<p>In an article entitled <span style="text-decoration: underline;">'Pastor of California Church sponsoring interfaith dialogue with Wiccans teaches tolerance to "concerned citizen": Wiccans covered by God's grace'</span> We can see one of the most perverse displays of wolves raiding the sheepfold while the Pastor of the flock looks on approvingly...denying the Exclusive power of Messiah to save.<br/><br/><strong>"Besides being a grossly misunderstood religion–Wiccans and Pagans are often characterized as Satan worshippers who sacrifice animals even though there is no Satan in the Wiccan faith–and animals are considered to be as sacred as humans–the truth is Wiccans believe Satan to be a human created Christian construct and thus, not a part of their religion." </strong><br/><br/><a href="http://www.goddiscussion.com/110177/pastor-of-california-church-sponsoring-interfaith-dialogue-with-wiccans-teaches-tolerance-to-concerned-citizen-wiccans-covered-by-gods-grace/" target="_blank">http://www.goddiscussion.com/110177/pastor-of-california-church-sponsoring-interfaith-dialogue-with-wiccans-teaches-tolerance-to-concerned-citizen-wiccans-covered-by-gods-grace/</a><br/><br/>While it might be true that "Wicca" is not well understood by the public, it is an absolute falacy to say that this religion does not worship Satan and demonic entities. Though their deities might not be viewed by the practitioners of Wicca as any such evil spirits, those belief based perceptions can not change the nature of what they actually are.<br/><br/>It is also falacious to say that Wicca does not practice animal sacrifice. Though there might be modern groups who do not participate in those things, traditionally, not only is Witchcraft a sacrifice based religion but it never stopped at animal sacrifice, either...human sacrifice was a requirement for the major Sabbats, a fact which is desperately buried, obfuscated and denied by neo Wiccans and "religious tolerance" advocates alike.<br/><br/>Now we have "christian" churches welcoming this brutal, demonic belief system into a fellowship of tolerance.

It is more than a little upsetting to see such a prosperity message being taught to so called Christians in America. if such a thing was a measure of blessing then we could easily call the wealthy elite blessed. perhaps before long they will know the meaning of persecution and they will either fail to remain faithful because they will see this as a sign that they are not blessed any longer or they will finally awake to realize that the truly blessed do face persecutions.<br />

If these very wealthy churches did what was right would they not surely send aid to those believers around the world who really are giving their lives for the sake of the gospel?

In addition to all that you have said, I would add that many of today's Christians truly believe they are suffering persecution for their faith. And yet what faith? And, in what? Our mega churches are being funded by members with mega-$$s who believe their material lifestyle demonstrates God's blessings for their righteousness.<br />
<br />

It is wrong to suggest that any "suffering" that we Americans may do today resembles in any way, shape or form the suffering of believers in Jesus' time, or currently in other parts of the world. There is no comparison.<br />

I wonder if we will see the return of burning of "heretics".
