that ending was perfect: 'I fear the disapproval of God more than the disapproval of you or society', as a Christian, you've gotta love that!
He truly is a man of faith. God bless him
Big Fat Amen!!!
Pure nonsense!
I agree, that was the correct comment for sure. Although Rick Warren from my understanding say Christians should also accept Muslims.. Chrislam.. and that I just can't agree with.
Dude yes!!! I was just gonna type that in as a comment. Praise God !! Amen.
It's crazy to me watching an unbeliever trying to pastor a Pastor.
Ikr
Trueeeee. Like, the Word of God is stronger and can't be taken down by anyone ❤
And a pastor not man enough to take a firm stand on what the Word says.
Unfortunately piers sees Christianity as a political thing. So he feels like it should change like other secular political ideas. He doesn't realize the message of christ is eternal and real amd everlasting
You nailed it, Mark. Agree 100%, I think the reverend's stance when opposing to go against his own conscience as a believer is genuine. On the other hand, he shows total respect for those who think different to him regarding people relationships. This is as good as it gets, and leaves Piers without arguments, just saying.
YESSSS!!! A Christian who isn't afraid to say he's a Christian regardless of what people say or think!!
AJ Maynard yesss an asshole let people have rights finally
Rick Warren is not a born again Christian, if someone is for the New World Order. Then how is that person a born again Christian? The Holy Bible is against homosexuality but just because someone's against it doesn't make them a born again Christian. Be careful who you listen too!!! Rick Warren's beliefs is not accurate to the Holy Bible. The Holy Bible is against the New World Order!!! Paul says, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your HEART that God raised Him from the dead. You shall be SAVED!!! It is only through Jesus Christ that we are saved and not of our works!!! Jesus said through men this is impossible but through God all things are possible. Believe on the Son of God!!!
You cannot lose your salvation. When you put your full trust in Jesus Christ on the finish work that He did on the cross of Calvary by paying the admission of our sins past, present, and future. When you put your full trust in Jesus Christ, you are sealed, you are saved till the day of redemption!!! I'm not going to sugarcoat it, the Holy Bible is against homosexuality, it's against getting drunk, it's against doing drugs, it's against harming your body!!!
But through God's grace, through Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father!!! This cannot be by force or manipulation but by a willing HEART and God draws any person who was willing in their HEART to accept His Son as their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ by putting their full trust in Him!!! Repent!!! That means turning away from your sinful lifestyle!!! The things that do not glorify God. Come to God with open arms and because if anyone is willing, God will draw that person to His Son. Repenting does not mean asking for forgiveness, but Allowing God to have grace and mercy on you. And if you turn from the things that are temporary that do not glorify God and search for the things that are Eternal that glorify God. When I asked Jesus to forgive me, it has nothing to do with my salvation, but I ask in remembrance and honor of what He did for me on the cross of calvary!!!
The sinner's prayer doesn't save you, but only through the grace of God, through His Son Jesus Christ can save you!!! But turn away from your sins and come to God with open arms. And God will have mercy on you.
@@kennethray3653 and who are you to judge him? That he's not a born again Christian lol..... God knows he's true intention/heart stop spreading gossips.
@@ellona3645
Rick Warren is for the New World Order!!!
If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your HEART that God raised Him from the dead. You shall be saved!!!
1 John 3:23-24 (KJV) And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
1 John 4:19-21 (KJV) We love him, because he first loved us.
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
Rick Warren did not put his full trust in Jesus Christ on the finish work on the cross of calvary!!! Once saved always saved!!! Rick Warren did not come to True repentance. You have to put your full Trust in Jesus Christ. Rick Warren turned his head and looked back!!! I'm not saying that Rick Warren will never become a born-again Christian. I hope he is a whosoever!!! Whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life!!!
Put your full trust in Jesus Christ on the finish work that He did on the cross of Calvary, paid the admission of your sins past, present, future, and believe in your HEART that God raised Him from the Dead. You shall be SAVED!!! By faith alone, through grace alone, in Christ alone!!! Hallelujah!!!
It's not about us, it's about Him in what He did for us!!! I hope Rick Warren opens his eyes before he is Left Behind, just like everyone else needs to open their eyes before they are left behind. Be whosoever!!! Repent by turning away from your sin and come to God with open arms, and God will show you grace and mercy!!!
Are you a whosoever?
God bless!!!😃😃😃

That’s why I don’t believe in god...or jesus
The bible is changing all the time
@@Michael-uv6cn
If anything, that should actually give you MORE reason to BELIEVE in God/Jesus.
Germany and Russia are proof of what happens when a society changes too much.
Pierce....the Bible does not promote stoning to death of sinners. This is the problem when someone only reads 1 line of the Bible and thinks they know what the whole Book is about. How can a person watch 5 seconds of a movie, and expect to know what the theme of the movie is about? Ludicrous...
wonphi highly agree. many people take the bible out of context. meanwhile when against it they stand firmly in mid air. no foundation
wonphi they don't want to understand, if they understand the entire bible it would make them deal with themselves and repent.
+Sean Cherry Stoning is a form of punishment in the Torah: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoning#Torah
Where in the Torah is it written that God says you shall stone people?
+joe mcgraw en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoning#Torah
Is this called an "interview" when the interviewer is speaking much more than Rick Warren??
youngmin park 😂😂😂😂
He also failed to mention that the stoning was Old Testament before Christ died for our sins. He didn't even allow Pastor Warren to address that statement he threw out.
This interview felt as if Piers was "out to get him", like he was ready to pounce on him, bait him and catch him at a wrong statement. This felt similar to how the Pharisees back then would ask Jesus a theoretical question and then try to trap him into saying something wrong. But I commend Pastor Rick for staying cool and yet not standing down. He stayed his ground and defended his belief, not being swayed by the host's domineering attitude and just clearly stated his position. God bless you, Pastor Rick! I'm a Catholic and I appreciate your strong yet respectful conviction!
Because this Rick is a fake preacher that's why...
Watch John MacArthur on Larry King shows and you will see how a real preacher function with the authority of God
cnn always does that... that is their mo
I love how the Christians in the audience were bold to support Rick Warren
They are supposed to be bold to support JESUS CHRIST ONLY!!!
@@oceanbay3690
And so Night101 was backing Rick as he is representing Christ.
I'm just saying .... that boldness IS in support of Jesus.
(In case you were indicating otherwise; it's not quite clear)

@@Julie-kb3mo It’s your right, but you've been warned.

