"We were under a really tight timeline, and to turn it around in advance of the 2020 election, that was kind of our mandatory deadline."

It's almost as if Shenvi and Leeman are correct that the politics are driving the theology and not the other way around 🧐 web.archive.org/web/2021112214…

lol

It's definitely the theological conservatives who are swimming in political idolatry
"Lord kill me if I don't preach the Hopenchange"
You know that post that goes around every once in a while, "You've been kidnapped and you want to tell your followers, what would you say?"

Mine would be if I traveled to some art display related to a Republican politician, took a selfie, and unironically wrote "Day made."

Highlights from the Jonathan Merritt sermon endorsed by his father. Mark 13 isn't about the judgment of God, it's about recognizing "nothing lasts forever."

"The grass withers, the flowers fade," and then we <snip> the part about the word of the Lord remaining forever.
Jesus foretelling the destruction of the temple = "Hating change won't delay or deter it. The future is always breaking into the present, and it never calls ahead to ask permission. So we need to learn to love the worlds in which we live and, when the time comes, to let them go."
Edits Mark 13:4 to reinforce his "don't fear change" theme: "Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign that things are about to change?"

No English translation says "about to change," it's "be fulfilled" or "be accomplished," i.e. God's plans completed

This week in WPCs!

I didn't find this one, but it was a great followup to that viral picture of the Methodist vax-required sign:
And here's the YouTube version:
A reminder that wokeness WILL end up condemning the church fathers...

This week in WPCs!

The Dallas Theological Seminary clip from last week needed more time and research for its YouTube edit, and I think it's some of my finest work yet:
Some alumni apparently reached out for a response, and the administration completely ignored all the concerns about presenting a woman whose whole ministry rested on a claim of "possession" by a "saint" who is the "second God" as a reformer + martyr:
NEXT: You've seen the TGC quote libeling Kyle Rittenhouse. Do you know the council member who wrote it? Here are some clips from a recent talk that scream "physician, heal thyself":

"Right-wing evangelicals...They've maimed and killed Mexicans, Asians, black folks in the name of Christ, and they're still doing it...They're imbued with the spirit of antichrist...Many of them have called Trump Messiah."

Obery Hendricks Jr (skips are inherent to original vid)
"You talk about how a part of that Christian supremacist strategy has literally been a White House Bible study led by @ralphdrollinger...how is that dangerous?"

"He takes Matthew 28 and...reads that as: go forth and, really, subjugate them and make them Christians."
again, there appear to be some skips in the video that are inherent to their own stream, I'm not doing any edits aside from the start and end of each clip

Is this unity? 🦋
This is a pretty sizeable Dallas megachurch. Over 50 people on staff, according to LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/friend…
I'm shocked to report the conversation itself is pretty awful and there will be clips soon

Found the video of Francis Collins talking about how he stopped worrying and learned to love grisly abortion research (Christian Post interviewer doesn't use the "A" word, just "fetal tissue")
Cont'd:

Q: Do you use prayer in helping you getting there?

A: Absolutely...There's something about being deeply in prayer about an issue, especially if you sort of tie it in to God's work.
Finally, a clearly scripted question to help Francis clean up the mess after he was busted lying about NIH funding gain-of-function research.
