It’s no secret that Kirk Cameron has embraced the false gospel of American Patriotism. Clearly, he’s accepted postmillennial Reconstructionist ideals of Dominionism and has been championing the cause of taking back the culture in America for several years. It’s unclear exactly how he was led down this path of patriotic idolatry, as his past associations with … Read more
I doubt seriously that, though the acronym fits, it’s a duly inspired move of God. But we’re seeing just enough in the SBC of late to wonder if “Slowly Becoming Charismatic” hasn’t been a spot-on, if not previously used in critical, admonishing jest, preview of denominational things to come. It’s certainly worth pondering, particularly if … Read more
Since about 2012, Kirk Cameron seems to have associated closely with the Christian Reconstruction movement, being influenced by RJ Rushdoony, David Barton, Herb Titus and others, and distancing himself from the premillennialism of his Left Behind days. Christian Reconstruction, from which Charismatic Dominionism was spawned, intentionally seeks governmental solutions to spiritual problems, and this approach leads … Read more
JD Hall responds to David Wood’s attack on Pulpit & Pen. I awoke and stumbled out of my Sunday afternoon hibernation bunker to a flurry of messages in the combox I share with the Pulpit & Pen guys, and saw that Seth Dunn was being beaten like a red-headed stepchild in social media (sorry for … Read more
I awoke and stumbled out of my Sunday afternoon hibernation bunker to a flurry of messages in the combox I share with the Pulpit & Pen guys, and saw that Seth Dunn was being beaten like a red-headed stepchild in social media (sorry for the lack of colloquialism trigger warning for all you gingers out … Read more
David Uth, FBC Orlando, wishes in Sunday’s sermon that God would “take” his Christian critics because it would make things better. Uth, of course, was speaking of polemicists and discerning Christians who criticized the church for their LGBTQXYZ Unity Event in which they claimed that the gay community was the chief cornerstone, and laid hands on … Read more
“I have prayed for the next George Washington. I believe I have found him (in Ted Cruz).” Glenn Beck The Iowa caucuses are nigh. On Monday February 1st, voters in Iowa will gather together to decide what Republican and Democratic candidates to put forth for the 2016 presidential election.

The trustees of the Southern Baptist’s International Mission Board have adopted a new policy that removes the ban on persons who practice prayer through the use of a private prayer language (PPL). David Platt, pastor of The Church at Brook Hills, and New York Times best-selling author of Radical, has been serving as president of … Read more
Seventh Day Adventist, Ben Carson, has launched his appeal to evangelical voters in Iowa through his Revive714 events. According to the website for Revive714, it is a “prayer worshiping experience aimed at sparking our passion for prayer,” quoting the oft-cited verse 2 Chronicles 7:14 for its biblical motivation. Keep in mind, this is (1) a campaign … Read more
Recently, Pulpit & Pen broke two stories covering Anne Graham Lotz, and her promotion of a Jewish mystic as an example of how Christians should pray, and the new TBN television series with David Barton and Glenn Beck starting this month. Our popular guest poster, Brandon Hines’ article gets plenty of airtime. See the articles … Read more
The Past It is becoming abundantly clear that the Evangelical Intelligentsia has chosen their candidate in the 2016 Republican primary election, and it’s not the evangelical. It’s not even a Christian. No, it’s former Mormon and current Catholic (and still-protesting Protestants don’t consider that an improvement), Marco Rubio. Russell Moore has led the support for Rubio, … Read more
Some time ago I had E-Mailed David Jeremiah’s ministry about his connections with a few heretics. Here is what I said: David Jeremiah, I join many Christian Brothers and Sisters when I say that for some time, your ministry has blessed us. This makes it all the more harder to say. You have been aligning … Read more
An odd mishmash of religious folk gathered together in a steaming pile of ecumenical syncretism to anoint Donald Trump in prayer and blessings – a guy who doesn’t know if he “has ever asked God for forgiveness.” This is a real #facepalm moment for American evangelicalism. David Jeremiah – Southern Baptist Robert Jeffress – Southern … Read more
Remember Dr. Ben Carson, the Seventh Day Adventist that David Uth and other SBC leaders pushed so hard for to speak at the 2015 Convention? You know, the one that those pesky “Calvinistic” bloggers “bullied” Willy Rice into dropping from the line-up?
“I think the decision to disinvite (Ben Carson from the SBC Pastors Conference) is sad and more importantly wrong.” David Uth “The point about the Carson controversy is not what individual evangelicals choose to do in the voting booth. It is that events like the Southern Baptist Pastors’ Conference need to be campaign-free zones. We’ve … Read more
