THE DA VINCI MYTH VS THE GOSPEL TRUTH
the pew who gives at offering time.
Then there is the “sold-out-to-the-world-spirit”
crowd—the group within the professing Church that
embraces every fad that comes down the pike (the latest
of which is The Da Vinci Code), even when it may be diametrically
opposed to Christ. During news broadcasts
about some new attack on Christ, there is often featured
some clergyman who is found to be a spokesman on the
anti-Christian side. When the film The Last Temptation of
Christ came out, the National Council of Churches spoke
out in favor of it.
In recent years, some mainstream denominations
have come out with committee reports on human
sexuality to be considered by the church-governing body.
Some of these reports read virtually like tracts written in
the heyday of the Sexual Revolution—to promote sexual
sin under the umbrella of misnomers like “justice love.”
They condone just about every sexual perversion under
the sun—in the name of Christianity. You wouldn’t
know there had been a downside to the Sexual
Revolution and that more than 50 million Americans are
suffering with a sexually-transmitted disease. (While
such viral infections can be controlled, they can’t be
cured, and they often recur.)
And then, of course, there is what the Bible teaches
about human sexuality. But to many leaders of these
denominations, the Scriptures would appear to be
obsolete. The Bible has been thrown out and
Playboy brought in.
