“Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which causedivisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which yehave learned; and avoid them” (Romans 16:17).“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers:for what fellowship hath righteousness withunrighteousness? and what communion hath light withdarkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? orwhat part hath he that believeth with an infidel? Andwhat agreement hath the temple of God with idols? forye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, Iwill dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be theirGod, and they shall be my people” (2 Corinthians6:14-16).“Having a form of godliness, but denying the powerthereof: from such turn away” (2 Timothy 3:5).Warren also warned that Baptists often are “known forwhat we’re against rather than what we’re for.”In his opinion, that is wrong, but it isn’t wrong whenmeasured biblically. The Lord Jesus Christ frequentlypreached red-hot messages on Hell, and He was known forHis opposition to the Sadducees and Pharisees, thetheological liberals and Catholic priests of His day. Theapostle Paul, following in His Master’s footsteps, also spentmuch of his time preaching against sin and error, both in thebook of Acts and in his epistles.The Baptist World Alliance is an ecumenical alliance of211 Baptist denominations in more than 140 countries. It ispermeated with theological liberalism and supports new ageone-world organizations such as the United Nations (UN).As far back as the 1930s, the Baptist World Alliance was ahotbed of modernism. When J. Frank Norris led the TempleBaptist Church of Detroit, Michigan, to withdraw from theBWA in 1935, he cited its “modernistic dominatedleadership” as a reason (The F. Frank Norris I Have Known64
for 34 Years, p. 311). Prior to that, fundamentalist leader A.C.Dixon had tried to have a resolution passed in the BaptistWorld Alliance affirming “five fundamental verities of thefaith,” including the verbal inspiration of Scripture and thevirgin birth of Jesus Christ, but an apostate majority of theBWA representatives voted down this simple resolution.Things have only gotten worse since then.Desmond Tutu spoke at a Baptist World Alliance meetingin 1988. Anglican archbishop Tutu is a rank liberal who inFebruary 1996 called for the ordination of homosexualpriests. Consider the following quotes that expose Tutu’sunbelieving heart:“Some people thought there was something odd aboutJesus’ birth. ... It may be that Jesus was an illegitimateson” (Desmond Tutu, Cape Times, October 24, 1980).“The Holy Spirit is not limited to the Christian Church.For example, Mahatma Gandhi, who is a Hindu ... TheHoly Spirit shines through him” (Desmond Tutu, St.Alban’s Cathedral, Pretoria, South Africa, November 23,1978).Brutal Marxist dictator Fidel Castro, who has persecutedand restricted the churches of Jesus Christ in Cuba fordecades, was a speaker at the Baptist World Alliance meetingin July 2000.On January 24, 2002, Denton Lotz, general secretary of theBaptist World Alliance, joined hands with Pope John Paul IIand the leaders of other denominations and pagan religions atthe third Day of Prayer for World Peace at Assisi, Italy. Thisecumenical pagan prayer gathering featured some 200religious leaders, including representatives of suchdenominations as Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican,Reformed, Baptist, Lutheran, Mormon, Methodist, Quaker,Pentecostal, Mennonite, as well as representatives of Islam,65