The liar won't get any support from me.
@@steenystuff1075 What did he say that was a lie? He just said the truth which is what the bible says
@@twilightsparkle5015
The Bible is bs. It also advocates for slavery; children being kîlled; women being r’d and forced to marry their rpist and is against not eating shrimp; tattoos; clothing made from more than one linen among other Bronze Age laws.
@@MMAGamblingTips Yeah but we don't have to follow those laws anymore
@@twilightsparkle5015
Lol why? Cause “that was the Old Testament” and we’re under a new covenant?
1. If god is perfect then why did he need two books?
2. In the New Testament it says to “obey all the laws of the OT and not let a single jot be changed” “For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.” -Matthew 5:18
Rick probably did one of the best Jobs here. He didn't compromise, but he said it with gentleness and respect. I've seen so many pastors compromise, it's sad. He is one I have more hope in, Great job Rick!!!
Compromise is sad now huh? I’d hate to be your partner

its nessa lmao u scared pussy bitch
@@kingofhearts804 we ought to be scared in committing sins before God. It means we fear him and honor His love and holiness!
Rick Warren is right I fear God more then the disapproval of man or society. Amen to that !!!
tanya aminov You should do what's right not what you're told. If there's no harm done in homosexuality I don't see why not. It might be your god the wrong one here. Moral people should fight for what we consider moral and just. We can't confuse religious dogmatism with real morality, and therefore we can't afford to divorce morality from human suffering. Cause if we do, we'll never know whether we're dealing with a good god or with an evil one. Therefore obeying blindly to a deity is not a sign of real morality. It's only a sign of blind and mindless stupidity.
+Ciro Galli My GOD is not a evil GOD and HIS Holy Word is the law! With GOD HIS way is the only way and we cannot change HIS Word and if you do then you will be punished. Read Revelation!!!!
How can you know that? How can you know how good or evil your god is? And how could you tell a good god from an evil one if he's gonna come along and start dictating morality and expect you to abide by it regardless or burn you forever? How can you know you're not following an evil god if all you're gonna do is obey him blindly? That's why I think that complete obedience to a god just to avoid punishment is not real morality. Morality cannot happen when sheep-minded people obey a god that put himself in that position of power. That's what I refer to as: religious dogmatism. You can't divorce real morality from the wellbeing of real people and to religion, the alleviation of human suffering ranks very low. Again: blindly obeying a god that put himself in a position of power without being elected, or being punished if not, is NOT morality. Morality cannot have anything to do with blind obedience to avoid punishment but with the maximization of wellbeing and minimization of suffering.
Friend can I ask you who is your god? My GOD is the only True GOD! HE made the earth, the heavens, the stars, the planets, HE put everything here on this earth and HE made man in HIS own image and then took a rib from Adam and made women, Eve. The GOD I worship also sent HIS SON JESUS CHRIST to earth to die for our sins and yes even your sins. JESUS became the Sacrificial LAMB for our filthy sins and through HIS death and then rising up from the grave three days later where HE defeated death and sin, JESUS provided us all, even you a way to never go to that place that was prepared for satan and his demons/evil spirits. GOD does not want you or anyone to go there and that was why HE offered HIS SON as The Sacrificial LAMB. All a person needs to do is call upon JESUS and admit you are a sinner and have sinned against GOD and ask HIM to forgive you of those sins and ask JESUS to come into your heart and live. Then believe JESUS died on The Cross and shed HIS blood for your sins and arose from the Grave three days later. Do and believe this and your name will be written down in the LAMBS Book Of Life forever and you will never go to that place called hell. Also GOD will not force you to worship HIM, HE commands you to do this and obey HIS Commandments. However GOD will allow you to do as you choose as HE already sent HIS SON to die for your sins. That includes JESUS CHRIST. JESUS will not force you to come to HIM nor will HE force you to believe in HIM. HE already suffered and died for you. You must make up your mind as to what you want to do. I say this, you would be better off believing GOD is real and JESUS did all these things for you and be forgiven of your sins and dying or being Raptured out and going to Heaven, than dying or being left behind with satan and his followers and then finding out you were wrong or listened to the wrong people and now your time spent in eternity will be in the Hell Fires forever and forever! I hope you will reconsider your thinking before it I too late. Read GODS Word and you will see that back in the Old Testament and New Testament many things were predicted would happen before JESUS returned for HIS Bride, The Church. Look at many things that have already happened. JESUS said in the last days there would be earthquakes in diverse places and if you have heard the news you see there are earthquakes happening around the world everyday and there were 54 of these in one day and many were in areas that had never ever had a earthquake. HE said there would be wars and rumors of wars, famine and pestilence and all of these are now happening all over the world. I could go on with other things but just wanted to point these out too you. You can see more if you will study GODS Word. The Jews do not believe JESUS is their MASIAH, but a real old Rabbi said a few weeks back that JESUS was coming soon and a date was 12 Sept 15. Who knows what day or time, only The FATHER knows. That is why you must be saved and ready as JESUS could come at anytime. Look at what the powers to be are saying is going to happen on several days in September. Look at the Stock Market? I hope you will seek The ONE who gave HIS life freely for you before it is too late! Take care and have a wonderful day!
Standing Bear I didn't ask what do you think your god is like? I know you think you know. But how do you know there is such a god? How can you know there is such a god as the one you're describing or that he's your god? How do you know your god exactly like you're describing him and that's not just the way he's pretending to be (if he exists, that is)? Believers think that just by defining their god as good and moral that's the god that exists. But it doesn't work like that. You can define your god the way you want. But that doesn't make him true or worth obeying. My question was more like: if there was a god, how could you know he's moral and not simply claiming to be moral? How can you tell a moral god from an evil god? Morality is not such simply because there's someone claiming to be a god and a moral one. What standard of morality do you use in order to get to the conclusion that your god is a moral one and not an immoral one? What standard of morality do you use to determine the Bible is a moral book and not an immoral one?
There is never going to be a middle ground on this subject.
ICE WALL amen
There is a ground but lgbt dont accept it. They recognize it as right but dont want to accept it
No there will never be. Because anyone who says they don’t condone or approve of someone’s sexuality is essentially saying their love isn’t authentic. Why is a straight love authentic but my love for a man isn’t? There will never be a middle ground
J Elliott I have to disagree with your “sin leads to hell” philosophy, and here’s why.
The Bible says that anyone who has believed ON Jesus for salvation does not come under judgement but has passed from death on to life. And that God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son that whoever believe in Him shall NOT PERISH but have everlasting life! It doesn’t get any simpler than that folks, which is why the Bible tells us not to forget the simplicity we have in Christ. Nobody seems to understand what true repentance is, the repentance unto salvation. It is not a turning from sin, it is a change of mind from trusting in our works to trusting 100% in Christ for our salvation! Sad news is most so called Christians haven’t repented, therefore they haven’t received Christ’s imputed righteousness, they still remain under the law, in which no flesh shall be justified. That’s why the people who came to heaven boasting about their works didn’t get in, because they hadn’t fully trusted in Jesus, therefore were lawless, because their own righteousness is as filthy rags. If you have never believed this, you haven’t been saved. If you once believed this, but no longer do, you are being deceived. There is a HUGE difference between the punishment for sins and hell. Got chastens His children, He doesn’t burn them. But those who believe that simply placing your trust in Christ isn’t enough, then they are condemning themselves because none of us can live up to the law.
Brandon Gray I don’t know what to tell ya man, I really don’t. :( I struggle with same sex attraction too. But I am also a Christian. Deep down I feel like somewhere along the line, people got the teachings wrong, but I will never know for sure, so I, as well as many other Christians are afraid to step out of the lines of what we have been taught, in fear of corrupting God’s word. Because IF the traditional teaching/ understanding is true, and I choose to believe otherwise, I corrupt God’s word by saying that two men loving each other is equal to a man and woman loving each other. It seems very confusing to me, but I’m not God. The only advice I can give you is to put all your trust in Christ, because in the end, your faith is going to save you, no matter how bad you’ve been. Jesus doesn’t forsake His children. But He does chasten those who make their lives into constant sin. Ask God about it, but be prepared for the answer. And be sure you know the answer is from God, and whatever He tells you, that will be your answer. :) Peace, and good luck! God loves you, no matter how broken, sinful, or depressed you may be. We are all broken in God’s eyes.
"I fear the disapproval of God more than I fear the disapproval of society". That was the best response from a preacher or Pastor that I have ever heard in my entire life!!! ..Bravo Rick Warren!! Bravo!!!

