The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such things come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.
1 Timothy 4:1-2
I’m trying to find information about Redeemer Church, the place were false teacher Tim Keller used to preach. I’ve been on their site and done some “googling” but can’t find answers the three questions I’ve been asked to research. If anyone has information regarding the following, please either comment below or send me an email. Thanks.
What is their stance on women in the pulpit?
What is their stance on the gender issue?
What is their stance on Replacement Theology?
Update 6/30: I finally found an email on their site so I just sent an email to them asking these questions. I wonder what sort of response I will get?

ReplyDeleteGlenn,
ReplyDeleteIt is a Presbyterian church, but not sure if PCA or USA. However, I believe replacement theology is inherent with Reformed beliefs.

Hi Thaddeus,
ReplyDeleteA Facebook friend, Marsha West, also suggested this video. The main problem in using this is that the speaker is NOT a member or in any leadership role and so doesn't reflect the position of Redeemer Church. She is there making suggestions, and she's misrepresenting Scripture to justify her position.
I'm trying to find something that specifically shows Redeemer's position.
Nelia,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you but not all reformed churches accept/agree with it. Which is why I need evidence as to whether Redeemer holds to it.

ReplyDeleteGlenn, I found the following article: https://www.redeemer.com/redeemer-report/article/upholding_the_necessity_of_women_in_minstry
ReplyDeleteIt affirms men as pastors, with women being in non-ordained deaconness positions.

Hi Wayne,
ReplyDeleteWell that link is 5 years old. The question is what is their current stance?
For some reason the church has failed to respond to me.
I wonder why they are so slow to respond? I would think they'd be happy to share their beliefs and stances with a fellow Christian, especially assuming you might want to attend or join their church!
ReplyDeleteMaybe because they are teaching wrongly?
ReplyDeleteWell, that's a possibility or they simply can't be bothered to respond, in which case I would think that dereliction of Christian duty is almost as bad as wrong teachings. In any case, there's something amiss at Redeemer because you should have received a response within a reasonable 72 hours or less following a holiday.
