I am done with movements…
with charismatic movements,
back to the bible movements,
moderate movements,
conservative resurgence movements,
anti-institutional church movements,
liberal church movements,
liberation movements,
grace movements,
restoration of the church movements,
finished work movements,
Trinitarian movements,
morality movements,
Jesus movements,
spiritual renewal movements,
THE KEY WORLD I AM DONE WITH IS MOVEMENTS
Movements almost always are hijacked by charlatans
Movements have leaders who are unteachable
Movements have sycophants followers
Movements think only its participants can be right
Movements have presumed inerrant doctrines and dogmas
Movements cannot handle doubts, questions, or inquiries
Movements assume that if you question something is wrong with you
Movements pretend to be your friends if you stay in line
Movements have a “whose in” and “whose out” approach to people
Movements create an “us” verses “them” mentality
Movements aim to make you feel awful about yourself to control you
Movements are elitist and gnostic
Movements function with hype but little substance
Movements advocate experiences over reason and logic
Movements mimic worldly values
Movements manipulate using guilt
Movements must have an enemy
Movements feel the need to destroy their enemies at any and all cost
Movements make motivational preaching into theology
Movements vale intuitions and mysticism over bible and theology
No thanks. I’ll take Jesus instead