I will say from experience that Rick Warren and his church members are the most gracious, accepting people you would ever want to meet.
They will not beat you over the head with their Bibles. They will not give you lip service. They see everyone as a person God created and loves.
I worked behind the scenes for three years. This is where you’d see the flaws. I have no such story to tell.
I have had to move away from the area.
I miss them and will always be grateful for the pleasure of worshiping and working alongside them in the community.
I like this comment a lot!!
Hello Gail and how are you doing?
Lol
I fear God more than I fear you.
Except why would anyone actually fear something that they love? They would not, as it would make no sense.
The word fear means respect.
And I fear scorpions more than I fear Piers Morgan. That does not mean I respect scorpions. The word fear does NOT mean respect. It means fear.
Believers correlate fear of God with reverence, respect towards God.
Sort of like how you "respect" the mafia boss who might break your legs if you don't pay up on your gambling debts, huh?
Except of course with the mafia boss, at least you can die and escape him. With God, death is where the real fun begins, isn't it?
"Eventually I'll beat you down." Piers reveals his true goal.
Satan's speaking through him.
Yes. I am saddened when he said this. So this interview wasn't meant just to let Pastor Rick state his opinion on same sex marriage, it was meant to trap him and beat him. Pierce was so unprofessional in this interview. He kept interrupting his guest and viciously disrespecting the Bible.
He's wicked but our God of Israel is mightiest in ALL battles.
His last statement was very strong. "I fear the disapproval of GOD more than your disapproval and the society". I echo and resonate that too. Pierce is worldly man even composing himself as an atheist. We need to pray for him.
Yes we do amen
This man supports homosexuals what part of that do you not understand is just as bad as a sin as their obominstions before A Holy God! Go read Romans 1:1-32
He doesn’t fear God he clearly supports what God hates ! Wake up this man is a woulf

None of those comebacks are really comebacks, just the things Christians say when they can't validly defend their point...
@@Gigi-vq5ft also things that non-Christians can't wrap their heads around with. Exactly how the Pharisees viewed Jesus. They found Christ's answers to their questions and criticisms weak, baseless, and (even) blasphemous.
As believers of Christ, we believe and trust in His words. But this doesn't mean that we are pure and holy. Everyday we still ask for His mercy and love. And in return, even though we have stumbled a lot of times, His grace is (always) there, ready to lift us up. We respect and love our brethren, may they be straight or part of the LGBTQ community. As Christians, our mission is to spread the gospel, and pray for those who haven't been Christ-bound. :)
that last sentence ended the whole debate: Woah exactly Gods word over power all.
God and the Holy Bible do NOT change. Sin is sin and can NOT be refined by ANY man!
The bible has changed a lot over the years. Do some research. Find out what the codex sinaiticus is.
Under the definition we all understand the Bible has not changed. Supreme Court Chief Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes said it best when he answered a legal question posed before the court concerning whether or not the Constitution is a "living document" and changes with language or word definitions. He said (I've always been sorry that I lost the direct quote) The meaning of a document, whether it be a book, a law, or a dictionary definition, remains the same today as it did when that book, law, word usage or definition was written. In other words, the Constitution and the Bible is not a "living document" which changes every time some social or political group decides to change the usage or definition of a word.
David J Mark Twain said Its easier to fool people than to convince them they have been fooled. The bible has evidence all over it that it is not from God. I just gave you one example - God does not approve of sex slavery and yet Abraham, David and Solomon had them. They were called Concubines.
Yes, they had them, and God called it sin, and they were judged for it.
David J Nope, you don't even know your own bible.
Why’s piers almost “bullying” and pressuring him to change his answer or how he feels?
That response at the end! Literally just turned myself back to the Lord
Amen! 🙏
Amen
I agree with the pastor, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
A quick review of A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens:
1. Greater love has no one than to lay down his life for a friend.
2. Being possessive is not love.
3. Love is not sex.
4. You can't always get what you want.
Ain’t 4 true
" i fear the disapproval of god more than your disapproval or disapproval of anybody".. that's how we christians should all be in this politically correct secular society...

