9. Mark Driscoll – It’s a Shepherd’s job to be unloving towards the wolves, OUT OF LOVE for the sheep.
8. Steven Furtick – It’s easy to say, “Shoot the wolf” until people start calling you the wolf.
7. James MacDonald – If you want only enough of Christ to save yourself, then you probably don’t have enough to do even that.
6. Greg Laurie – If a church doesn’t evangelize, it will fossilize.
5. Mark Driscoll – God’s plan A is humility, God’s plan B is humiliation … to be proud is to pick a fight with God.
4. Greg Laurie – The greatest critics of video sites are people who haven’t attended one.
3. James MacDonald – It’s not wrong to have. It’s wrong when things have you.
2. Perry Noble - (on homosexuality) I think one of the reasons people joke about it is if that if the enemy can get us to laugh at something on a consistent basis, we don’t take it seriously. All media is now geared to make us think it’s funny.
1. David Platt – I think the best way to reach people is to exalt the glory of God.

I wasn't going to say anything, but who are "the wolves"? Unbelievers...atheists...I guess I don't get it. The whole point of the Gospel is to bring others to Jesus. Where in the bible does it say to be unloving?
Don't know, but Jesus seemed at His harshest and roughest when it came to the Pharisees, those who claimed to be 'in the way,' yet behaved like anything but. Read Romans 16:17-27 and you be the judge.
From what I understand the Pharisees followed the law and thought themselves above the others, but didn't have a true relationship with God...it was mostly for show.
I will read Romans.
Yeah, and Jesus wasn't very loving toward them.
I read Romans 16:17-27. In an analysis in one article it talked about how they would be "wolves in sheep's clothing." I understand what he meant.
For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.
