Dangers On Christian Radio
Many SOUTHERN BAPTIST PREACHERS are also prominent on nationally syndicated Christian radio. For example, ADRIAN ROGERS of the LOVE WORTH FINDING broadcast is very popular. He is a dynamic preacher and usually has a fine Bible message. The problem, again, is not so much the error that he preaches, but the truth that he refuses to preach and also his associations. For example, on September 14, Pastor Rogers appeared on the deeply heretical Trinity Broadcasting Network with Paul Croch. During Rogers' appearance on TBN, Sandi Patty sang a hard rock contemporary song, and afterward, Rogers complimented her on it! (Sandi Patty performed for Pope John Paul II at a papal mass in Los Angeles in September 1987.) By appearing on TBN, Rogers is putting his stamp of approval upon the apostate confusion that is represented there and he is making his listeners think that it is safe to watch TBN. Sadly, this is the type of unscriptural compromise that permeates even the most conservative aspects of the Southern Baptist Convention. None of them practice biblical separation.
I didn't hear any even one nationally syndicated Christian radio speaker plainly address the heart of America's problem, which is apostasy in the churches and cowardess in the pulpit. Once in awhile this will be HINTED at, but it will not be dealt with in a plain manner in which names are named and listeners are given clear information about the spiritual dangers that are on every hand today and are told to separate themselves from it.
None of this should surprise us. God described it long ago:
"Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." 2 Timothy 4:2-4
