which have brought together most of the well knownSouthern Gospel groups. ese include members of theStatesmen, the Blackwood Brothers, the Cathedrals, theGoodmans, the Speer Family, the Florida Boys, the GatlinBrothers, and many others. ose who have attended thesegatherings have put their stamp of approval upon theecumenical-charismatic-rock music side of Southern Gospelby not separating from those who are guilty of these thingsand by not liing their voices to reprove them.e Bible instructs us to “have no fellowship with theunfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them” (Eph.5:11). Revelation 18:4 warns God’s people to come out fromamong the apostasy of the last hours “that ye be not partakersof her sins.” COMPLICITY WITH DOCTRINAL ANDSPIRITUAL ERROR MAKES ME A PARTAKER WITHTHAT ERROR. 2 John warns that even to bid God speed to afalse teacher makes me “partaker of his evil deeds” (2 John11). I realize this is a very hard line and one that is completelyforeign to the thinking of this ecumenically-crazed age, butthis is what the Word of God says.I also realize that the Gaithers have produced some lovelysacred music in the past, but this is no excuse fordisobedience to God’s Word. When the Gaithers greet 12,000Roman Catholics, including many priests and nuns, asbrethren in Christ and “minister” to them in music, as theydid at Indianapolis ’90, they are partakers of the evil deeds ofRome.It is wrong to associate with those who walk in opendisobedience to God’s Word and to support them with recordsales and to bring their music with its ecumenical philosophyinto our churches and homes.(For more about Bill Gaither see “Marsha Stevens” in thisDirectory.)130
