About this listen

Fourth-generation fundamentalist Carlton Pearson, a Christian megastar and host, takes a courageous and controversial stand on religion: he proposes a hell-less Christianity and a gospel of inclusion that calls for an end to local and worldwide conflicts and divisions along religious lines.

The Gospel of Inclusion explores the exclusionary doctrines in mainstream religion and concludes that, according to the evidence of the Bible and irrefutable logic, they cannot be true. Bishop Pearson argues that the controlling dogmas of religion are the source of much of the world's ills and that we should turn our backs on proselytizing and holy wars and focus on the real good news: that we are all bound for glory, everybody is saved, and if we believe God loves all mankind, then we have no choice but to have the same attitude ourselves.

The Gospel of Inclusion also tells the story of a powerful religious figure who watched everything he had crumble due to a scandal. Why? He didn't steal money nor did he have inappropriate sexual relationships. Following a revelation from God, he began to preach that a loving God would not condemn most of the human race to hell because they are not Christian. He preaches that God belongs to no religion. The Gospel of Inclusion is the journey of one man's quest to preach a new truth.

Wow!

Excellent story of what can happen when a Christian actually tries to hear God/Holy Spirit instead of blindly swallowing eternal damnation/tithing church dogma.

I was kicked out of my church years ago for questioning their teachings but didn't lose all I had.

Inspiring and about as biblically accurate a representation of God as I've ever heard -- and yes I do read my bible quite a bit!

God is Love and his mercy endures forever!

Preach on Brother Carlton!!!

A great read

It a delight to hear someone of this caliber expose his truth & transformation for a much needed audience...whether agree or not. Another voice sounding a message that many hearts have been waiting to receive.
Blessings

Highly Recommend

With a scholarly but personal presentation of this most logical and worthy understanding of Jesus’ work and the whole of scripture, My head is spinning. This is a must read for the church and one to be studied closely

Powerful and poignant

He addresses every flaw in the evangelical church with the simple premise of inclusion and it’s poignant. Bishop Pearson was a titan who ended up being cast aside by the church for loving everyone.

The courage to embrace truth

Bishop Pearson's journey from Pentacostal to the Gospel of Inclusion one worth studying. This gospel is not new, as the Bishop states. The courage to walk away from decades of traditional ministry and face the wrath of the religious establishment, makes this book all the more powerful.
The Bishop employs, biblical text and scholarship to support his transformation, this, a mature believer can appreciate. It is difficult to argue the merits of an inclusive gospel in the face of this evidence, when at its core is love. Christ after all teaches love.

Brilliantly presented and enlightening!

I loved hearing Bishop’s voice and his audio interpretation of his book. His revelations explained and supported his experience as real. I didn’t want the book to end as I was inspired into confident clarity as my faith has always been an inclusive one and I feel validated in my spiritual walk! Thank you Bishop Carlton for richly blessing us all with Gods Loving message!

eat the meat spit out the bones

how do you eat a fish? you eat the meat and you spit out the bone. it's one of those things that I learned a long time ago is that even though you presented with everything on the plate there are some portions that cannot be swallowed. when we talk about the gospel of inclusion Pearson lays out and intriguing and very well argue case. this book comes with the caveat that this will be a very difficult theological read for most Christians. Bishop Pearson clearly is one of the greatest apologist of our time. but with that we have to understand that he understands Christianity and does a great job of using the Bible to explain this position even if his position is heredical.

Excellent Book!

Once I qued it up I couldn't stop listening. As an Elder myself, in exile...I feel the pain of your experience, and unfortunately this is path to pursuing Truth. Can't wait for your next book
