DOUG PAGITT SPEAKS...IN A KINDA, SORTA EMERGING CHURCH WAY...ON CARM PODCAST
In a move which is obviously hurting the cause of the neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church, for some reason, Doug Pagitt has been making the rounds of the Internet podcast and radio circuit. Earlier Apprising Ministries pointed you to Doug Pagitt of the Emerging Church on Way of the Master Radio.
Back on August 9th of 2007 I received a call from one of my Christian Research Network contributors; my good friend Chris Rosebrough, also of Extreme Theology and A Little Leaven. He told me he was in Las Vegas at the Madalay Bay Hotel and he had just spoken with Doug Pagitt on his cell phone while Pagitt was at the Denver Airport heading on to New Mexico.
Chris told me that during his conversation Doug Pagitt confidently and unblinkingly denied the vicarious penal substitutionary atonement. He also explained how Pagitt told him that he does not teach any doctrine at Solomon’s Porch, which is the emerging church where Pagitt is supposed to be pastor.
Rosebrough informed me that this lead to a very vigorous debate over the Biblical mandate given to pastors in that we – must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it (Titus 1:9) and what the Biblical word for doctrine (didaskalia) means.
Men and women, listening to the following program as Matt Slick asks Pagitt some very basic–and quite simple questions–it is becoming painfully clear that Pagitt, a leader in the the Emergent Church, has very little idea what the Christian faith actually is. Just wait until you hear what “pastor” Pagitt says salvation is.