@@MJ-nx6vj a clear conscience knows intuitively how offensive homosexuality really is.
@Tom Foolery You're never barely Christian. Either God has saved you through Christ, fully and completely, or not at all. It is not dependent on our works of righreousness, but on Christ's work at the cross, and our belief in Him.
The exact thought process of modern society: "I'll keep coming back at it, until I beat you down."
And, unfortunately, the Church keeps going along with it...
This guy earned my respect. Well done!!!
Thanks Rick for upholding what's right and pleases only God, not men. Good courage.

Pierce didn't allow Rick to explain the Leviticus verse. What sort of fair game interview is this.
He just said what he wanted to say and cut his guest's response off. As he said himself, his goal for this interview was to "beat him".
It's not about gay or hetero it's about lust for flesh..
All sinned Christ died for all .
Walk by sprit.
@Ace Perry not according to God's Word, read Romans 1:27, this verse alone makes it very clear how God feels toward acts of homosexuality.
girl in red bebs Belief and repentance is necessary. True belief leads to repentance which is a turning away from your sin. Saying you believe and continuing to live unchanged is lip service. It is not a change of heart. You cannot play God for a chump.
Mat 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord!' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Mat 7:22 On that day many will say to Me, 'Lord, Lord, didn't we prophesy in Your name, drive out demons in Your name, and do many miracles in Your name?'
Mat 7:23 Then I will announce to them, 'I never knew you! Depart from Me, you lawbreakers!'
im a ex gay, my thoughts and feelings for men left immediately when i had a spirit cast out of me. Homosexuality in history has been tied to spirituality for a reason.
Give me a fucking break.
born gay doesn't seem logical....but having the hormones & chromosomes in place, prior to birth, to develop into homosexuality as a person grows, is more like it. so it's not that people are born" gay, but they are naturally gay. Homosexuality is a part of nature, heterosexuals are not born with an attraction to the opposite sex, heterosexuals don't choose not to be gay, *they simply don't have that attraction*, even though participation is a choice, the attraction to homosexuality for gays is not a choice, u do realize that right ?
***** You're delightful. Insane, of course, but delightful nonetheless.
***** And "had a spirit cast out of me" is not delusional? Wow. Ok.
spirit = delusion for some of us...but ok....believe what you want i'm just making sure other people aren't confused about homosexuality being a Goddamn made up spirit....thats aint how it works for real homosexuals
I love how the people at the end clapped! It felt like they were in church haha. Amen Pastor Rick Warren!
I wonder how Piers must have felt when the audience applauded Pastor Rick's last statement. He intended to "beat him" (his own words), but based on the audience's reactions, he had his serving of humble pie.
Rick Warren just earned great respect from me

Wow. Rick Warren does a pretty good job here. The man takes an awful lot of slack for being a compromiser, but he stands his ground where it counts.
He wasn't playing when he said eventually I'll beat you down....the plan of many is to drill continuously until they force you to doubt your core belief...but that has always been the plan of the enemy of God. Stay strong in the Lord people. We win!
Marriage is between one woman and one man so simple.
Karen S exactly biology obviously agrees.
Marriage is between one man and one woman, one man and another man and one woman and another woman.
official moderator marriage is defined by God, not man.
Marriage is a custom, all customs develop within human cultures, they are products of human behavior and human thinking. No one claims there is anything supernatural involved in marriage except those who want to define it according to their own petty prejudices and ideological agendas.
Karen S
Amen!!!
Rick Warren seems like a homosexual himself. No wonder he doesnt condemn them like the scriptures do
Charlie Parker You are an insult to the real Charlie (Bird Man) Parker!
Charlie Parker LMFAO!!! You're accusations of other people being queer seem to say something about yourself! Just because we don't agree with gay marriage doesn't mean we are "in the closet"!!
Yawn. He's a so called man of God yet holds back on the truth to avoid criticism. A deceiver
Yawn, god doesn't exist. All men are men of men, and that is all they are men of.
Charlie Parker. In the climate we live in today, we need the be wise. God calls us to be wise in a corrupt world.
The Bible doesn’t say that if you look at a person lustfully you should be stoned...Jesus said that to lust after someone mentally is just like committing adultery. And the context was to help us understand that Gods standard of morality is not just external, law-abiding mortality. We have all sinned and must repent of self-righteousness. SO people who criticize the Bible should actually read it rather than presume they know what is in it! I challenge all who see Christianity as boring, anachronistic and stupid to READ WHAT CHRIST SAID. You will be blown away by the humility of Jesus, by His awesome love and the fact that God came as Him to reach out to broken, fragile humans. Read it Pierce. Read it.
The Bible never says someone should be stoned for death for looking lustfully. That is nonsense, Piers.
Here is the passage from Matthew 5 with Jesus preaching: “You have heard that it was said, you shall not commit adultery. But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” In no part of that does Jesus mention stoning or condemning people in any way who lust.
Piers loves to make completely inflated points without allowing his opponent to contribute, e.g. Old Testament laws which are not appropriate to the Church Age. Why is he making theological points when he has no training in scriptures? That's like getting a mathematician to do a talk on marine biology.
OT (and NT) laws also support polygamy too, unless you're an Elder (1 Tim 3:2, Exodus 21:10). Regardless, all Bible Literalists are hypocrites, cherry picking the Scriptures....it doesn't necessarily matter their level of "training".
@@j.n.3577 Absurd universal statement and assumption. Not one verse in the Bible encourages polygamy. If you've studied the Bible (which I'm supposing you have, in which case you know you're not entirely being honest), you know that the Bible goes to great lengths to display the intensity of problems with polygamy and the importance of monogamous marriage between one man and one woman.
God's way, not yours. There are consequences in breaking God's laws. (Australia)
Just like there are consequences for breaking a tyrants laws.

He is so incredible. Whether you or I agree with him or not, he is faithful to his love of God but maintains grace and respect and love for everyone. Now that is Christianity at its finest. He inspires me so much!
I heard someone say something that makes sense, he said, "You're free to have and speak your own opinions, but you are NOT free, to create your own facts in your heads, and distribute them as the truth!" The only truth that I recognize is the Word of God, everything else is a mere opinion!

