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
A rogue Baptist blogger who moth-balled his website in the wake of scandal has started writing again. Although laughed at and scorned by many, Peter Lumpkins has overtaken the “woke” SBC Voices blog in short order. The feat should not go unnoticed, as people are fed-up with SBC talking points and are hungry for original … Read more
SBC Voices, a poorly-read SBC pastor’s blog published a hit-piece against Tom Ascol of Founders’ Ministries yesterday. Don’t get me wrong; I’m all for hit-pieces, as some ideas and idealogues need (metaphorically) hit. However, I feel that if I don’t speak up about the vapidity, insipidness, and mental emptiness of that “blog” post I would … Read more
vic·tim·ol·o·gy ˌviktəˈmäləjē/: the possession of an outlook, arising from real or imagined victimization, that seems to glorify and indulge the state of being a victim
Lol. That’s the response that is due the recent SBC Echoes post defending the former Democratic Staffer, animal rights activist, Martin Luther King celebrator, Cultural Marxist, illegal immigrant amnesty-supporter and George Soros partner, Russell Moore. In polemics there’s a term called “website orthodox,” and it’s a term with which anyone capable of entry-level discernment should … Read more
SBC Voices is a place for regurgitated ideas, unoriginal thoughts, Southern Baptist scuttlebutt in the form of pumped sunshine, and a nearly endless droning on of denomination optimism, oblivious to the doctrinal downgrade and corruption that’s common place in America’s largest evangelical denomination. With material from well-meaning guest posters like this polemicist’s own big brother (link) … Read more
Yesterday, Dave Miller of SBC Voices posted a video of former Mormon turned Catholic, Marco Rubio’s supposed testimony of faith, in which Miller presumes to be genuine. Miller had this to say regarding Rubio’s testimony, …I believe I’d get excited to hear any presidential candidate give as cogent a testimony of his or her faith … Read more
The following is a transcript of small portion of Monday’s Pulpit & Pen Program, in which JD briefly discusses what he believes to be a mischaracterization of The Squirrel’s recent post by Dave Miller and, more concerning, the marginalization of legitimate concerns through soteriological reductionism. “I talked about this article on the program Friday (or … Read more
To kick off the show, I want to express my thankfulness that Dan Barnes believes and teaches that homosexuality is a sin and is a sign of ultimate depravity. I definitely agree with him, but considering that I don’t know the guy and have not previously interacted with him, knowing this salient point is served … Read more
Ronnie Floyd, president and CEO of the SBC Executive Committee, hosted an hour-long conversation on race on between himself and five men, where one of the panel guests, Charlie Dates, made some rather startling remarks with nary a rebuke or raised eyebrows to be seen. During one of his sessions, he criticized SBC college presidents … Read more
Abert Mohler took to The Briefing on Friday and made a fool of himself, showing himself to be either stunningly ignorant or purposefully deceptive when it comes to understanding the ecclesiastical makeup and attitudes of the Southern Baptist Convention. During the first segment, here, he made multiple forceful declarations that there were no women serving … Read more
John Lewis was an evil man and worse than a racist, but that hasn’t stopped SBC leaders from singing his praises and paying him undue honor. Albert Mohler, Russel Moore, the Gang at the ERLC, and a ton of other people and places have spoken of Lewis in glowing, flowery language, without one mention that … Read more
If you’re a Southern Baptist, you know the 11th Commandment. It has been chiseled into the stone heart of SBC leaders for nearly three decades, but not by the finger of God. It is simply thus… Thou Shalt Not Criticize Another Southern Baptist As someone who has been emphatically and explicitly anathematized from the Southern … 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
In an op-ed that we would have gladly posted here at Pulpit and Pen, Frank Wright, president and CEO of D. James Kennedy Ministries, warmed the cockles of our hearts when he took to the proverbial woodshed several organizations, entities and ministries that are definitely behaving badly and could using a good whupping. Titled Biblical … Read more
