Smith<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The name&nbsp;<em>Judas<\/em>&nbsp;has been described as the most hated name in all the world. Except for&nbsp;<em>Shack<\/em>&nbsp;author William Paul Young and maybe a few exceptional others, hardly anybody ever names anyone or anything Judas. It is one of those forbidden names like Jezebel or Lucifer that people would never dream of naming their child, their dog\u2014or their cat. The very name denotes a sense of treachery and betrayal. After all, Judas was the one who openly betrayed Jesus and paved the way for His crucifixion. So what was William Paul Young thinking? Why does&nbsp;<em>The Shack\u2019s&nbsp;<\/em>most endearing character\u2014Missy\u2014have a cat named Judas?1 And it seems especially odd to have a cat with that name in a family where the mother\u2019s faith is described as \u201cdeep\u201d2 and Missy is asking sincere questions about Jesus\u2019 death.3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Heresy and Betrayal<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Young contends that&nbsp;<em>The Shack&nbsp;<\/em>is much more than a fictional novel. He describes&nbsp;<em>The Shack&nbsp;<\/em>as \u201ctheology wrapped in story.\u201d He writes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Please don\u2019t misunderstand me;&nbsp;<em>The Shack&nbsp;<\/em>is theology. But it is theology wrapped in story, the Word becoming flesh and living inside the blood and bones of common human experience.4<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is said in spite of the fact that Young\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Shack&nbsp;<\/em>characters and&nbsp;<em>Shack<\/em>&nbsp;\u201ctheology\u201d frequently mock God and God\u2019s Word with their cryptic humor and clever interplay. To be perfectly blunt, the name Judas fits right in with much of what William Paul Young is teaching. Like Judas, Young betrays Jesus Christ and biblical Christianity with his heretical<em>&nbsp;Shack&nbsp;<\/em>theology\u2014a&nbsp;<em>Shack<\/em>&nbsp;theology where there is, among other things, no Devil and no Christ. Neither of them can be found anywhere in the whole&nbsp;<em>Shack<\/em>&nbsp;story. The Devil is never mentioned because Young would have us believe that evil and darkness \u201cdo not have any actual existence.\u201d5 And<em>&nbsp;The Shack\u2019s<\/em>&nbsp;\u201cJesus\u201d is never identified as Christ. In fact, the name of Christ is nowhere to be found in the whole&nbsp;<em>Shack<\/em>&nbsp;story.6<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One well-known pastor gave an impassioned sermon about thirteen heresies he found in&nbsp;<em>The Shack<\/em>.7 One heresy he did not mention is perhaps the most egregious of all\u2014the panentheistic proposition that God is \u201cin\u201d all things. Incredibly, William Paul Young puts this foundational doctrine of the New Age\/New Spirituality\/New World Religion right in the mouth of&nbsp;<em>The Shack\u2019s&nbsp;<\/em>\u201cJesus.\u201d Young\u2019s \u201cJesus\u201d states\u2014\u201cGod, who is the ground of all being, dwells in, around, and through all things.\u201d8 But this is a false teaching. God is not \u201cin\u201d all things.9 For Young to put these heretical words in the mouth of&nbsp;<em>The Shack\u2019s&nbsp;<\/em>\u201cJesus\u201d is an absolute betrayal of the true Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Wonderful and Horrible Betrayal<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thus, as Young plays fast and loose with biblical Christianity, should we be surprised that he plays fast and loose with a name like Judas\u2014a name that perfectly describes his role in today\u2019s wayward church. What Young describes as \u201ctheology wrapped in story\u201d is really biblical betrayal wrapped in a cunningly devised fable (2 Peter 1:16).&nbsp;<em>The Shack<\/em>&nbsp;is everything that the true Jesus Christ warned us to watch out for when he said to \u201cbe not deceived\u201d (Luke 21:8). And that warning would seem to include authors like William Paul Young who think nothing at all about putting heretical New Age doctrines in Jesus\u2019 mouth and naming a little girl\u2019s cat Judas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The Shack&nbsp;<\/em>may seem \u201cwonderful\u201d to countless&nbsp;<em>Shack&nbsp;<\/em>readers, but in reality it is a betrayal of biblical Christianity and of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. In the words of the prophet Jeremiah\u2014<em>The Shack&nbsp;<\/em>may seem \u201cwonderful,\u201d but it is actually \u201chorrible,\u201d and yet the people \u201clove to have it so.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof? (Jeremiah 5:30-31)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>To read other articles from&nbsp;<em>The Shack<\/em>&nbsp;series by Warren B.
