I have often wondered about the use of Matt. 5:13-16 by some Christians who seem to think that Jesus had social or political causes in mind when he uttered the words, “you are the salt of the earth.” For some reason, we have concluded that Jesus was talking about salt as a preservative and that … Read more
If you take a look around a typical Southern Baptist church you will notice that almost everyone filling the pews is white. You will also notice that a disproportionate number of those white people are part of the fifty and older crowd. Members of the younger generation, it seems, just don’t attend church like their … Read more
“The job of the organizer is to maneuver and bait the establishment so that it will publicly attack him as a ‘dangerous enemy.’” —Saul Alinsky Yesterday, Texas pastor Dwight McKissic published an article entitled “If Russell Moore is fired, ‘Unto Us’ A Trump Baptist Convention Is Born” at Southern Baptist interest blog SBC Voices. McKissic is not … Read more
Dwight McKissic, a Southern Baptist pastor (and African-American) from Arlington, Texas has an article posted at SBC Voices that accuses me of racism for my views presented in the post entitled Fergson and the Soft Bigotry of America’s Leading Evangelicals. Taking exception with my views – and the views of Southern Baptist Pastor Randy White … Read more
I have been saying this for years. If Albert Mohler is going to be consistent in calling for the Confederate Flag and monuments to Confederate leaders to come down, he’s going to have to change the name of Boyce College and Manly Hall at Southern Seminary. I’m not a prophet. I’m only a polemicist. I … Read more
Bart Barber is an extraordinary example of a professional idiot. A derelict pastor and Quisling compromiser on nearly everything that matters, the man has sold his soul to the liberal front-organization known as the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. That is not news, but the ERLC has ordered churches to close based upon the government’s … Read more
Baptist News Global, affiliated with the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, ran an editorial this morning from Alan Bean, the executive director of Friends of Justice. The Friends of Justice website demonstrates that they espouse Liberation Theology as a means to promote so-called “social justice.” Alan Bean is also an apparent fan of racist Southern Baptist pastor, … Read more
Why Dwight McKissic is a Southern Baptist isn’t exactly clear. He’s a charismatic, believes in females pastors, endorsed Hillary Clinton for president, and holds to Critical Theory. McKissic is a race-baiter and Cultural Marxist who routinely terrorizes the SBC annual meeting with resolutions forcing messengers to vote for his policies or suffer looking politically incorrect … Read more
A quick survey of social media and blogs strongly defending Russell Moore and the Southern Baptist Convention reveals that they all have one thing in common. They are on the teat of the SBC spoils system and are compensated by Russell Moore. Like baby pigs suckling on the mother sow, these seemingly run-of-the-mill supporters of … Read more
To doctrinal liberals and theological leftists, virtually nothing is a “primary issue.” The rise of ecumenism in 20th Century evangelicalism demonstrated that the cardinal doctrine of togetherness takes precedence over the Holy Scriptures on almost every account. Demonstrating this truism is The Company Man™, Dave Miller, who owns and operates the nearly-dead SBC social justice … Read more
I awoke this morning and saw the polemics headlines coming out of the unofficial but more successful versions of the Baptist Press, Reformation Charlotte and Capstone Report. Blissfully unaware of most headlines reported on during my weekly Sabbath rest, I opened my eyes to see the following: SBC Pastor’s Conference speaker’s church does Satanic choreographed … Read more
Dwight McKissic, a token black figure in the Southern Baptist Convention who terrorizes every annual convention with race-baiting resolutions, says that being against female pastors is “gender lynching.” McKissic, who helped foment ungodly domestic terrorism during the Ferguson riots and railed against police officers, also voted for Hillary Clinton because of “other pro-life issues” besides … Read more
The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) has announced that a female pastor will be taking front-and-center stage at the Southern Baptist’s annual meeting. The female preacher/pastor will be speaking in a genre called Spoken Word, a word-based performance art that includes a manuscript written to be read out-loud. Last year, Southern Baptist leaders toyed around with … Read more
We have gone to great strides to detail how the Democrat leader of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC), Russell Moore, has attempted to redefine what it means to be ‘pro-life.’ Moore has commandeered the term, pro-life, and injected into it a bevy of liberal agenda items. The ERLC has largely abandoned the fight … Read more
At Pulpit & Pen, as you know, we chronicle the fads, trends, and phases of evangelicalism for the sake of studying the doctrinal downgrade and keeping a record for our posterity. In October of last year we coined the term flaccid complementarianism, a spin on the term now used by egalitarians, “soft complementarianism.” We also … Read more