If he feared the disapproval of God then he would not persecute Gays.Angels are all Male and they cannot be tempted into Sin by any woman so if Angels are all Gay then God obviously Loves Gays.However he does hate feminist women.
Oh my god I am not talking about this "changing the meaning" shit with any more people. People change the meanings of words all the time, and marriage is not a Christian word.
People change the meanings of words to match their preferences. If you change the meaning of "alive" and "to live" to something of a less concrete meaning, the laws against murder would be pretty much meaningless.
You said marriage is not a Christian word. I beg to differ. If you go to blueletterbible.org and enter marriage in the search box you will find that the word marriage occurs:
19 times in the KJV,
17 times in the NKJV,
35 times in the NLT,
43 times in the NIV,
27 times in the ESV,
28 times in the HCSB,
27 times in the NASB,
30 times in the NET,
41 times in the RSV,
22 times in the ASV,
27 times in the YLT,
13 times in the DBY,
19 times in the WEB, and
21 times in the HNV.
Marriage in this sense is "gamos" in the Greek. It is, specifically, a wedding, or to marry is "ekgamizo", which is "given in marriage".
+David J - "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean-neither more nor less." "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things." "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master-that's all."
If you're going to rely on Humpty Dumpty, then I'd say you're right. You can define words, contexts, and language to mean anything you want it to mean. After all, you are writing the parameters of reality in your own little world. It's fantasy and animated fiction. You're in a cartoon dimension and therefore it really doesn't matter.
We are in reality. The words we use define that reality. You can't use a word in 1792, and then allow me to use the same word in 2016 without the accepted understanding down through the ages that the word in question will remain the same. If not, there is no common ground, no communication. There must be a referential standard in all applications of a word and its context, or there is no standard by which to establish understanding, and no communication.
when you marry fittings on a hose / pipe its male and female..or it just isn't married! linked
+David J - "Give us this day our daily bread...". Does this refer only to bread? No - the prayer implies the food we eat. This hasn't created a breakdown in communication. We often expand the meaning of words. And meanings can change based on context. Of course we can use a word in 1792 and then use the same word in 2016 with a different meaning. Usually the meaning expands to be more inclusive. But sometimes the meaning itself changes. Language is constantly evolving. It's anything but fixed!
"I FEAR THE DISAPPROVAL OF GOD MORE THAN I FEAR YOUR DISAPPROVAL OR THE DISAPPROVAL OF SOCIETY"
Pastor Rick Warren 🙌
I’ve never seen a pastor speak the truth about homosexuality on a television interview. Bravo Rick Warren🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Listen to Dr. Voddie Baucham
Pier Morgan is far too narrow minded to have his own talk show
Youre a white guy and your feet stink !
Unnatural sexual behavior should not be promoted by Hollywood, the news media, the music industry or the state.
Well... define unnatural... in fact, most television shows in America don't promote for any act of sex on the T.V, or it's rated R.
Li Yuri
You know what I mean. Just like the Hollywood stooge in this video always using the gotcha mentality by always regurgitating the unnatural sex behavior agenda when interviewing a christian leader trying to make them look like a dumb ass when the true dumb ass is Piers Morgan. He thinks he's got everyone snowed. lol. The mold always sits on the top when something gets spoiled.
Well in Warrens defense he handled it just fine. Things as tabboo as sexuality (though I don't think it should be) religion and politics probably shouldn't be handled like this either. I also didn't think the interviewer was trying to make him a fool
Li Yuri
It is only because Warren is smarter than Morgan. Look at Morgans interview with Kirk Cameron. Then look at his interview with Lewis Black about kirks interview the next night. Piers the muddavugger lied about kirk and said he said he said he hated them; he did not say he hated anyone. Or, the interview that Solidad Obrien did on Joel Osteen. Joel Osteen the Jesus of Christianity. It looked like Jesus was put before the Sanhedron again 2000 yrs ago in 2014 man.
muddavugger I wouldn't know, so I won't argue. I know some interviewers are very... opinionated and very disrespectful about it. I tend not to watch them on my free time unless I'm in the mood to chew something out though.
Pierce Morgan has always loved to hear his own voice. I would have like to hear Rick Warren speak more
I wouldn't. Religious bullshit isn't my cup of tea.
I was a strident and outspoken critic of the gay lifestyle. I was at a church protesting a gay marriage and I began to pray, and the demon of judgement and ignorance came out of me fell on the floor. I felt the true presence of Jesus and began to more fully understand the true spirit Jesus.
God's Word will never change! Regardless as to whether you agree with it or not!!!!
He is the same yesterday, today and forever.....
And the Word of God is you're born that way... Also Angels and Apostles like Gays
Read Acts 8:26-39
I personally feel like too many people consider disapproval of homosexuality as "hatred, bigoted.." And such. I think there is hatred on both sides of the argument though. People cursing homosexuals and people cursing those who just don't happen to agree with it. I fall in to the category of disagreement. That doesn't mean I hate anybody. I know many homosexuals and they're good people. I say have your disagreements, that's fine. But stop being jerks.
Daniel Riding "Disapproval of homosexuality" is called homophobia. Even if a homophobic doesn't hate homosexuals, s/he's still capable of discriminating against them in his/her belief system, and the discrimination is wrong.
Daniel Riding Those who curse individuals or groups for their sins are hypocrites. We all sin. Even those of us who seek the Father through the Son continuously. We need to seek God to be made anew as we do not have power to heal ourselves without Him. The more we sin, the more darkness we live under. The more we come to love God through His Son, the more He will work through us through comfort, love, truth, and understanding. We become more compassionate to others as our eyes are open because we see the truth of our own blindness that causes us to sin. It is only by seeking a relationship with the Father through His Son, can we be made whole. He is calling us all....the more we sin, the more difficult it is to hear Him. But it only takes us picking up His Word and learning about His Son with our heart that we begin to heal.
RighteousRebel430 For some maybe, but hating sin includes hating all sin. Not hating sinners as we are all sinners!
paqueenb It's wrong to hate homosexuality, because there's nothing wrong with homosexuality. You don't have to believe that homosexuality is a sin, even if you're Christian.
RighteousRebel430 God the Father decides what is sin. Not you, not me. People that live in sin without a relationship with the Father through His Son, justify the lies they believe. No sin is acceptable and we all are guilty...every one of us are dirty rags. We all need the comfort and love of our precious Savior and His Father! It is only through Him that we can grow in His will, and be transformed. He loves us and wants us to spend time with Him!
The Bible never says if you look at someone lustfully you are to be stoned to death, this is the problem with critics who don’t know and don’t care for what the Bible really says only their own wants and desires and will twist the scriptures to boost their position
Respect, Pst Rick. Finally one who doesn't embarrass his God.
Loving the person is telling them that they're wrong. If you want to love them,tell them THE TRUTH. The reason sinners are going to hell is that we're not brave enough to tell them they're wrong.We don't want to. see any sinner go to hell,but we MUST SPEAK THE TRUTH IN LOVE.Let them make the choice as to whether they want to accept it or not.
Frederick Weeks Jr. you are absolutely right! I have two lesbian cousins and although l love them I’m not excepting their lifestyle so we are cordial but as a believer in Christ l don’t have anything in common with their lifestyles🤷🏿♀️
Homosexuality is not a choice nor lifestyle. If you honestly believe millions of people are taking their lives for something they can help, you're uneducated.
I pray to Lord God in heaven that any man or woman struggling with homosexuality reads this prayer with an honest heart receives salvation:
Heavenly father, forgive me, for I am a sinner. Please wash me clean and baptize me with your Spirit. Come into my heart and fill me. Take control of every part of my life. I give everything over to you. Thank you for sending your son Lord Jesus Christ die on the cross so that my sins may be forgiven. I repent of all of my sins known and unknown and I ask for your forgiveness. I want to follow you. Come into my life and fill me with you Spirit. I want to be your child. Please baptize me with your Spirit. Thank you. I love you. Amen!
God answered your prayer and has forgiven you for not minding your own business and leaving the homosexuals he created alone.
The fundamentalist mantra? I'm minding your business with my business in mind.
I'm not "struggling" with homosexuality so quit patronizing me and get on with your own life. I am struggling with self-righteous bigots that claim they "love" gay people then try to wave a magic wand to cure them. They want to "pray away the gay" and encourage gay folks to marry the opposite sex. These lies create mixed orientation marriages that spell disaster for the entire family. When will you blinded religious nuts find something productive to do instead of heading the PROTESTant movement against anything YOU find sinful. NONE of your reparitive therapy methods or praying has "cured" sexual orientation. I'm not writing this to "Faith" Guy....just to some poor unsuspecting person that might drink your kool aid. You can have your faith and accept and love yourself for the way you were created. There are plenty of open and affirming churches that will not create an unnecessary "struggle" and try to cast some demon out of you. These religious dinosaurs (what an oxymoron) are soon extint. Namaste.
