#ChristianPrivilege is trending because of this disgustingly bigoted article. playboy.com/read/the-gospe… In it, @C_Stroop claims that anyone who disagrees with her liberal stances is immoral. Specifically, if you don't value helping illegals over following immigration law. /1
@C_Stroop The thing is, people support immigration restrictions for various reasons, not because of some fundamentally racist strain in American Christianity. We welcome immigrants, but legal limits are important for the health of a pluralistic republic. /2
@C_Stroop The real problem with the article has nothing to do with her oversimplification of the immigration debate. It has to do with her lies about Christianity. Here's what she says about Christianity and Jesus: /3
#ChristianPrivilege, like any other form of privilege, can be used for good & evil.
At its best, it's used to share the good news through word AND deed. But where it is corrupted, you see how it has wedded itself with self-serving agendas & power.

There is an increasing criticism of #ChristianPrivilege not because Christians have stewarded our privileges well, but because we have acted with hypocrisy. It is right for people to call us out when we are afraid to do it ourselves. In such cases, we can repent.
With that said, the days of #ChristianPrivilege are quickly diminishing. In this, we must ask ourselves, are we willing to be treated as we have treated others as a whole? If not, then maybe we need to pray and ask God to help us correct our course.
