So, it turns out that Trump was not the Messiah MAGA thought he was and the government is a terrible god. Who knew?

Character is destiny. It’s on full display.

His only metric for distinguishing good candidates from bad candidates is whether they genuflect to him.

This is all on him.

The last time an official national day of prayer, fasting, and repentance was proclaimed by a U.S. President or Congress was 1918. How about starting there.

Some thoughts on last nights election.

[Ian Kitchen @IanDaKitchen]

Random 'theological retrieval' thought...

Why is it that all the public "baptist de-conversions" go to...

Presbyterianism
Anglicanism
Roman Catholicism
Eastern Orthodoxy...

But few, if any, go Lutheran?

Our country needs to do more Christian missions work in Texas & across the country.

People have bought into the lie that Jesus was a socialist, there are multiple ways to Heaven, abortion is acceptable in some cases, marriage isn’t just between one man & one woman, etc.

Electing false teachers like Talarico & Adam Hamilton and Virginia allowing abortion up until birth, is a clear example that our country needs to be taught sound doctrine & evangelism should be our top priority as Christians.

God is sovereign, Americans. Rest in that peace tonight & let’s put on the Full Armor of God tomorrow and get back in the fight.

@DutchPresby @merelyjwright Same group to whom the Apostles said "repent and be baptized."

This is very well put by @colinsmo.

Whenever a Baptist feels the pull toward Presbyterian polity as the remedy for the chaos and “tomfoolery” of SBC life and/or corporate worship styles, I am quick to note—with genuine respect for the polity and convictions of my brothers in the PCA and OPC—that those very denominations exist precisely because Presbyterianism is no silver bullet. The PCA and OPC were born out of earlier Presbyterian bodies that had already failed to protect confessional integrity, and their General Assemblies today frequently function as mirror images of the SBC annual meeting: prolonged floor fights, contested interpretations of confessional standards, competing cultural and ecclesiastical visions, and the same underlying reality of popular sovereignty working its way through the system.

What makes either polity structure "healthy" is the spiritual vitality of the people inhabiting them. It is congregationalism all the way down. Every realignment, every departure over Side B, Keller-influenced megachurch methods, Christian nationalism, or some other contested question, re-proves the point. Polity can constrain and channel disagreement, but it cannot abolish the fact that churches and denominations remain associations of free people who retain the capacity to dissent, exit, or reorganize.⁠

The difference is largely one of venue and procedural form, not of substance. Popular sovereignty, as Althusius and the broader Reformed tradition understood it, is not an accidental feature of congregationalism; it is a natural law of human association that reappears under every form of church government.

[Colin J. Smothers @colinsmo]

I have great respect for Dr. Carter. But as per usual with this kind of move, his critique of Baptist confessionalism and worship does not engage the best of our tradition.

My church is living proof that what he is seeking is possible as a Baptist.

And the fractious nature of presbyterianism—even in and around the PCA—is living proof that it's actually congregationalism all the way down. Every time someone changes traditions, or a church "realigns" with another denomination, the point is proved again and again.

Popular sovereignty (congregationalism) is a natural law. Read Althusius.

This dude needs to be PERMANENTLY removed from the league. I've now seen several different clips of him grabbing facemasks and violently jerking their heads around backwards. This is his M.O.

He will literally kill someone. Bar him from the NFL.
