Bethel, Hillsong, and Elevation are cults that teach heresy. When we play their music (including Phil Wickham, Kari Jobe, Cory Asbury, Josh Baldwin, etc.) in chapel we are giving money to them via CCLI royalties. Bill Johnson (pastor of Bethel) has admitted that the reason for their music is to bring people into their church. This is their evangelism tool to bring people from biblically sound churches into their cults. The Bible says to mark and avoid false teachers and that we should not be inviting them in. Please sign this petition if you would like to stop the support of these heretical ministries by Cedarville University.

For more information on these groups and why we should stop playing their music, check out this paper that gives more information on the subject:

If you could please be charitable in the comments. This should reflect a Christ honoring discussion.

Also, to the Cedarville news sources. This is not about going to the market place and not asking if the meat was sacrificed unto idols. This is about worshiping The Holy God. These are heretics we are letting in to teach us. That is what worshiping through music is. I would love to have an open conversation with any of these news sources. Please shoot me an email (etanner@cedarville.edu)
