NYC Pastor Jay Bakker: There Is No Hell, Being Gay Is Cool, Jesus Did Not Atone For Our Sins

By Andres Ortiz / 15 February 2013 / 59 comments

NYC Pastor Jay Bakker- There Is No Hell, Being Gay Is Cool, Jesus Did Not Atone For Our Sins Son of televangelists Jim and Tammy Bakker, Jay has called himself an “evangelical punk preacher” and pastors Revolution Church NYC. He has recently released a book called Faith, Doubt, and Other Lines I’ve Crossed. The book is said to lean heavily on the character of God’s love and grace but barely at all on the justice or the veracity of Scripture. Indeed, this punk rock “pastor” claims the bible leaves enough wiggle room for homosexuality and somehow the God of the Bible did not really do what the Bible says He did.

In an interview with the Christian Post Bakker explains his view that sin is “when we miss the idea of loving others.” He goes on to state that the church has been completely wrong on their view of homosexuality, calling the gay movement a “civil rights issue.” Bakker believes pastors should be performing gay wedding ceremonies, marching with them, and even ordaining homosexuals into the Church.

Oh, and that whole Jesus-brought-us-back-to-God thing? That’s not true either.

What do you think? Is Bakker correct here? Are we too mean? Should we be more like Jesus?

  He has no concept of what Scripture says, if he did he could NOT spout this heretical nonsense. It is abominable. He should actually try reading and understanding what Scripture says before commenting on it. He is indeed a tool of Satan. Liberalism in the church, like in government, leads to destruction.

apparently he cherry picks God’s Word for his own private interpretation (not supposed to do-2 peter 1:20) for a day and age when people want their ears tickled in this “politically correct” world. going on his “infamous” name for face time on the boob tube youtube circuit. great big uh oh…………….

The latest edition of redesigning God to fit personal preferences, a ludicrous proposition in the first place. It’s like the microbe dictating to the blue whale. If Jay is a pastor, I’m a brain surgeon. And BTW Jay, if Christ did not atone for your sin, then you’ll have to atone for it yourself. Good luck with that, especially considering the reality of hell.

That is called abomination in the Bible no matter that he believes it or not.

This pastor needs to read 1 John 3:4 to learn what sin is.

Another parasitic “preacher” making a living living off other people’s money – brings to mind names like Jackson, Sharpton, Bakker, Wallis, and others of similar ilk. Just some jerk trying to capitalize on his parent’s “fame”. He will probably end up in jail for fraud as did his parents.

Pastor of what–the east coast branch of the Disorganized Church of St. Mammon and the Almighty Dollar (aka Scientology)? He’s a punk alright. Someone smack him in the mouth to wake him up. He’s probably stoned.

This man has no idea what he’s in for in regards to propagating a false gospel and distorting the character of a thrice HOLY GOD! I will be praying for God’s mercy on this lost little man.

Betting your soul there is no Hell or eternal damnation, are you?
Boy, are YOU going to get the surprise of your death.
efred1

A Heretic, blasphemer. He certainly loves to dance on the edge of Eternal Damnation. Wait, he may already be in the Lake of Fire, but is too deluded to realize it.
“Jesus said, “I am THE Way, THE Truth, and THE Life. NO ONE comes to the Father BUT BY ME”" (John 14:6, emphasis mine) Clear enough; that means no Muslim, no Jew, no Hindu, no Mormon, no Scientologist, no Moonie, no Wiccan, no Druid, no fool, and certainly no athiest will even approach the Pearly Gates. Satan worshipers are a given, for obvious reasons.
Popeye

His next life stop will be very hot, smelly, and horrible if he doesn’t come to the Truth of the Gospel.
Jim Swavely

No Hell?? HaHaHa. But when he finds out he was wrong, it’ll be too late for him to tell us, himself, or anyone else.
Ralph

“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.” He denies what Jesus did and ignores God’s Holy Word, but then again what would you expect from a person who believes they are the final authority and not God?

I hope people are intelligent enough to read, study and meditate on God’s Word for themselves and stop believing the opinions of others who could very well be leading them astray. Your soul is much too valuable to blindly follow and believe someone who apparently is very distorted in his understanding and opinion of God’s Word.
John Beam

Just another in a long line of heretics. This one is very easy to spot, because he doesn’t hide his disdain for God’s Word. The worst are the ones who clothe their heresy in the truth.

well we know where he is going when he dies

What a freak. He obviously knows nothing about the Bible. This is what happens when you have crooked parents. He’s all twisted up.

An he knows all these because he was there when it occur right? By the way, Pastor of What is he? Nice try.

