Southern Baptist Pastor Rick Warren Is Promoting Apostate Roman Catholicism
May 19, 2007
From Pastor Ken Silva at Christian Research Net:
Here are the “helpful links” from Purpose Driven Catholics at Purpose Driven.com which clearly show Rick Warren is actively promoting apostate Roman Catholicism. For example there’s the Catholic Currier.com
The Catholic Courier, weekly newspaper of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester, New York, was founded by lay Catholics in 1889 as The Catholic Journal… Bishop Matthew H. Clark, leader of the Diocese of Rochester, is both publisher of the Catholic Courier and president of the RCPA. (Online source)
At Purpose Driven Catholics you’ll also find the link to The Georgia Bulletin, the online “Newspaper of the [Roman] Catholic Archdiocese of Atlanta.” And finally there’s Saint Theresa of Avila Parish – The Mother Roman Catholic Church of Southeast Washington named after the so-called “Christian” mystic and Carmelite nun Teresa of Avila. We’re told there that Father Ray East is the “grandson of Baptist missionaries to South Africa,” and he “has served in six Washington parishes before being named director of the Office of Black Catholics and Vicar for Evangelization” (Online source)
That’s right, above we see that America’s Mega-Pastor Rick Warren, a Southern Baptist “evangelical,” is providing as a helpful link the church for the Vicar for Evangelization in the Office of Black [Roman] Catholics. Can someone please explain to me how the Southern Baptist denomination, allegedly one of the largest “Protestant” denominations in the world, says absolutely nothing while one its most prominent pastors is actively promoting apostate Roman Catholicism and even helping them to build bigger churches.
Do we seriously think that God is going to bless the SBC while no one says anything while this kind of purpose driven lunacy in the Lord’s Name is going on?

Thanks for picking this up Shane. This is probably going to escalate because now I know that Mark Kelly, who is Rick Warren’s apologist (”News and Editorial Director for Saddleback”), has read this piece you pick up here.
This is my followup piece in which you’ll see his response to this article:
