatures. Those who are saved by Faith are Baptized INTO or clothed with Christ (Gal 3:27) and Max Lucado who repudiates baptism cannot be clothed with Christ because he is not hated, despised and tracked down and robbed of HIS church.
THE ECUMENICAL ENEMY OF CHRIST AND HIS DOCTRINE GATHER TOGETHER AGAINST CHRIST.

In Revelation 18 the Lusted After Fruits are speakers, singers, instrument players or anyone getting rich by selling the FREEwater of the World. They are called SORCERERS and the WILL BE CAST ALIVE INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE. Abaddon is the "spirit" his disciples HEAR as the leader of the Muses or Locusts. In Scripture and decent society anyone who sold religion was called a prostitute: Paul called it corrupting the WORD, logos or Regulative Principle.

Gary Holloway Ecumenical: First, [ecumenical] is biblical. “Ecumenical” is from the Greek word oikoumena, which is used 15 times in the New Testament for “the entire inhabited world.” The most interesting passage that relates to the modern meaning is Matthew 24:14: “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.”

"...this sect crowned the image of Jesus along with those of Pythagoras, Plato and Aristotle. Further, there were impostors of all varieties: magicians, soothsayers, jugglers, deceivers and hypocrites, 'who appeared using mighty words with a host of unintelligible formulae and taking up with scandalous ceremonies in order to rob men of their money." (Int. Std. Bible Ency., Gnosticism, p. 1246).

"The Orphic creeds were the basis of the Pythagorean brotherhood, which flourished in southern Italy beginning in the 6th century bc. The Pythagoreans were aristocratic fraternities that sometimes had a political scope. Their main achievements, however, lay in the fields of music, geometry, and astronomy. They discovered that these subjects could be explained by numbers and ratios. Combining Orphic eschatology (the study of the last things, especially death and afterlife) with their discoveries, they invested music, geometry, and astronomy with religious values. According to their doctrine, the original home of the soul was in the stars. From there ... (100 of 10,561 words)
"In cultic action music was used in preparation for prophecy. Julius Firmicus Maternus refers to this fact in his remarks on an African cult.
- With the air full of flute music,
- the priests would put on women's clothing and
- then call on the goddess so that,
- filled with a wicked spirit, they might
- predict the future to foolish men.
"In considering this cultic background it is necessary to understand the
- view of music as dispositive to divination,
- a view which derives from pagan philosophy.
This opinion resided in the old Pythagorean school, as Cicero notes. The Stoa also recognized the employment of music in the service of divination. According to Stoic teaching, ascesis and listen to music were preparations for the ecstasy which, along with purity of heart and a relationship with God, was considered to be the most favorable condition for prophesying.
The notion which was basic to this conception was closely connected with belief in the purifying power of music. In both instances there was a question of eleminating tensions and obstacles in man which could stand in the way of the infusion of the divine and its revelation. (Quasten, Johannes, pg. 40)
Abaddon-Apollon as leader of the muses (Locusts) was called the WASHER claiming that the music-induced madness purified the soul.
Lucado holds an unscriptural view of Christian unity which is helping to break down the walls of separation between truth and error and which is preparing the way for the building of a one-world apostate "church." Lucado helped organize an ecumenical alliance of pastors in his home town, which has grown to more than 100. The pastors are learning to "put away differences" in order to deepen personal relationships. It includes women pastors, Charismatics, and others. Cindy Daniel, for example, is co-pastor with her husband of Expect a Miracle Church. Newman Dollar, pastor of City View Christian Fellowship, who, with Lucado, was one of the founders of this ecumenical fellowship, told the San Antonio Express-News (Feb. 19, 2000) that he wants to see more pastors from Catholic churches participating.
Lucado was a signer of the deceptive "The Gift of Salvation" declaration between evangelicals and Catholics in November 1997. This declaration was also known as "Evangelicals and Catholics Together II." We exposed the danger and error of this statement in the article "Evangelicals and Catholics Confusing the Gift of Salvation," which was published December 7, 1997. We noted that "The Gift of Salvation" is a bland and, in the ecumenical context, insufficient affirmation of the doctrine of biblical justification. In typical New Evangelical fashion, the evangelical authors and signers omitted many things that are necessary to properly delineate the true Bible Gospel from the false Roman Catholic one. For the most part, what they stated about justification is not inherently unscriptural; THE MOST SERIOUS PROBLEM LIES IN WHAT THEY FAILED TO STATE. This, of course, is the root error of New Evangelicalism.
Lucado's unscriptural view of unity was also evident when he spoke at the 1996 Promise Keepers Clergy Conference for Men in Atlanta, Georgia. According to Promise Keeper leader Dale Schlafer, priests, bishops and pastors were present from every denomination in America.
