Here we go again. Dobson is on Beck’s show and they are saying what was being said on the internet is B.S. If that is the case, Beck, your religion is full of LIARS, because the MORMON TIMES was the first that broke the news.
Dobson, you are calling the Underground Apologetics liars too. The statement prepared by your people was as follows:
When contacted Friday, a Focus on the Family worker at the ministry in Colorado Springs, Colo. confirmed that the article had been pulled and read a prepared statement for callers who had called about the Beck article:
“You are correct to note that Mr. Beck is a member of the Mormon church, and that we did not make mention of this fact in our interview with him. We do recognize the deep theological difference between evangelical theology and Mormon theology, and it would have been prudent for us at least to have pointed out these differences. Because of the confusion, we have removed the interview from Citizenlink.”
A-huh, sure. Beck you are being used again. Dobson is just making sure you guys are united against the Atheists. Then when he gets his way, you are going to get kicked to the curb like last time.
Dobson, again, why don’t you follow the bible on mixing yourself with what you are against? Just proving how hypocrisy leads Focus on the Family.
2 Corinthians 6:14 14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?

I’m not responding directly to the dobson/beck interview, but to your take on 2 Cor 6:14. The key word here is yoked. Yoked is not the same as talking to people. Yoked means to be in union with. Jesus upset the religious leaders of his day, the self-righteous pharisees, because h ate with “sinners” (which we all are) and “tax collectors” (who were many times theives). He was not yoking with them in hearty approval of their behavior. He calls men who are lost to follow him, and for various reasons throughout the NT, men either follow him, or the don’t because they love their sin to much (usually not seeing their sin for what it is). Basically, if you have understanding of the whole of scripture, it’s lying to quote it out of its context, and even though this is your blog to post on as you see fit, it doesn’t make it any less of a lie. Now if you just didn’t understand the context, that’s understandable as we all learn new things everyday. Take care.
i completely understand that it has to do with marriage, but in mixing ‘business’, so to speak, they are still mixing like in marriage. Now if you look at how i wrote it i didn’t state they should admonish what the scripture says. placing it on the post isn’t lying.