Mexighetti If people were to pay attention to who is behind the keyboards based on the demonic viewpoints...itd just confirm the deception people like yourself are trying to put over Christians or those that want to follow the one true God. coming to a religious to talk atheist views, but people who call themselves believers will listen to you as knowing the way to salvation. Sad.
FaithGuy If gay people were to pay attention to who is behind the keyboards based on brain washing techniques…So deep in cult speak: demonic viewpoints, deception, "one" true God, "put over". LIsten to yourself. Unfortunate facts: Gay children born to fundamentalist like you and Rick Warren have and 8x greater chance of completing suicide. You can play all the semANTICS you want, the manipulation deserves to be challenged. Your ASSumptions that a gay person can't understand God is sickening.
Again, sorry you had been abused. 1 in 4 girls are abused and 1 in 6 boys. Sad for our own sex that mostly men are the perpetrators and the "straight" Jerry Sanduskies are deemed "gay". The stat game gets skewed. The perpetrators should face strong consequences…as healthy gays and straights I know would agree.
Gay and questioning folks. Before you listen to cultists and add to self-loathing contact P-FLAG, the Trevor Project, or Soul Force. These organizations will support your spiritual and mental health. Find an open and affirming church and stay away from the Westboro Baptist types like FaithGuy.
Mexighetti Who do you think christian people should listen to? ..One who is filled with God's spirit that has lived the lifestyle or an atheist/non believer? You are trying to tell people who are committing this act that they are "gay" and it is OK to fornicate?? You're a joke. I lived the life for over 15+ years there is NOTHING you can teach me about being in that lifestyle. (Sex parties, drugs, threesomes, alcohol, partners adding 3rd, super high HIV and STD rate that is way higher than is reported, lying, cheating, trying to convert "straight" guys, care free lifestyle. Your logic...(Fornicate and live your life...easy for you to say bc you have NO clue that God actually exist bc if you did you will be seeking his face and stop writing this junk) Don't get me wrong heterosexuality outside of marriage is equally as sinful along with everything else that I mentioned ab homosexuality.
I lived the lifestyle..in fact the day that I was delivered/saved was on my way home from a gay club on a friday night. So I was changed bc I said my salvation prayer...he was the only one I knew could save me...eventhough I havent prayed in a very long time..
The reason why many people give up is bc they are expecting something instant to happen.. everyone likes quick, easy, convenient...Christianity is the complete opposite. If people would realize that its tough, hard...all good things require work to get the reward. Nothing is just "handed" if this was the case...God would just transform a person in the same day. He does NOT..its a journey and every month.. day, week you see progress..
Just like you...the demon tried pushing this "gay" agenda/deception on me. When it doesn't exist from God's perspective..he does not follow man made rules..we follow his...hence the reason why you can not refute anything that I pointed out in earlier post and if you haven't realize it was all done with secular logic...Meaning anyone with the capacity to read and understand will see that when two men engage in same sex activity its homosexuality... (sexual attraction, physical attraction, feelings, thoughts. etc) DOES NOT CHANGE THIS FACT. B/c it is an act...and we have choice to do or not to do the action "as long as there are other options (same sex, opposite sex, no sex, animal sex) you are making a choice" If it is a choice one cant be "born" ( "gay, straight, bi, etc" )
I will share something w/u and all of the other people..there is a very old catholic prophecy...one of the 1st that I am aware of within Christianity to put this religion to the test.. Its called the "prophecy of malachi" We are in the endtimes and the last pope according to this prophecy...if it wasn't enough the spirit that lives in me confirm this... so why do you think its so interesting that the demonic spirit living in you want people to believe that God all of a sudden changed his mind and thinks that its ok to fornicate, lust. Even when the false prophet (francis) ok's homosexuality this doesn't make it right. No one should be deceived by you...using the suicide story..if you have verse in scripture you would know that is also forbidden within Christianity to commit such an act. If those people believers they wouldn't died in such a way.
Realize this isn't ab getting people to becoming "straight" this is ab these young boys and girls giving themselves to Jesus and him doing with them as he see fit..At the end of the day we must live in accordance to our conscience. Bc we are all born into sin..we will never know whats right or wrong until we born again with the spirit of Lord Jesus Christ.
FaithGuy You've turned this into a gay vs religion argument, and you're suggesting people should listen to you because you used to sleep with men, even though you are not gay, and because you are religious.
Be religious all you want, but stop preaching to others. It seems to me your beliefs are set, but it's not fair for you to keep going on about how wrong gay people are for making the choice to be gay. I've already said to you a few times that for the majority of men who sleep with men, their attraction isn't a choice, and trying to become straight, even if you believe that God will help, can cause people much harm. Gay kids kill themselves due to these pressures.
This man is a real christian. God bless you brother.
Christianity doesn't own Marriage. It did not invent marriage and Christianity has no right to comment on the rights of citizens based on their faith. Practice your faith freely. If it's against your faith to be gay, that's a personal thing for you to keep in mind. Has nothing to do with anyone else and how they live their life. In short: mind your own business.
You're right Christianity didn't invent marriage. God did.
GOD owns marriage, and GOD invented marriage. You should forward your complaints directly to HIM for review. By the way, it has everything to do with everyone else since "same-sex marriage" is being taught as equal to, and sometimes even more important than opposite sex marriage, which is still in fact, the norm. This is especially poignant, and troubling since pre-school children are being indoctrinated into accepting the gay rights agenda, and the "marriage equality" fallacy.
Alex Avery opinions don't make things so. Before you challenge anyone, find references to support your view, otherwise it has little credibility.
That was a badass reply from Rick Warren. Respect!!
Warren is a fraud. He started a new church called chrislom...there is nothing good about this man.
@@JFF35753 Amen brother. Very Sad to hear him on a Christian Radio along with many many more Sell Out's.
Most of The Christian people are Asleep.
I didn't know he named his church that.
I am appalled as a Christian that Pastors or men of God can't answer a simple question about homosexuality and marriage. I have watched Piers Morgan question several supposed Christian ministers or pastors, and not one can answer with an answer that supports the bible! Men stand on the word, and not be pressured with questions that God himself has already answered.
Karen Johnson LOL did you watch the video ? because this pastor clearly did
I like what he said in public - the disapproval of God cannot be afforded over anyone else's... Respect you Pastor
"I fear the disapproval of God more than I fear the disapproval of society." Amen. I am happy to hear Warren make that statement and stand his ground on the meaning of marriage. I don't like that Piers Morgan stated he will "beat him down." That is how the devil operates. Thus, Morgan showed the same intolerance he is accusing Christians of espousing.
It's harder for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle the Love of Money is the root up all kinds of wickedness
That must be why churches ask for so much of it.
He is clearly showing his hypocrisy. He said that marriage is the commitment between one man and one woman (presumably til death). Yet his church allows divorces and remarriage. In fact, most churches do. Where is "divorce" and "remarriage" mentioned in the "original definition of marriage"? Correct me if I'm wrong, but that vow of commitment til death to one person has just been contradicted.
Your perspective in this regard is wrong. What is relevant is that words have definitions. Those definitions cannot be changed at will.
JeffersonDinedAlone
Why not? We have been changing the definition of marriage, since the institution was invented. If you are so hung up on "original definitions, then you must believe marriage should ONLY be defined in these terms simply because it is one of the oldest definitions.
Marriage- "1 man or 1 woman chosen by your parents (or pre-arranaged) of the same race and religion for life with no possibility of divorce, regardless of whether or not they are violent." So unless you follow that definition and that definition only, don't preach to me about never changing definitions. Furthermore, why can't a word's definition ever be changed? What law or moral code is it breaking?
Jason Musser divorce is spoken about in the old testament and the new testament. Jesus himself spoke about marrige.
What u think is he going to do to those divorced people? Humilaite them? disrespect them o not allow them to enter the church? Come on!
The Bible only allows divorce in case of adultery, and remarriage to widows (and men who lost their wives). But some churches allow it in other situations, and I’m pretty sure he has an idea based on the Bible.
We don't stone people because Jesus fulfilled the law. He paid the price for sin. Very simple to understand if you actually read the Bible. This pastor stood his ground. God bless him
Equality does not mean that opposing views are each correct.
It simply means that each person is just as important and valuable as the other.
As people.
A person's stance on a particular subject never makes them less than or below another.
By the way ... the Bible is not an opinion or a perspective.
It is simply the Truth.
Choosing to deny the truth does not make something any less true.
What God has said will come to be WILL HAPPEN.
He has let us know the best choices to make in order to have peace and to avoid dire consequences.
The host is just as bad as those who violently protest gay marriage. Look at his body language when he said "eventually I'll beat you down". That's exactly Rick's point about tolerance.
He behaves just as those he disagrees with.
👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
Way to go, Rick.
Well spoken !
Truly with a heart for and of God.

