So sad ,Karan to see so many Christians  being so deceived by this book,where is the respect for God?

The book/movie is so popular , it's all leading up the Universal church :(

We have to speak against it and warn people for the book/movie , Christians can't take this lightly..:(

 

Praying~~

I felt he did a good job in the video.

He really seems to have a heart to protect the flock of God, I wish more were like him.
Great last few minutes too in warning others and pleading with us to "cling to God loves us so much, who gave us His all. The God of the Bible. The Triune God."
"Don't be mislead by all kind of warm and fuzzy descriptions that does not fit His own personal revelation in His Book."
(The Bible!)

Michael Youssef mentions Professor James B De Young at the 7:46 mark, who was a former friend of Paul Young's.

Professor James B De Young wrote a book I read called "Burning Down 'The Shack' exposing "The Shack's "universalim"

I thought it was fairly well done and prayerfully passed along several copies to others.

This Shacks "Hell" has similarities to the lie of "purgatory" as believed by those in Roman Catholicism.

More of my contention with the book "The Shack" is that it also opens the door for a sex change with God as a godess instead, (which Michael Youssef mentions) and in doing so I believe by proxy showing a transsexual god opening up the door for the transexuals among us to accept this univeralist false god of the shack, instead of repenting and believing on the Real God the Lord Jesus Christ...
A large black woman, "Papa." (That's not my Godly Father!)
And the Aisian (un) holy ghost Sarayu. (That's not the Holy Ghost!)

Very heretical indeed...

Brought up elsewhere here at Worthy, but posting here again for those who may not watch this 40 minute video:

Thirteen Heresies in The Shack,
written by Michael Youssef addresses 13 concerns with the novel and movie, and what the Bible has to say about them:

1. God the Father was crucified with Jesus.

Because God’s eyes are pure and cannot look upon sin, the Bible says that God would not look upon His own beloved Son as He hung on the Cross, carrying our sins (Habakkuk 1:13; Matthew 27:45).

2. God is limited by His love and cannot practice justice.

The Bible declares that God’s love and His justice are two sides of the same coin – equally a part of the personality and the character of God (Isaiah 61:8; Hosea 2:19).

3. On the Cross, God forgave all of humanity, whether they repent or not. Some choose a relationship with Him, but He forgives them all regardless.

Jesus explained that only those who come to Him will be saved (John 14:6).

4. Hierarchical structures, whether they are in the Church or in the government, are evil.

Our God is a God of order (Job 25:2).

5. God will never judge people for their sins.

The Word of God repeatedly invites people to escape from the judgment of God by believing in Jesus Christ, His Son (Romans 2:16; 2 Timothy 4:1-3).

6. There is not a hierarchical structure in the Godhead, just a circle of unity.

The Bible says that Jesus submitted to the will of the Father. This doesn’t mean that one Person is higher or better than the other; just unique. Jesus said, “I came to do the will of Him who sent me. I am here to obey my Father.” Jesus also said, “I will send you the Holy Spirit” (John 4:34, 6:44, 14:26, 15:26).

7. God submits to human wishes and choices.

Far from God submitting to us, Jesus said, “Narrow is the way that leads to eternal life.” We are to submit to Him in all things, for His glory and because of what He has accomplished for us (Matthew 7:13-15).

8. Justice will never take place because of love.

The Bible teaches that when God’s love is rejected, and when the offer of salvation and forgiveness is rejected, justice must take place or God has sent Jesus Christ to die on the cross for nothing (Matthew 12:20; Romans 3:25-26).

9. There is no such a thing as eternal judgment or torment in hell.

Jesus’ own description of hell is vivid. It cannot be denied (Luke 12:5, 16:23).

10. Jesus is walking with all people in their different journeys to God, and it doesn’t matter which way you get to Him.

Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life, and no one will come to the Father but by me” (John 14:6).

11. Jesus is constantly being transformed along with us.

Jesus, who dwells in the splendor of heaven, sits at the right hand of God, reigning and ruling the universe. The Bible says, “In Him there is no change, for He is yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 11:12, 13:8; James1:17).

12. There is no need for faith or reconciliation with God because everyone will make it to heaven.

Jesus said, “Only those who believe in me will have eternal life” (John 3:15, 3:36, 5:24, 6:40).

13. The Bible is not true because it reduces God to paper.

The Bible is God-breathed. Sure, there were many men through 1,800 years who put pen to paper (so to speak), each from different professions and different backgrounds, but the Holy Spirit infused their work with God’s words. These men were writing the same message from Genesis to Revelation. If you want to read more about the place of Christ in the Scripture, read “We Preach Christ” (2 Timothy 3:16).
