Blocking a Friend Over the "Shack"

I have just been blocked by someone who defends the book and movie "The Shack"

When someone defends heresy to such a degree that they would unfriend another believer over it, thisbmakes me wonder about the salvation of those people.

All the things of the Lord that we write about is hardly noticed and left alone by most, but as soon as I expose the evil of an heretical book or movie, I am erased as a friend. LOL

Is it any wonder that the book and movie will be one of the best sellers. Is it any wonder why it is difficult for so many dedicated believers to find a fellowship group to attend regularly?

Books and movies are very entertaining, this is why they have the potential to deceive those who are not reading their Bibles. Even worse they are not asking God when they are shown the evils of their favorite book or movie, they are simply reacting in pride to being challenged at all.

It would be difficult for me to be friends with someone who loves heresy and will not listen to truth. It's one thing to disagree on a book or movie, it's quite another to throw another believer under the bus over it, dissolving the friendship over a book and movie is childish at best. Perhaps these people are convicted and don't want to evaluate or give up their entertainment.

Proverbs 14:15-17 "15 Fools believe every word they hear, but wise people think carefully about everything.
16 Wise people are careful and avoid trouble; fools are too confident and careless.
17 A quick-tempered person does stupid things, but it is also true that people don’t like anyone who quietly plans evil."