Hello Julie and how are you doing?
Rick will change his view on homosexuality = guaranteed
Rick Warren, so eloquently spoken. Respectful, but stood his ground in a beautiful way. And stuck with The Bible and the Lord 100%.
I think I bought a couple of books from this Pastor Rick Warren and after this video I'm just going to go and throw them in the garbage where they belong
How in the HELL is accepting homosexuality EVOLUTION!?
HEYYYYYY BABY!!!!!!!!! It's been a LONG TIME!!!!!;) You NEVER answered MY questions!!! LOL! YOU made the claim that the Bible is the Word of God (then you tried to avoid discussing the topic after I set your ass straight).

Please read *1 Corinthians 7* the whole chapter and study it carefully
Gay don't have rights to marry that is simple is that how can produce baby from same sex it's nonsense
Rick thank you for talking about this subject, Of course this is just one of many, many topics we could talk about, but this is a hottish topic.
The most humblest straight forward answer from Rick Warren at the end!!! "Fearing God's disapproval more than Man's or societies."I'm not sure if people like Piers who stand for equality understand that the view from which believers in Christ stand by cannot be changed because it is not our Words or purposes or creation of life to change. The world is changing but God's love, words and promises remain the same.That doesn't mean that all things and examples spoken in the bible are commanded by God to do. Like his example of "throwing stones" as a means of punishment or condemnation. When Christ died for us which is written in the New Testament, He took our sins and eternal punishment, it is no longer about us having the ability to punish but God's character of mercy grace and unfailing love.Love does not mean letting sin corrupt Love's meaning! Sin seperates us from God and the bible clearly defines what is sin. Old Testament history is history to be observed and acknowledged, the Ten Commandements are still Commandements put in place by God and in the New Testament two commandments are placed in priority of all, "To love the Lord your God with all your heart mind and strength and to love your neighbor as yourself."Loving, again does not mean "changing" what God sees as of His design and purpose and not of his design and purpose. Amongst other sins, homosexuality and same sex marriage is not of God's design.
If the question of equality poses or demands respect, what can man say of respect for what God has created as His purpose for Man and Woman to be in union? Who's purposes are we questioning or acknowledging? Why is society fighting so hard for it's individual acknowledgement and justification of XYZ...and why is there no fight or passion to understand our creator and how we are designed to be? If we claim "love" is what moves us why are we choosing to be a society that is not moved by what love is on the Cross for us but rejects it? John 3:16-17Why have we ignorantly placed ourselves higher than our creator and loving Father God? Was I there at the creation of the universe...was I there when God laid the earths foundations? I didn't create myself, I am here because my parents met and I am here breathing and alive because of the love and grace of God.
Piers comments about the Bible's Old Testiment practice of condemnation for breaking the Law by stoning is that of the Old Testament. Christians wouldn't even think of that practice. He does not understand the important of distinction between Old Testament and what Jesus has done in the New Testament starting from Matthew. The statement that Pierce makes saying the Bible is too old for our modern world practices is only half observed. I think the reason why people may be confused about what to believe or practice in the Bible is because we are missing the Holy Spirit , the acceptance of Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior who brings the promise of a new life and the Promise of the Holy Spirit. How can a person fully say they understand the aspects of the bible without this very vital part of the Trinity who is responsible for correcting our thoughts and guiding us into all truth?
As a gay man, I wouldn't hate you because you disagree with me as long as you don't act like an asshole because of it. I respect you until you disrespect me.
The radical part of the LGBT that everyone sees definitely doesn't speak for all of us.
Rick messed up by not saying we are no longer under law of the old testament, but under grace through JESUS CHRIST who died for our sins.
"I fear the disapproval of God more than I fear your disapproval or society" Rick Warren nails it. Marriage isn't Warren's or Morgan's or society's invention to redefine it on whim. God defined it. That settles it! Whether one agrees with it or not is irrelevant.
The biblical definition of marriage is "many wives".
+Sweence Yes sometimes, God gave Jacob 4 wives. so yes sometimes it is Gods will to have more than one wife.
Sweence where pray tell did u fimd that
I’m a Christian, marriage is NOT our term! It’s older than Christianity. And I also fear the disapproval of god, that’s why I study to show myself approved. By studying to show myself approved, I’m 100% confident in the name of Jesus that I don’t support pederasty and that I do support the teachings of Christ.
Rick Warren is spot on. Hate the sin, love the sinner. Hating someone's drug abuse does not mean you hate the drug abuser. To the contrary, the more you love a person, the more you hate their drug abuse. The less you care about someone, the less you care about their drug abuse. It's the same with homosexual behaviour.
I agree with the statement, I fear the disapproval of God, before my disapproval of man.
You fear the disapproval of an imaginary being? How are you not hospitalized?

