A supporter of Pulpit & Pen recently wrote in to us, “A few years ago when Russell Moore’s ERLC and his praetorian guards at SBCuck Voices (Miller, Barber, et al) were pretending that it was ‘godly’ to advocate for the building of a mosque in New Jersey in a community that didn’t want one, I … Read more
Religious liberty does not cover child sexual abuse. This is something that Muslims coming to the United States need to remember. Regardless of what the Koran teaches about marrying children, it’s not legal in the U.S. and it’s not okay. According to Action News 11 in Philadelphia, police are now trying to determine if a … Read more
At the last count, 49 people lay dead from two Mosque shootings in New Zealand earlier today. Striking in the city of Christchurch, a terrorist attack was conducted by one who reporters say was a “white nationalist.” Tragically, the assault was captured live and played before a shocked world on social media. Even more tragically, … Read more
[Daily Wire] The pilgrimage hub of Saudi Arabia got hit with a plague of biblical proportions earlier this week when a massive swarm of locusts descended upon the Islamic holy site of Mecca. In several videos posted online, locusts were seen crawling around Mecca’s grand mosque, creeping their way across the stone slabs, providing a … Read more
Imagine the scandal. A former Democratic staffer who has been called “an open border zealot” by the press, who moonlights for a George Soros-funded pro-illegal immigration think tank, and who has repeatedly attacked border security as inherently unchristian, signs a brief on behalf of the Southern Baptist Convention to help get a Mosque built in New … Read more
As reported by the Baptist and Reflector, the Tennessee Baptist Convention’s state newspaper, David Platt issued an apology related to the International Mission Board’s (IMB) 2016 support of an amicus brief supporting the construction of a New Jersey mosque. (For more on the mosque issue, see HERE.) According to the report, Platt, President of the … Read more
With Russell Moore’s ecumenism in full view (the former Democratic staffer has led interfaith prayers with Sikhs and Muslims at the Becket Fund’s Interfaith gathering), it was no surprise when the social progressive leader of the Southern Baptist’s ERLC supported an amicus brief (put together by the Becket Fund) asking the federal government to force a … Read more
“Alexander the coppersmith suffered great harm as a result of our Lord’s gospel diminishing his business. I urge you brother to aid him by making offerings and gestures of good will for the peace of Ephesus and the cooperation between the pagan deity of Artemis and the church of Christ there. Surely there is no … Read more
Southern Baptists have been giving the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) approximately four million dollars a year. Along with promoting a radical animal rights agenda, commissioning research fellows who don’t think abortion is murder, and marginalizing SBC influence among the executive branch of government, ERLC president, Russell Moore advocated building a Mosque in a … Read more
In what seems uncannily like the infamous Friday data dumps by the current Presidential Administration, the Baptist Press dropped an article on its site on Friday, June 24 that is less than completely transparent. It leaves the reader with the incorrect view that the SBC is not involved in any way with mosque building … Read more
Russell Moore, President of the SBC’s Ethics And Religious Liberty Commission, faced a direct question from a messenger at the denomination’s annual meeting regarding his intentional support of Muslims in a lawsuit petitioning for the overturning of a New Jersey township’s ruling denying them a building permit for construction of a mosque. The First Amendment … Read more
The Islamic Society of Basking Ridge, New Jersey, has faced considerable red tape from the city’s zoning board since 2011.

Not so many months ago, Americans watched the current Administration create an intentional alliance with Iran, perhaps the greatest threat in the Middle East, and certainly the most vocal enemy of America. Those on the right bellowed a righteous, slack-jawed “what are you possibly thinking?” while many on the left hemmed and hawed searching for … Read more
If the Christian orthodox view that there is one true God is still held by Southern Baptists, the behavior exhibited by Russell Moore, President of the SBC’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission seems to seriously undermine its claim. By now you may know that Moore, via the ERLC, has aligned the SBC in support of … Read more
Southern Baptists, through their Ethics And Religious Liberty Commission and their International Mission Board, have joined hands with Muslims and others to help build a mosque. But they have to. It’s inevitable when you hold closely to the tenets of American Christianity. While Muslims across world want to see the demise of America and Israel, … Read more
