Can the
Church borrow the marketing tools of the world and apply them to the Church?
What is the history of the
Church Growth movement and its false premises?
Who is involved in the new evangelicalism and second reformation? Why are these movements embracing contemplative mysticism? How does this movement play into the
New World Order? These questions and more are answered in Church of Tares:
Purpose Driven, Seeker-Sensitive,
Church Growth & New World Order.
Church of Tares chronicles the man-centered pragmatism of these evangelical
Christian movements in comparison to the
Bible's instruction for building the
Church of Jesus Christ. As a sequel to
The Real Roots of the
Emergent Church, Church of Tares documents the connections between the liberal Emergent Church movement and the Church Growth movement. Both movements' leadership were discipled by business management guru
Peter Drucker, who was attracted to the megachurch movement as a social phenomenon that could bring about his "new society" and New World Order. Megacurch pastors
Rick Warren and
Bill Hybels as well as
Leadership Network founder
Bob Buford all acknowledge Drucker (who professed not to be a
Christian) as their mentor and have built their organizations upon his secular business management philosophies rather than the foundation of
Jesus Christ.
The fruit of these movements is great compromise of the
Gospel and the
Great Commission. Rick Warren claims to be ushering in a new spiritual awakening and second reformation with his
P.E.A.C.E.
Plan. But this reform appears to be a social reformation rather than a spiritual one by joining together in ministry with unbelievers to fight global giants. Such compromise has led to the affirming response letter to the
Common Word document which declares
Muhammad to be a prophet and the Bible and Qur'an to be of the "same
Divine origin."
