Telling kids they have to show the sign of tongues to have a genuine conversion is not just wrong & not just heresy (which it is), it’s borderline abuse. Absolutely insane any parent would tolerate such a misuse of the Scriptures. Saved by faith. Fruit is the sign. Not gibberish.
Pastor Zach invited me on today to talk ICE Protest, shepherding well, and some other topics pertaining to our occupation within the SBC. Click here to watch! https://t.co/s47dJcnarF
Yes. I believe that if a pastor ever commits adultery on his wife, no matter how repentant or in right-standing with church and family he becomes, he should still not be reinstated as pastor of any church. Above reproach is there for a reason and it speaks loudly to a culture already hating us.
They are not damned, they can be forgiven. They are free to use their gifts to serve the Lord, serve in ministry, etc. But not pastor.
If never trumpers got their way:
1) You wouldn’t see Roe v Wade overturned.
2) You wouldn’t have seen the end of Planned Parenthood
3) You’d have a liberal Supreme Court.
You don’t hear them talk about this much.
This was a really great (ahead of a lot of fuss and movement) and timely discussion between me, @joe_rigney and @NeilShenvi. Watched it again the other day and appreciate both of these men, and the hard work and thought they put into their takes/books! https://t.co/ytJ6HiZCKI
KKK dude #1: Hey is that a black guy over there?!
KKK dude #2: It sure is. Let’s go harass him!
KKK dude #1: Wait, wait… that’s no black man that’s a Ghanaian.
KKK dude #2: Oh never mind. (Shouts) you’re good my guy!

She was almost President. Men who spoke at T4G and 9 Marks not ten years ago, contributors at TGC, staff at the ERLC and the editor and staff of Christianity Today, they all wanted her to be President. Imagine hating a country that much let alone the church. Man.
Our podcast could be back anytime! We are currently taking a recording hiatus but know our last three years of podcasts episodes on Christianity and cultural engagement remain available on all podcast platforms, as well as our YT Channel: We Bear Witness Podcast. We will be engaging with thought provoking polls weekly!
Moralistic Therapeutic Deism and the musical artists who perpetuate it (Elevation, Bethel, Hillsong) are advertising a Christianity built around our struggle (hard fought, oceans, storms) rather than God’s glory and worthiness. This is why obedience and repentance takes a backseat to simply recognition. Being a Christ follower is far more than just a realization you suck or you’ve had a long journey. It’s about turning from your sin and walking in new light, Jelly Roll.
How much does obedience matter to God? Ask Uzzah.
One of the greatest one liner explanations of the difference between moralism and Christ following:
“If you take Christ out of Christian you’re left with Ian. Ian’s a great guy but he can’t save you from anything.” - Huff.