Imagine this for a minute, I having rectal repair surgery, because of my life style, the surgeon accidently nips a large blood vessel and your are bleeding to death. You see the ‘white light’ coming towards you and hear this heavenly voice, “I left many passages in the good book to read & understand. I sent you many people of love to place you on the path to righteous, and explain to you the difference between holiness and deceptiveness, but you did not hear, see or want to understand. You wrote this book of faith, doubt and admitted to crossing the lines of my teachings. I sent my one and only SON to die for YOU and yet deny their is hell. So your choice was to “Cross the Line…now see & hear HELL for what it really is…” as you slowly bleed out & the ‘white light’ turns to dark, you hear the screams of eternity & realize just how wrong you were. You cry out to GOD for mercy……
Just think about it…….
Truthseeker

Shame on all of you. Forget not that GOD wants us to “love” our fellow man. Everyone is so quick to judge and to quote scriptures or the Bible and yet fail to follow truth. Most of the New Testament writers never met or saw Jesus in their lives. They came long after Jesus left the Earth and wouldn’t recognize him if they bumped into him on the street. Not to mention that there are other books of the Bible that were left out by the church. Why? Exactly…..Be steadfast in your faith but judge not.

  God also told us to tell the person the sin they do and if they persist to leave them in the dust…so to speak, Even Jesus would not ARGUE with heretics, he firmly stated the truth and if they wouldn’t listen and repent, off he went. I’m not saying Jesus wasn’t caring, I’m saying Jesus would do the same with Jay and when Jay responded as the Pharisee’s and Heretics did…he would turn and leave, and go find souls to save….do u agree? We don’t hate the sinner, we hate the sin. There is a big difference!

Hmm…, Let me see; Should I believe God, who created the entire universe and everything in it, from absolutely nothing in a mere six days, merely by speaking it into existence. The same God who tells us that homosexuality is abhorrent to Him, or do I listen to some perverted son of a crooked televangelist adulterer, who tells us that he knows better than God Almighty (probably because some other homo told him)? Gee, come to think of it, It’s not that hard at all to know who to believe.

JusticeRebel

look at his picture…am I the only one noticing his finger/hand gesture and know the meaning? His eyes are evil, his teachings are wrong and misleading. He will have to answer to God Almighty and Jesus sitting at His right hand when his time is up…then Jay Bakker can tell Jesus to His face what he believes. Hope he figures it out and repents before that happens!

We are “more like Jesus” when we hold his word true. The Holy Bible, in no way, shape or form supports marriage in any fashion whatsoever apart from male and female. This young man is seriously deluded and in need of God’s awakening in his life. Fortunately, his dad is still around to confer with if he’ll only submit…

How far off base do you want to be? Everything he”s said flies in the face of what is known and taught. He doesn’t believe in Hell does he? Well, I have one way to prove it to him. Just dangle him over it’s yawning mouth for about 20 seconds, and he’ll change his mind–real fast!
Oh, one last thing… Don’t let go of the rope…

How does being abnormal become a civil rights issue? So if you want to be with say an aminal then this could become a civil rights issue? Maybe you want to be with a plastic doll could this become a civil right issue? Maybe you want to be with a vegtable is this a civil rights issue? Maybe you want to be with a machine is this a civil rights issue? All are abnormal, all are personal preferences, all are done by a very few humans so this makes it a civil rights issue? Sorry just do not get this this line of thought , it is just to abnormal. Still very tired of any of these humans trying to shove their agenda upon normal humans.

As it is said: “The fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree”, and this guy, Pastor or not surely didn’t have much of a start with parents like his. I’m betting he says what he says for the same reasons his parents did – MONEY.

Pastor Bakker has apparently been breathing his or the devils ether for too long, and sounds even dopier than his now disgraced parents. I will be looking for his sequel to “Faith Doubt and other lines I’ve crossed.” Perhaps it will be entitled “Unbelief and Self-Deception: My life in a Wasteland of Post-Modern Heresy.”

While you so called self righteous so called Christians are so quick to judge & condemn him and his Family. maybe try and remember he is a lost soul, we as Christians are to hold each other accountable but not judge & condemn. His Father did preach the truth but just like so many of us he got wrapped up in sin and lost focus but did repent and found his way back. So before you condemn look at your own life, your boozing,not going to church but to football games or the lake, How many have cheated on their wives or lusted, how many want what their neighbors have, how many are in debt or filed bankruptcy, Jesus looks upon all sin as equal in his eyes he doesn’t judge from best to worst. We should be lifting each other up not kicking them when their down. You call yourself a Christian ? What sin are you committing today?

Mr. Bakker has a right to his beliefs as an apostate and heretic. As a ‘pastor’, he will be judged more harshly due to leading the sheep down that same heretical path. He should be called out and and corrected as is laid out in scripture, which might at least leave some evidence of this garbage as heresy to the unknowledgeable, if they were to search. Of course, those followers of his will be suffering the penalty of this error as well.

The Sandy Hook Massacre

The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away:

"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich. News Editor,Townhall.com and NYT's Best-selling Author, Fast and Furious: Barack Obama's Bloodiest Scandal and Its Shameless Cover-Up

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E.
