Mini-Thread:

If you tell the left that their virtue-signaling culture exists solely to drown out their guilty conscience before God...

They get really really mad.

Which proves the point.
We have affirmation from Christ and the indwelt Holy Spirit.

Our consciences don't condemn us. Their's do.

Constantly.

So they need endless affirmation that they are in fact good guys.
When you refuse to affirm, just one time, one interruption of the endless stream of their gluttony of human affirmation, they go ballistic.
This because you are confirming the testimony of their own conscience against them.

This is why they lash out with such anger.

It's why Cain murdered Able.

Condemnation brings out the gnashing of teeth.

The End.
Addendum:

"Silence is violence" because silence is anything but silent.

The only Christianity, indeed the only Christians, that will be of any use going forward will be a Christianity that is capable of rebuking the idolatry of the State.

Statism and Christianity are antithetical to one another.

There cannot be two ultimate authorities.
We hear preaching against the idolatry of good things. Family, work, liberties, & Christian education.

Yet those things are not what plagues us.

They are what is under relentless assault by what actually does plague us.

Idolatry of the State.
When this generation calls out to their false god for salvation we MUST rebuke them...

"Put not your trust in princes,
    in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation." -Psalm 146:3

We do not cross-examine culture with another culture.

Neither do we cross-examine scripture with culture.

Rather we cross-examine all things, including culture, with scripture.

@ShaiLinne is asserting standpoint epistemology. A foundational element of CRT.
What does Paul do in Acts 17?

He exposes that the Greek's understanding of deity is entirely backwards.

God doesn't need to be served by human hands, rather it's "in Him that we live and move and breathe and have our being."

We need God, not the other way around.
Was Paul guilty of being captivated by a system of Jewish superiority?

Of course not, that's absurd.

This is the same Paul that rebuked Peter for the sin of partiality in favor of Jewish over Gentile brothers.

Thread:

This is an important concept to understand when fielding "abuse" charges from evangelical wokesters. To them abuse is how Meyer explains it here...
“A godless pattern of abusive behavior among spouses involving physical, psychological, and/or emotional means to exert and obtain *power* and *control* over a spouse for the achievement of selfish ends.”
If you understand the zero-sum power dynamic inherent in critical theory and intersectionality, derived from the Marxist oppressor/oppressed categories and framework upon which it is built, then you understand that "abuse" to them is not surrending to their demands.

Thread:

One of the points to make about the @RevKevDeYoung situation is that he was the poster-child for the beta-male approach to evangelical wokesters. Nice, winsome, fraternal posturing...
He did everything the softies demand of us with one exception, he wouldn't ultimately agree with them.

And for that, @dukekwondc still called him a White Supremacist.
"Put most simply, our view is this: While Reverend DeYoung’s subtitle indicates that he believes his review to be an expression of a theological project, (cont.)

Though you aren't wrong about Trump manipulating the media I think you may be downplaying the role of the internet, and social media, in the current political paradigm shift. It isn't just Trump, the whole world is moving to the right on just about every issue.
@drawandstrike My main contention for this is that the all-encompassing propaganda machine the left had built was largely made obsolete by the advent of social media.

Media, entertainment, education, higher education, bureaucracy, mainline religion all were militantly controlled by leftists.
@drawandstrike The result was decades of folks on the right who cut their teeth contending for their views in environments that were openly hostile to them.

Where as leftists sat privileged and protected from cross examination.

The right became battle-hardened.
