Although I appreciate Ravi's dedication to apologetics and defense of the faith, since last year, there have been some troublesome things that have come across my path regarding his ministry, his affiliations and his usage of references in his devotionals from lest than Christian sources.
While it will be said that no one is perfect, teachers are also held to a higher standard, especially when they hold sway over multitudes of peoples.
This past Sunday, while listening to "Christian" radio, Ravi's radio program came on. During his talk, he referenced "Dallas Willard" and how he was such a great man of god, and he also mentioned someone else which escapes my memory. Needless to say, my spirit was sorely grieved as this is now another coal to heap on the fire.
In past sermons he has expressed his high praise for Eugene Peterson and his perversion, the so-called "the message" bible.
In case you do not knowwho Dallas Willard is, you can read about him here.

I tell you all, I am sick to my stomach and even more sick of what is becoming of the faith once delivered to the saints, but God is true and what He has determined shall come to pass, there is a remnant and there will always be a remnant, let's all pray that we will remain in the Lord's camp. :faint
