I know that Rick Warren has a theological degree above me, but his opinions are rather....lame.
Take a hold of this!!
Take a hold of this!!
Warren, a Southern Baptist, keyed in on the essentials of salvation -- a personal acceptance of Jesus Christ. He told the tweeter,
I do believe that. And I believe that because Jesus said it... Jesus said 'I am the way.'.. I'm betting my life that Jesus wasn't a liar."
Warren explained that God's grace is the only ticket, that our works on earth cannot earn heavenly passage, although, he joked,
Most of us want to have enough.. good works to get into heaven, but enough bad works to be fun.
Bottom line, says Warren,
I'm not getting to heaven on my integrity. I'm not getting to heaven on my goodness. I'm getting to heaven on what I believe Jesus said is grace...
That's evangelical gospel. But where Warren goes next may not be. Tapper relays a Facebook question: Do dogs go to heaven?
Said Warren,
Absolutely yes. I can't imagine God not allowing my dog into heaven.
Cats, too, Warren added. "Why not."