You see God's creation every day yet you conclude that there is no God? Why is that?
Romans 1:18-22 KJV
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; [19] Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. [20] For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: [21] Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. [22] Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
@@jesusisgod2953 Because I see constant bloodshed and hatred and injustice among humans; because I do not believe what some ignorant scribe may have written 2OOO yrs ago; because I'm not a fool like you, willing to believe anything.

It's those that reject God who end up believing anything. The religion of atheism, the religion that teaches nothing produces everything, non-life produces life, randomness produces fine-tuning, chaos produces information, unconsciousness produces consciousness, and non-reason produces reason. Oh yes, very convincing. Wet rocks+time+chance=human. Atheism is a heart condition. That is why God calls those that deny his existence fools without excuse. Only a fool would believe that the human body happened by chance. Denying intelligent design is not intelligent.
Without God you have no objective standard to judge anything as being morally good or evil. You are stealing from God in order to argue against him. A self-refuting standard. Since you reject God you are then left with subjective morality which is a standard that refutes itself. That is what you are left believing, that morality is made up by people. If morality is based on human opinion (which is what you are reduced to) then anyone can say, think and do anything they want and label it good. That is the absurdity of your position. You are being an illogical hypocrite by going against premise of subjective morality which is the very standard you hold to, and that is because you are without God. You are reduced to absurdity. I have other people to reached. You can either accept the Gospel and be saved or remain arrogant, puffed up in your own pride and continue in your blindness and condemnation believing in miracles without God. I will trust in the Lord.
@@jesusisgod2953 Atheism isn't a religion, first off.
Morality pre-dates religion. Without it, humankind would have extinguished itself long ago.
It is you who are puffed up with pride, believing yrself to be holy and saved above all others. You who claim you know all there is to know. You who know you are saved. Yr spiritual arrogance is laughable.
Also, you are evidently without education, as all the feeble points you raise on behalf of yr belief have been answered long ago.
Educate yrself.
Amen. Theres so many twisted people in the world right now. I can see people redifining the bible terms in their own way. But they dont know that the word of GOD is absolute. Thank you Pastor Rick. You’re the best!
I'm gay, bitch! We should be allowed to love who we want to love!
Piers...can you quote that made up verse? Was it in the book of Strawman?
Rick Warren handled that well 😇😇
God created marriage??? Hahahaaha. Marriage traditions existed way before any monotheistic religion.. lol
I had a right good laugh when Morgan called his guest a "great man".
. Rick Warren is a fucking joke. His odious views on this topic are not so funny though.
Not in the mind of creationists. Although, this guy doesn't sound like that kind bible thumper. He's only partially brainwashed.
ffhighwind Rick Warren is "partially brainwashed"? No, he's a detriment to the survival of our species, like most that are in his position and fame.
When people say God created marriage they don't mean he created it when a religion was created. It means god created it when he made the first two people on earth, Adam and Eve. The one thing that nonbelieving extremists like you have as a flaw, is you purposefully don't mention specific details to mislead people.
You want to try and prove that arbitrary assertion? If you're just going to assert something without evidence, then so will I.
God made marriage. Done. Your argument is destroyed.
I don’t think conservatives should dislike Pierce Morgan. The fact that he actually wants to open up conversations like this with intelectual opposites shows he’s better than those who are trying to censor and silence the right.
God bless Rick Warren.
I typically put it this way: #Do you
#Live and let live
But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!
I can't see any reason for a crisis.
