I am not usually a boycott kinda guy, and to be honest, I have never seen the original Mulan. Probably wasn't gonna see this one.
But the utter hypocrisy if Disney to threaten boycotts against states that pass pro-life laws then PRAISE China which is committing genocide against the Uyghurs is stunning.

So, I am team boycott. FWIW
#BoycottMulan
Can we all agree that @Disney cares not about ethics, morals, truth, or even the genocide of the Uyghurs. They do care about money.

I am a complementarian, but this debate shows, to me, the need for an understanding of Christian essentials. If a doctrine isn't found in the Apostles Creed or the Nicene Creed, maybe we shouldn't make it an essential to the faith.
This is the value of doctrinal triage. I am MORE than satisfied with making complementarianism (in general - not some extreme version of it) a part of our confession as Southern Baptists, but when we make it a test of inerrancy or fidelity to Christ, we err.
AND, when we ignore clear biblical teachings about the qualifications of MEN to attack women who proclaim Christ, but don't do so according to our pharisaical patterns, we step outside the boundaries.

It is time for Christians who love God, honor the word, and believe in the Gospel to call on our brothers and sisters caught in this ugly spiral of Trumpism that enough is enough.
He lost the election. He lost the recounts. He lost ALL the court cases. Joe Biden will be our next president. I am not thrilled about that but it is the fact.
We are called to preach Christ, not to foment rebellion, threaten violence, and militate for secession. We are citizens of a higher kingdom and we serve its king.

I have never voted for a pro-abortion candidate. It is non-negotiable to me.

I fear though that abortion has become a bit of a dog whistle for evangelicals, or an excuse to avoid difficult issues.
What shall we do about the ongoing effects of racism? Vote pro-life! What shall we do about abuse, about other key issues? Vote pro-life. What about economic injustice, dishonesty, corruption? Vote pro-life.
Again, abortion is a key issue for me. But what does it say when we view racism as a minor issue, when a well-known SBC writer calls the open racism and chattel slavery of the founders "alleged" misdeeds. Not sin, just alleged mistakes.

I am deeply disappointed in @ronniefloyd who used the @SBCExecComm system to send out a stump speech for Trump's reelection campaign.

He is supposed to represent ALL the SBC - including minorities and those who may not be enamored with
He turned his back on SBC minorities to curry favor with the CBN and others.

It is stunning when the Executive Committee is turned into a partisan "Vote Trump" organ.
This was Ronnie's lowest moment in office. Putting the power of his office into a get-out-the-vote campaign is shameful, hurtful, and damaging to the SBC.

I have become a bit of a hard-headed codger. Over the years, I've noticed at funerals that when people talk about heaven, they speak of it as a giant family reunion. "I know that Grampa is rejoicing today because he is reunited with Grandma and Uncle Buford and Aunt Beatrice."
I understand the idea. We miss our loved ones and the idea of heaven is strange to us. Even John had trouble explaining it. Mostly, he had to describe what ISN'T there. No this. No that. But still, isn't heaven in the Bible about seeing JESUS and worshiping around the Throne?
We've been doing a lot of funerals recently, it seems, and in my codgerliness, I am refusing to speak of heaven as the great family reunion. I think we will have identity in heaven and there will be some joy in seeing one another.

The modern American church has many problems, but among the worst of them is our tendency to venerate pastors and Christian leaders in an unhealthy way.

We give certain men (it is USUALLY men) a level of authority that ought to be reserved for Christ.
We say we believe in the sufficiency of Scripture but we give an astounding level of hero-worship to Christian celebrities, megachurch pastors, or scholars.

When someone critiques them or disagrees with them, we respond as if Gospel fundamentals have been denied.
Respecting those who have led us and taught us is godly. Refusing to hold them accountable or hear legitimate criticism touches the borders of idolatry.
