UNMASKING THE CHARISMATIC HERESY "For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine but, following their own desires and insatiable curiosity, will accumulate teachers and will stop listening to the truth and will be diverted to myths" 2 Timothy 4:3-4 - "False messiahs and false prophets will arise and will perform signs and wonders in order to mislead, if that were possible, the elect" Mark 13: 22 - "The smoke of Satan has entered the Church" Pope Paul VI

PURPOSE DRIVEN PRIEST



Fr. Joseph M. Champlin wrote a book titled “A Catholic Perspective on the Purpose Driven Life”.

This is how one publishing company is marketing the stuff: “…Provides opportunities for guided reflection, sharing and prayer that reinforce many of Pastor Rick Warren's points with additional commentary on areas where Catholic teaching varies. Using this companion guide, which follows Warren's 40-dat process, either individually or in a group, will assist Roman Catholics in transforming their lives and appreciating the richness and beauty of their Faith tradition.



What is so important in Warren’s message that a Catholic priest has to write an instruction manual on how to navigate through truth, half truths and downright lies? With the same token why not write a book on how to apply Buddhism, Protestantism and New Age to our faith? Ops, I forgot – it’s been done.

I wonder how many people will use Fr Champlin’s book for reference. Fr Champlin’s book is traitorous really; all he did was point Catholics toward Warren’s book.

Most people wouldn’t mix poison with their food. That would not be good for the body. Is the soul less deserving?

About Me

Canada
I am a recovering charismatic and a Catholic Orthodox; observing orthopraxis to the best of my ability. I acknowledge what the Church REALLY DOES TEACH; opposed to what some people erroneously say the Church teaches. “Catholic Orthodoxy” is proposed "to conform to the Catholic faith as taught by the Magisterium of the Church. So an "orthodox" person is one who is FAITHFUL to the teachings of the Church, whereas a "heterodox" person is somebody who rejects ANY Catholic dogma. Orthopraxis means "Performing the correct actions". Catholic Orthodoxy is defined by the Catechism: it tells us what we have to TO BELIEVE. Catholic Orthopraxis is denoted by the Code of Canon Law: it spells out what we have TO DO. Because “Truth is not determined by a majority vote" -- Pope Benedict XVI.
