@williamwolfe@DailyCaller@amrenewctr Israel destroyed multiple nations on the way to the Promised Land. God spared Edom because the land was given to Esau and his descendants, not because of some veneration for border sovereignty.
@williamwolfe Even if you were not cherry picking and taking these texts out of context, why even use texts having to do with Israel’s unique task of traveling to and taking the Promised Land as normative political theology?
As I write in my article, Wolfe is from Washington. He’s from the political world.
Sadly, he’s applying partisan political rhetoric and strategies to God’s Word.
And in doing so he’s using God’s Word like a cheap prop.

@williamwolfe If Edom is a good example of respecting border sovereignty, why are not the Amorites also a good example?
Why leave out the reason God gave for sparing Edom?
Why leave out that Israel did eventually pass through Edom?
Gamer Boys, Twitter Trolls, & @KSPrior 🧵.
When women (especially high-skill women) enter supposedly male-only gaming spaces, some men feel a competitive insecurity when their social hierarchy is disrupted. It’s essentially a territory dispute. She’s a threat.

1. As a reminder, Owen doesn’t hold to an orthodox view of the Holy Trinity.
2. “Power dynamics” wasn’t invented by Marx.
3. The rest of what he’s saying about @R_Denhollander is slanderous.
4. For a level headed analysis of the issue https://t.co/fSJxPClgN7
As a reminder, Rachael Denhollander’s claim that David “raped” Bathshebah depends on Marxist power dynamics. David having power means he automatically is the lone accountable agent in that sinful event.
This is a problematic framework. David sinned badly, but he was no rapist.
John MacArthur is one of the biggest influences I had in my early Christian walk, and for that I’m grateful.
But I’ve also said goodbye to him having any kind of influence on me. And, sadly, for many many reasons. More all the time.
Although for most people there’s a natural revulsion tied to articles like this recent @TGC article (and a revulsion that I think is good and healthy) I also want to explain a bit more why this is more than just an “ick” thing. It’s also bad theology and bad hermeneutics.

The one where @JoelMcDurmon makes it very clear that @douglaswils’s cheap and safe repudiations of kinism only reveal what Doug is wearing.
Not much.

@PerfInjust@RevKevDeYoung Doublespeak.
Equivalence isn’t the issue. The issue is that if race is *crucial* to your understanding of ethnicity/nation, then how are you not engaging in racial separatism and racial nationalism?
