Saddleback Purpose Driven Falsehood

Saddleback Church is modeled after Rick Warren's "Purpose Driven" model. In this video, I summarize John MacArthur's short analysis of Warren's unbiblical vision for church growth.

The problem with deception is that people don’t know that they are deceived 🤔😢

Thanks Alan! Saddleback is a dangerous place. My best friend went there and served in ministry for a couple years, she thought she was a Christian. After she moved, in God’s Providence she attended a reformed church and was saved truly. She now sees the burden she was “saddled “with (pun intended). She felt like she had to keep in God’s good graces to be blessed and to hear his voice to know he was pleased with her. No gospel just works righteousness. We both attend a wonderful church here in Utah that teaches the 5 solas and the doctrines of grace. Praise God

I like your mission to identify false leaders and churches. Praying for eyes to be opened and hearts on fire for Jesus!

As someone who has raised atheist I Started Loving Rick one but one time I heard him say" it will almost be impossible to go to hell". Now I was just learning about scripture and what true and what isn't but that was a serious red flag for me even as a new believer. Before that I heard about his book The Purpose Driven Life and I had her people talk about how great it was. Then I heard someone on YouTube Bring up the fact that there's nowhere in that bucket tells you to repent. Then I started noticing a bunch of other things I don't remember the specifics but it was obvious he was not being a Biblical teacher.

Thank you brother Allen. I always appreciate your thoughtful, reasoned, & well researched responses. This channel is a gift that keeps giving! Not only is it a blessing to learn from, it teaches & presents apologetic points that provide us with information we can use to share with & help others!

Ecumenism, culture-driven, Chrislam, the message bible, business model... where is the exclusive Gospel of Christ and sound doctrine?

[KDapologetic]

It’s seems like the other 50k followers came overnight! Congrats on the subs! Great biblical content. God bless you brother!

Thank you Alan, once again, for shedding light on the darkness! Which is what we are supposed to do as Christians. So many thousands of people are being deceived by these false teachers and it is our responsibility to call out these wolves in sheep’s clothing. Romans 16:17-18

I used to sell books and bibles, door to door to help pay for college. What I saw and learned is how much sales and motivational practices, sprinkled with scripture, in many of the books is in the church. Mix that with new age mysticism, yoga, occult, witchcraft and entertainment and we have the modern, so called church..

Hello Sir, another great video with an important message. Thank you. I've looked for a church in my area for some time with no luck. I'm grateful for you and Pastor Peters and Pastor Macarthur. With much Christian love and blessings to you.

Thanks brother Allen(or is it Alan?) I always look forward to these videos!
Thanks for your faithfulness to God's Word!

Ironically it’s not “seeker” sensitive…
It’s “goat” seeking

[elaineleonard]

Rick Warren has done more to drive the gospel out of the church than any other person I can think of. Whether he intentionally or unintentionally did so is up in the air.

[lindseyh]

I think they call it “Saddleback” because you’re going to need to saddle up to carry the heavy burdens their teachings will put on you!

[LuisCruz-stnz]

Thank u Alan for your eye and showing the world and Christian's of the truth about the are God and are savior Jesus Christ and what the bible speaks on. U and all the followers that come on u tube to help people like me who are confused and trying to learn the truth of God and Jesus live for us all by sharing his word and exploding the false teachers and so called leaders. God bless u Allen and protect u my brother in Christ

[JustBobbi]

See you in Starlight city!!

I didn’t like self help books. They are not God driven. They are self driven.

[toomanyhobbies]

I went to a church that used some of Warren's "Purpose Driven Life" ideas which we used in a prison ministry. I'm not sure what the "purpose" was, but prisoners found it helped change their attitudes...
The pastor called himself a "professional that would stay until his 20 year retirement". His sermons where not exegetical, but mostly based on his and other's anecdotes and how the Bible related to those experiences. There were a lot of money-wealthy people in that church and he lived in a nice house on a golf course...

[luigidibenedetto]

as for me i will continue touching lives with the love of God n the gospel of reconciliation
