Paul In The 21st Century

How would the postmodern evangelical church of the 21st century respond to the Epistle of Paul to the Galatian church today?

Here's a satirical look from 'Sacred Sandwich'...

IF PAUL'S EPISTLE TO THE GALATIONS WERE PUBLISHED IN CHRISTIANITY TODAY
(letters to the editor)

Something to think about when there is so much emphasis today on the emerging church methods that teach more about loving everyone to heaven and being tolerant (acceptant) of every new idea that comes along. America needs the the Gospel today just as much as the world did 2000 yrs ago.

Moral to this satire: Preach the Word and let God do the converting.

"I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned! As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned! Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ." ~ Paul to the Galatians (Galatians 1: 6-10)
