MARK DRISCOLL My FACEBOOK post of 13 August 2014

 [PDF]

Some years ago I wrote articles critical of MARK DRISCOLL and I took some ‘flak’ for doing so as you will be able to read in articles for which I shall shortly give links.

In recent times “the wheels have been coming off Mark Driscoll’s wagon” and I say that in much sorrow and not with any sense of ‘triumphalism’. And again I will shortly give links about some of those developments.

However, I think the most powerful commentary on the problems associated with the ministry of MARK DRISCOLL must be in a letter that has been posted by a former church associate of his, Ron Wheeler. It can be viewed on

FACEBOOK posting 21st May 2014

As an example of how preaching the truth of The Bible is possibly going to be muzzled in my own home country in the future then the story on this link could provide evidence for that –

I would certainly have issues with Mr McConnell in a number of important doctrinal areas but I would find it difficult to disagree with his bible-based assessment of the subject matter of his recent sermon. It would appear that the BBC are spearheading their own ‘investigation’ into what he said but that is not surprising when we consider that (as I understand it) the head of Religious Broadcasting for the whole of the BBC is a member of the religion referred to by Mr McConnell.

Following on from my earlier post about the possible police investigation into truths expressed during a sermon that was preached last Sunday I am copying herewith an email that was forwarded to me and I would encourage all to read it and to then please sign the petition link. Dear …, Please join Personhood USA in their fight to defend Meriam Ibrahim from the unjust death sentence issued to her by the Sudanese government.

‘THE GREAT CONTROVERSY’ – A book to avoid

  [PDF]

Like every household in Northern Ireland we get our regular mail delivery of promotional leaflets advertising the sale items available in the likes of stores such as ‘Lidl’, ‘Spar’ and ‘Vivoxtra’. Tucked in this week amongst those colourful leaflets was a plain black and white A5 sized leaflet headed ‘THE GREAT CONTROVERSY’.

Part of the text on the leaflet read as follows – ‘As each day passes we see and hear snippets and details of news, but is there more? We sense there is – for we hear of international monetary systems, a global curriculum for education… a world parliament of religions and an international version of the Bible. Who plans such things? Who takes the lead – and why?… Did you know that the Bible speaks of these events? There is a conflict going on, but is it the one you think it is? … The FREE book we are offering speaks of this – You need this powerful book today! “THE GREAT CONTROVERSY” is an essential read… Why not read the book and examine its claims and test the evidence for yourself’.

This leaflet was issued by the Seventh-day Adventist Church and is promoting one of the major books written by their founding ‘prophetess’ Ellen G White. It contains the major heresies promoted by this cultic grouping and if you go to the article on the link I will provide you can read why one former SDA pastor eventually resigned because of these heresies. You will also see my own additional comments on a number of their false teachings including a section on ‘The Great Controversy’. The link to the article is
