John Macarthur's Ministry Partners with a
Member of the World Council of Churches
http://www.thewatchmanwakes.com/John-Macarthur-TMAI-Mexico-WCC.html
John Macarthur's
international ministry is called The Masters Academy International (TMAI). The
TMAI Mexico center is called Word of Grace Biblical Seminary. If one goes to
the TMAI Mexico webpage then
one will see that a pastors’ conference in El Salvador is highlighted. On Sept.
6-7, 2007, Word of Grace Biblical Seminary led a conference in El Salvador
called Basics of Leadership (This conference has also been called “Basics of
Biblical Leadership” and “Leadership Basics”). According to the TMAI website,
“This conference was organized by the Baptist Association of El Salvador and
the Word of Grace Biblical Seminary…” This means that TMAI Mexico was working
in partnership or in cooperation with the Baptist Association of El Salvador.
Why is this noteworthy?
The Baptist
Association of El Salvador is not only a member of the Baptist World Alliance,
a UN-NGO, but it is also a member of the World Council of Churches (WCC). The
Baptist Association of El Salvador’s WCC membership can be seen here.
In 1993, Joseph
A. Harriss wrote an article, “The Gospel According to Marx.”
Within this article, Rachel Tingle, Director of London’s Christian Studies
Centre, states regarding the WCC: “The council has jettisoned traditional
Christian missionary activity and substituted political action designed to
establish a new kind of world order.”
According to
another article titled, Baptists and Liberation Theology, “In 1975, the Baptist
Association of El Salvador founded a theological school in Santa Ana…which
created…an openness to both sides of the war and to cooperation with Catholics
for the public good.” Three decades ago, the Baptist Association of El Salvador
was finding common ground with Catholics for the public good. True Christians
are to separate from evil. They are not to cooperate with evil for the “public
good.”
