Rick Warren Lies About Charles Spurgeon

Rick Warren, former pastor of Saddleback Church was recently appointed as Chancellor of Spurgeon’s College. This raised not a few eyebrows given that Warren is now fully egalitarian, meaning that he embraces women as preachers and pastors. Warren assures us, though, that his theology and that of Charles Spurgeon are “identical” on this issue. Is that true? I interview Dr. Ed Romine who just recently wrote his doctoral dissertation on Charles Spurgeon and pose the question to him.

I know Ed quite well. He is a good guy doing really good, important work. If you would like to support Ed's ministry financially please click this link and choose the dropdown menu item titled "Romine Support." Donating monthly would be a huge blessing. Thank you!

My biggest ministry has been my children. I love being a housewife and mother, training my children in the ways of the Lord. It was my God given desire to be a housewife and mother since I was a teenager. Now I’m seeing the fruits of that. They are now young adults serving the Lord.

[Iamalittlestitious]

This is so disturbing. Thank you for addressing this. To put Warren in that position is a disgrace to Spurgeon, a man who preached Gods Word rightly. Spurgeon would have definitely recognized Warren as a false teacher.

So very hard to complain about my health issues when I see these dear servants of God getting it done. May God bless them greatly.

If Rick Warren became chancellor of R.C. Sproul's Reformation Bible Seminary, he would have said from glory, "What's wrong with you people!?"

[CouldntKarenLess]

I want to have a cup of coffee with Ed! What a blessing to meet him. Thank you for sharing this friend and brother with us, dear Justin.

Mr. Justin. It is such a joy to listen to you. You preach the full gospel and have NO ERRORS. I am x Muslim. You helped me to understand the Bible after I got saved when I was serving in the U.S. Navy.
God bless you man!

[Savedbygrace]

I remember seeing that video of Ed street preaching. What a faithful servant of Christ. Thank you Ed for those wonderful long contextual quotes. That’s the correct way to teach. Thanks Justin for giving him a platform to share the truth✝️

[joeystrains.]

Justin, Ed is one cool dude! A pleasure to hear him speak of open air preaching history.

[carolberubee]

Warren is a menace to truth and integrity. Thank you, Ed, for so clearly teaching us the truth about Spurgeon and the Word of God.

[rodneysparks]

This guy is a joy. Great guest Bro. Peters!!

[Americanwoman]

Dr Ed looks so young to be so highly educated

[paulasueInChrist]

Thank you for introducing us to Pastor Ed. What a joyful, highly intelligent, faithful preacher!

[elijahbutler]

This is why I love your channel, Brother. You bring so many good preachers and teachers into a public space. I watch hours of discernment content and it can be discouraging seeing how many false teachers there are and how widespread false doctrine is. Then I come to this channel and see that there are a multitude of men who are proclaiming the true and sound gospel of Jesus Christ. Thank you Ed as well! Very informative and encouraging as well. I pray that you will be able to find that forever home!

[Iamalittlestitious]

I have watched Ed on other peoples pages. He’s precious. God bless him.

[carolcloukeymather]

When I went to seminary, many people thought that I wanted to be ordained. I went to a seminary that didn't believe in women's ordination! Thank you so much for this! I graduated with MA in Biblical Counseling.

[EpicMushroom]

Greetings from New Zealand. Bless you Brother Justin. I am currently reading 3 Spurgeon books. What a faithful shepherd he was and likewise with yourself. God Bless you Brother.
Titus 1:9 Amen.

[Ancient-Paths]

Thank you so much Ed for your study - as a woman I am in complete agreement with you and Spurgeon.

[debbie]

Which to me, it indicates women in the pulpit can’t be fully separated from Women’s Rights/Feminism but my friends who are charismatic won’t admit this.

[Deneen-o]

Glad to hear Ed call out the college as well as Rick Warren. If the college is saying that Spurgeon held an egalitarian view like Rick Warren, then they are just as lost... 😢

[anitasmith]

Thank you both, and may you both be blessed as you faithfully proclaim Christ and His Gospel.
