If you are awake these days, thinking and considering, these words should shake you to your soul: "What made Barmen necessary wasn't that German pastors suddenly stopped believing the Bible. It's that they let a second authority — Volk, blood, nation, historical destiny — function alongside Scripture as a source of guidance and identity, and nobody named that move as the error until it had already captured the institutions."

Ninety years later, across the ocean....

20th century animation, if wielded correctly, could be the supreme story medium. Change my mind.

@EcciusMaximus @BishopJaxi The WHAT? Who? Current leader of the Protestant movement? You *are* kidding, right?

Dithelitism is good and wholesome. Few know this.

The Reformed (let the reader understand) are 100%, absolutely correct on the Doctrine of the Trinity and Christology. We would all - yes, all - do well to humbly study Nicene Trinitarianism and Chalcedonian Christology and align ourselves to it. P.S - Jesus has two wills.

I know my break from X is effective because I’m a year and half late to finding out Good Tweetman was doxxed and forced to leave the site. A tragic loss.

@CalebMPowers That has to be parody. Please let it be parody.

@Eric_Conn I think I see your point, but constructing a conspiracy theory is not the same thing as critical analysis.

James White's friend, Michael Brown, works for the Israeli government. He's a supporter of the Talmud and wrote a book attacking anti-semitism, Christian Antisemitism: Confronting the Lies in Today's Church (2021). He's literally taking money from Israel to push their propaganda.

Doug Wilson was recently at AmFest, has been defending the Talmud, and wrote an entire declaration (Antioch) to attack anti-semites in his own camp. Doug wrote a book defending a Dennis Prager-style narrative of modern Israel, American Milk and Honey (2023).

The CrossPolitic team went to Israel and has been trumpeting pro-Israel propaganda from its platform.

Doug and James teamed up with Joe Boot and Tobias to attack Joel Webbon & Ogden over "anti-semitic" memes and White Boy Summer videos (most of 2024).

After Charlie Kirk's death, Bibi Netanyahu went on a PR media tour, met with social media influencers, and talked about the need to push pro-Israel messaging through American media platforms. His primary targets? Antisemitism and what he called "The Woke Right." Millions would be spent in the effort.

Sounds strangely parallel to the key messaging of Reformed pastors and theologians, all timed up perfectly. It almost feels...coordinated...

If you can't start connecting some of these dots...

@gavin_adams @TomBuck Call me crazy or silly or whatever, but it seems to me that if you need a day of rest from your day of rest (a “Sabbath Sunday”), you might be missing the plot.

In Rom 7, heterosexual monogamous marriage is the basic reality that Paul points to when helping us understand our relationship to the law and Christ.

I wanna know what Christians endorsing annihilationism would say to the atheist who views “nothing on the other side” as a sweet relief.

[Dale Partridge @dalepartridge]

The vast majority of Protestant Christians have never submitted to the elders of a local church.

They simply go to the church that affirms what they already believe. If their beliefs change, they leave for another church that matches those beliefs.

It’s an endless cycle of insubordinate and self-centered Christianity.

My advice:

1. Study the historic confessions of the Protestant Church—The Augsburg, The Thirty-Nine Articles, the Westminster, or the Three Forms of Unity.

2. Find a fruitful church that holds to one or more of these confessions and stay there for life (as long as they do not stray from their confession).

She's not wrong. There's a lot of general equity to be mined even from ceremonial law.

Honestly I find both to border on insufferable, and I’m not entirely sure the reasons are so different.

Took me about 7 years to move out of this phase and into actual peace and rest. God is very patient and kind.
