    Training Pastors, Rabbis, and Imams Together - TIME

    When Jerry Campbell became president of California's renowned Claremont School of Theology four years ago, low enrollment and in-the-red books threatened to close the 125-year-old institution.

    No theological school that has anything to do with the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ would ever consider training anybody other than professing believers in that same gospel. The good news about this announcment is that now no true believer will ever go to that college in the mistaken belief that they will learn about God as He has revealed Himself to man through His son and His Word.

    While they are at it, why don't they just include a "school uniform" that consists of a clown outfit, complete with wig, rubber nose and big floppy shoes?

    The shadows of Ecumenicalism grow steadily, and are sweeping over the land...

    Yea, but anybody wanting to push a one world religion will.
