Didn't Clark move from inerrancy, to limited view, to full blown Open theism, and even that salvation could be found in other world religions, not just in jesus and biblcal christianity?

Another smart mind was karl barth, who seemed to come right up to universalism, but shied away...

maybe can be to smart for ones own good!

Influential, Controversial Theologian Clark Pinnock Dies at 73

BY ERIC YOUNG, CHRISTIAN POST REPORTER

August 20, 2010|11:57 pm

Theological conservatives and liberals alike this week mourned the loss of influential and controversial theologian Dr. Clark H. Pinnock, who died this past Sunday from a heart attack.

He was 73.

As a teacher at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary back in the 1960s, Pinnock had directly influenced a number of notable Southern Baptist leaders including Paige Patterson, Jerry Vines, Adrian Rogers.

And many of those leaders, in turn, influenced others.

“[T]he gospel I believed came through preachers who were trained by Clark Pinnock,” recalled Dr. Russell D. Moore, dean of the School of Theology and senior vice-president for Academic Administration at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. “More than that, the nation’s largest evangelical denomination would never have turned back to biblical inerrancy had it not been for a man who would later reject the concept.”

“He led the short-lived movement toward ‘open theism,’ questioning the historic church’s belief that God knows everything, including the future free decisions of his creatures,” recalled Moore.

“He abandoned his belief that conscious faith in Christ is necessary for salvation, and began to see the Spirit at work in the other world religions. He denounced the concept of everlasting punishment as cruel and contrary to the nature of God. Unhinged from Scripture and tradition, Pinnock became the vanguard of evangelical innovation on doctrine after doctrine after doctrine,” Moore added.

shows what happens when the bible is NOT seen any longer as the inspired revelation of God, the complete and ONLY authority for doctrines and practices!
