Within hours of the MLK50 event going live, Southern Baptist church planters across the country had begun to complain online. For some, it was that Martin Luther King was hardly worth venerating, with his promiscuous and extra-marital sexual behavior (both heterosexual and homosexual) and his denials of Christian orthodoxy (including his explicit denials of scriptural … Read more
Trevor Atwood wrote a post at the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC), the Southern Baptist entity headed up by a former Democrat political operative who has been steadily leading the SBC toward Globalism and Cultural Marxism, but is widely seen as a softer, gentler, kinder, and more popular leader. For many in the SBC, … Read more
I don’t like to get political on this blog. I think doing so can distract from the mission. I want people to focus on Jesus and his church. This is a polemics blog and I don’t use it to polemicize political candidates on either side. Frankly, I think many Christians are more focused on the … Read more
The Democratic Party keeps running radically liberal candidates for president and can’t figure out why they keep losing. And so, they double-down with even more extreme leftists thinking, “That’s the trick.” Fail. Again. But that’s how liberals think. They double-down on their problem, thinking that’s the solution. For several years, thanks to the liberal influences … Read more
An acolyte of Beth Moore who grew up living a privileged life in an upscale white suburb, Kyle J. Howard, claims that white people like to hunt because they want to exert control. He claimed that if white people can’t exert control over people, they’ll settle for exerting power over animals. Kyle J. Howard refers … Read more
An Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) employee is calling for prominent conservative Southern Baptist leaders to be excommunicated from the denomination after they endorsed a book by one of President Trump’s spiritual advisers. Projecting himself as a friend of Barack Obama and hardly – if ever – critical of his policies, Russell Moore’s antipathy … Read more
“Earnest Attention is Requested for this Paper…We are going downhill at breakneck speed.” – Spurgeon, The Downgrade Controversy I Who would have thought that a Democratic congressional staffer, if given control of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, would try to liberalize the SBC? Just kidding. Everyone should have seen that coming. The man is … Read more
In this bombshell report by Pulpit & Pen, we will demonstrate how Democratic financier and organizer Zack Exley is behind the successful attempt to change the political ideology of America’s major evangelical institutions, ministries, and seminaries through propagation of what is known as “Social Justice.” SUMMARY We will explain—with a compilation of original sources, some … Read more
This post is designed to provide an extensive but not comprehensive list of articles from Pulpit & Pen documenting SBC leaders pushing so-called “Social Justice” upon its membership. It is designed to be simple and straight-forward. The Problem: Social Justice is a term invented by South American Roman Catholic Priests and the churches affiliated with … Read more
The leftist firebrand representative from New York, Andrea Ocasio Cortez (AOC), seems to have identical talking points as woke evangelicals when it comes to branding the term Communism or Marxism as racists epithets. It’s a scary thing when evangelicalism is identical to far-left extremism. Ocasio-Cortez, who literally advocates for socialized everything and promotes policies designed … Read more
I wasn’t glued to the Southern Baptist Convention live stream last week, as I usually am each year when the annual meeting rolls around. First, I’m writing from the lobby of the MT GOP Convention, as I’m carrying the proxy vote for my state senator. So, I’m busy. Second, as far as the SBC is … Read more
A few things we know for certain. Elizabeth Warren is not a Cherokee Indian. Jussie Smollett was not beat up by guys in MAGA hats. Rachel Dolezal is not African American. And Kyle J. Howard was never in a gang. Kyle J. Howard claims that he was secretly in the Crips gang for a couple … Read more
JD Greear, the Southern Baptist Convention’s Frat-Boy-in-Chief is like most typical megachurch pastors. He’s got the tight jeans, hip style, and pandering predisposition for political correctness. And recently, in a case of total self-unawareness, Greear signaled his virtue by endorsing an infamous Word-Faith heretic in order to attack sex trafficking, while simultaneously overlooking his own … Read more
In April of 2018, the Gospel Coalition and the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention (ERLC) jointly hosted the MLK50 Conference. The stated purpose of the conference was “to reflect on the state of racial unity in the church and the culture” fifty years after the assassination of venerated civil rights … Read more
Listen, people. These conferences are killing us. By “us,” I mean evangelicals. Revoice, MLK50, Together for the Gospel, The Gospel Coalition, the Passion Conference, Asuza, and so many more conferences inundate us, largely with things that are not good. Every week there is a new conference in which heretics share the stage with some otherwise … Read more
